  • Buffalo Family Photography | An Afternoon With Tinka, Smith, Tessa, Teagan, Jillian & Sean | Part 1

    March 22, 2018

    For years now, I’ve been encouraging more candid, lifestyle-based shoots, and love how my clients have responded. Before any family session, I chat with the parents about expectations for posing the kiddos (ie. don’t expect them to pose). Instead, we encourage the wild babes to be themselves. We play in the backyard, run on the…

  • We’re celebrating TEN years with a big announcement!

    March 2, 2018

    Ten years ago, I graduated from college, started my first & only full-time job, quit after three months & decided I would never work for anyone else again. I opened my first credit card, bought an iMac, Adobe license, & Canon Rebel. All of it was so thrilling & so terrifying; I felt like I…

  • Buffalo Engagement Photography | Natalie & Chris | Crag Burn Golf Course Winter Session

    January 28, 2018

    Another beautiful winter engagement session! I just love when my couples are up for a bit of adventure, and don’t mind the cold weather. Natalie, Chris, & I lucked out with a stunningly sunny (albeit freezing) January day for their e-sesh. We chased the last little bit of snow all the way to East…

    Buffalo Winter Engagement Session | Krista & Justin | Remedy House, Delaware Park

    January 12, 2018

    Right after New Years, I kicked off my 2018 shooting schedule with Justin & Krista! We met at Remedy House, the newest addition to the Five Points neighborhood on the West Side. This amazing little coffee shop is such a dream, and was the perfect spot to warm up before we headed out into…

  • Buffalo Wedding Photography | Tanya & Wally | Hotel @ The Lafayette & Dnipro Center

    December 20, 2017

    We ended our 2017 wedding season in the most magical way! We had a double-header weekend with two incredible couples, and two truly unique weddings. We loved that Tanya & Wally’s wedding highlighted aspects of their blended Ukrainian, Polish, and Hawaiian heritages. Their day was also made extra special thanks to the presence of…

For 20 years now, you’ve invited me into your home
For 20 years now, you’ve invited me into your homes, your celebrations, your most intimate moments... I’ve joyfully built an entire business around documenting your love. Through this, I’ve been a part of every kind of family. I’ve seen the undeniable & downright wonderful human connections that tie us all together. It’s the best part of my job 📸

Maybe you’ve been my client, or maybe we’ve never even met, but we’re connected. Your heart beats like mine, & chances are, it’s breaking like mine right now too.

Every Family is a Family. 

Every Mother is a Mother to all... 

And I can promise : This is not the America I will leave behind for my children, or yours.

I stand in solidarity with everyone who is terrified, overwhelmed or lost right now. I stand with everyone who knows we deserve better. I stand with the businesses that are closing today for the strike & with the small businesses that are staying open, providing shared spaces & keeping their lights on, but still speaking out. Proud of you ♥️

👉🏻 Haven’t said a word yet? Not sure how to start? 

I’ve included some posts here to share, ranging from gentle to how-I-really-feel... Share what resonates today. Expand on that tomorrow. Tag & follow the creators.

Take action, love your neighbors & celebrate our undeniable human connections. We are one; don’t ever let the system trick you into thinking otherwise.

Community over cruelty, always ✌🏻✌🏼✌🏽✌🏾✌🏿 

With lots of love & lots of rage, 
e
