A Downtown Plattsburgh Fall Engagement Session Mother Nature was not cooperating during a span of time when I had countless sessions, isn’t that how it always works?

A Windy Fall Point au Roche Engagement Session The weather in Upstate NY this time of year is the definition of the phrase, “expect the unexpected”. Is it going to be snowing or 75 degrees? No one knows until day of, especially this time of year. But instead of snow, we were looking at massive […]
