A VT Wedding on the Shores of Lake Champlain Paige and Raymond’s wedding day was, in my opinion, the way every single wedding day should be treated. It was FULL of sentimental family heirlooms, family traditions, and family history. Nothing was done for show or because they felt they had to do it because that’s […]

A Lake George Summer Engagement Session Those clients that know they want me to photograph their special day from day 1. The ones that can’t imagine anyone else capturing their special day. The ones who reach out AS SOON AS THEY GET ENGAGED. Those are my people. AKA – MacKenzie & Jordan. I’ll be honest, […]

A summer micro wedding at the North Hero House Operation “Catch up the EMP blog” continues with Amanda and Bryan! I remember this being the start of my love for micro weddings which became super popular after Covid reared it’s ugly head at the world. If you aren’t familiar, micro weddings are basically just full […]

A Glowy Summer Golf Course Wedding This is me, trying to catch up on the seemingly impossible task of catching my blog up on all of the amazing sessions and weddings I’ve had the honor of photographing over the past 3 years. The truth is, my business took off and blogging fell to the wayside. […]

An extended celebration on the shores of Lake Champlain What’s better than photographing a beautiful couple once? Getting to do it twice 😉 Claire and Matt were one of my “Covid Couples” meaning, they still went ahead with their planned celebration (just on a smaller scale) and held off on their larger celebration until a […]

A snowy late November engagement session With today’s subzero temps, how perfect is it that this beautiful snowy engagement session is next up on the blog! While thankfully it wasn’t in the negative or single digits this day, it was a bit chilly but completely worth braving the cold for! You honestly can’t beat snowy […]

I’ll be honest, I get a little nervous about how many images I’ll be able to deliver for an engagement session when the couple tells me they only want to wear one outfit. Different outfits give the final gallery more variety, that’s just facts…unless you’re Charlotte and Evan apparently! They ended up with over 150 […]

I met up with Charlee and Jake on the most beautiful fall day last year at our local State Park and we had a blast exploring and taking romantic engagement photos! These two were so much fun to hang out with, we even made time for a little rock skipping! Although I think Jake had […]

Janna and Eric brought the sunshine with them for their engagement session and I was living for it. We ended up meeting at Point au Roche on what turned out to be a very cloudy and overcast day, but it didn’t matter. With Janna’s beautiful citrus dress and Eric’s oatmeal suit, I was in photographer […]

I’m going to be honest here and tell you that it’s been so long since I logged onto my blog platform, I literally forgot the web address to get here hahahaha. I haven’t blogged in forever!! Honestly the motivation to do so just kind of went away with the whole pandemic thing as well as […]

I don’t know if it’s because this is my first engagement session in M O N T H S, or if it’s because Madison & Ethan are literally THE cutest, most photogenic couple, but I have A LOT of favorites from this session. So don’t say I didn’t warn you when you’re scrolling through and […]

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 […]

An End of Summer Adirondack Engagement Session It feels funny titling this post as “Engaged” because technically these two are already married! You see, Amine is from Morocco, which is where he and Hannah were married back in November. They are now planning a stateside wedding to happen THIS November for their American friends and […]

Point au Roche Engagement Session Me walking in the door from a session. Husband: Hey! How was it? Me: It was great! They are such a sweet couple, we had so much fun! Husband: …You say that about every couple… And he’s right!! I really do say that about every couple, but it’s because it’s […]
