An early Spring Lake Placid anniversary session You know those couples that just belong together? The ones that let their struggles and hardships make them stronger instead of break them?

I remember meeting up with Emily and Jake at Emily’s family home and immediately feeling like I was meeting up with some old friends. I felt like we had so much in common, like the fact that they both are in the photo/video world! They actually met at an advertising agency as TV producers which […]

A cold November orchard wedding I was so excited to get this inquiry! Even though it didn’t end up being what they originally planned, it still turned out to be the perfect day.

A Heyworth Mason Park Fall Family Session Being the designated family photographer for a family, yea that’s the ultimate compliment and this family has graciously given me that title.

A Rustic Masquerade Wedding If I’m being an optimist, one of the things I didn’t mind when it came to Covid and weddings was the fact that it allowed me to see some couples twice! I had a handful of couples who decided to move forward with their ceremony with a very small guest list […]
