A Wildflower Wedding in the Green Mountains of Vermont I knew when I first stepped onto the venue property for the welcome party the night before, that this wedding day was going to be beautiful.

A Coastal Inspired Lake George, NY Engagement Session My favorite form of marketing is word of mouth, because it leads to clients like Mackenzie and Andrew. I’ve been doing photos for Andrews brother Eric and his wife Katelin for years, which is what brought Andrew and Mackenzie my way. We had such a great time […]

Then I had my first baby, and everything shifted… My priorities were now vastly different, the work environment was in […]

A white & green summertime wedding at Brookside Barn I remember the feeling of joy and accomplishment flooding through my tired body as I walked through my front door after I returned home from this wedding.

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. When Lysandra said her and Aaron were planning a small wedding at Rulfs Orchard, I couldn’t say yes fast enough! Aside from […]

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 […]

This wedding was so special to have been a part of! Not only was the venue where my husband and I were married, it was also the wedding of the daughter of my favorite college professor! I loved every minute of this day, even the rain couldn’t dampen any moods. It was an intimate celebration […]

One thing you should know about me if you’re considering hiring me as your wedding photographer is, I don’t particularly enjoy Pinterest shot lists. What do I mean by that? Well chances are, you’ve seen some gorgeous wedding photos on Pinterest that you want to recreate in your own wedding images. What starts as a […]

This couple, I have no words but I will do my best to express just how much being a part of their day meant to me. It started when I showed up to the most gorgeous house I’ve ever been inside. This is where Emily and her girls were getting ready. Shortly after I greeted […]

Lesson #1 to any new photographers out there…ALWAYS show up to wedding days EARLY! My rule of thumb is to arrive no less than 30 minutes early to each wedding to account for traffic, weather, location scouting, direction mishaps, etc. This was one of those wedding days I’m so glad I set this rule for […]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I’m loving these elopement / micro weddings! They are so intimate and less about the showy stuff, more about the family bonds and I am here for it! One of the things I loved about my own wedding was the size. I knew pretty much everyone […]
