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 […]

I had done it. I landed my “dream desk job”. I thought it paid well. I started with 4 weeks of vacation time. Paid holidays. Fun atmosphere. Room for growth. I had hit the jackpot. Then I had my first baby, and everything shifted… My priorities were now vastly different, the work environment was in […]

A Humid June Boathouse Wedding I have a few Friday and Sunday weddings this year which I am so excited about. I love when my couples decide to switch it up and celebrate their day on a “nontraditional” weekday. However, I’m so incredibly thankful Ashley and Brandon decided on a Saturday. Unbeknownst to them when […]

A Picture Perfect June Wedding Day The feelings surrounding the first wedding of the season are hard to describe. Excitement Anxious Joyful Nervous It’s somehow all bottled up into one whole emotion I now know to expect come every season. When it first hit, I honestly thought I wasn’t cut out for this career, but […]

This was such a fun day to be a part of! It was also my first time photographing a wedding at this particular venue. I had second shot here the month prior but it wasn’t one of my couples so it doesn’t count, ha! This day went off without a hitch, the ONLY downfall for […]

You know when you meet a genuine sweet soul and you just think to yourself, “wow, if everyone were more like this, the world would be such a better place…” well that’s how I felt when I first met Cammey. To know her is to love her. She is honestly one of the sweetest humans […]

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 […]

Where do I even begin this blog post?! Madison and Ethan were my first official wedding for 2021, and it didn’t disappoint! Everything from her dress, to the tuxes, to the florals, to the venue, to the dancing, all of it was just perfect! I had been looking forward to this day ever since I […]

I’ll be honest, I wasn’t sure what 2020 weddings were going to look like after the shut down, then the slow re-opening and allowing of small gatherings, then the mask mandate. I didn’t have high hopes simply because this is all new to everyone but really, these weddings are no different than elopements and elopements […]
