  • 10.13 | Vanessa & Greg E-shoot

    October 14, 2010

    Although we missed the sunshine, Vanessa, Greg & I had fun running around Delaware Park soaking in the gorgeous autumn colors before heading over to Buffalo State to grab some shots on the bench  where Greg proposed!

    October 14, 2010

    Jessica, Jeremy & I met at Delaware Park to grab some shots with the fall leaves; we coudn’t believe the crazy clouds that appeared over Hoyt Lake at the beginning of our shoot. We had a great time & get to do it all over again for their fall wedding next year!

  • 10.09 | Amy & Michael Wedding

    October 9, 2010

    Hooray for sunshine!!! We’ve had so many gloomy days lately, it was great to have an entire wedding full of luscious, warm light. For Amy & Michael’s photos, we stopped at the Falls, where we were instantly surrounded by tourists with iPhones (pretty sure you guys are ALL over the internet already haha). We…

Also, when I was 16, my bestie & I became obsessed with Petty (we worked in the detail shop at @deltasonicwash & it’s all the older dudes would play 🤘🎸) We’d aimlessly drive around - gas was basically free back then 🤪 - windows down, volume UP, singing our little hearts out 😍 I can feel those moments when I hear his songs now!

Do you have a song or musician that just brings ya right back?

☀️ JUNE ☀️

Hi, hi! Join me as I commit to a full month of : 
✨ Keeping a camera on me (no client work for this part)
✨ Developing a joyful workflow of reviewing images
✨ Posting that day’s favs, every night, without overthinking the ideal timing/aesthetic of the grid/feeling forced into trends/remembering holidays/the caption/getting overwhelmed & moving on 🤣

This is a practice I haven’t done in years & it’s time 😘 Tag along?

Have you ever been to the Allegany Nature Pilgrima
Have you ever been to the Allegany Nature Pilgrimage? 🌿 It’s one of my favorite annual events 🤩 Naturalists, hikers, herbalists, birders & all kinds of outdoor enthusiasts gather at the park for a whole weekend’s worth of unique programming! 

Typically, I plot out adventurous activities, but this year I opted for a more restorative schedule ✌️ I spent my Saturday doing fireside yoga, forest-bathing with a group of lovely ladies, learning about homeopathy, relaxing with some watercolors, enjoying a mushroom hike & trying basic orienteering! 🥾🌲 

There are dozens upon dozens of other activities to choose from at this family-friendly & affordable event. Will I see you there next year?!

Fellow Creatives : How do you stay inspired? 🤔 

I have daily practices in place, but I think quarterly art-filled-mini-roadtrips are the real secret 🤩🤩🤩 My 36 hour whirlwind May getaway to PGH did the trick! 😍 After time at some of my favorite galleries, real good eats, a candlelit art-making session, a night of jazz poetry & lots of long, aimless walks with my camera, I have so many soon-to-be projects swirling around 🎉

Year Ten of this city for me & still haven’t seen it all; anything I should add to my list for next time?!
