  • 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…

  • Buffalo Wedding Photography | Ashley & Joseph | The Foundry Suites, Albright Knox, Hotel Henry

    December 17, 2017

    Last month, we celebrated with this gorgeous pair! We had the most wonderful day with Ashley & Joe, in spite of the below-freezing temps! Don’t let the autumnal sunlight in their photos fool you; it was absolutely bitter outside. But, they were total troopers, and kept each other smiling throughout their day. For their…

  • Buffalo Wedding Photography | Brian & Derrick | The Mansion on Delaware Avenue, Delaware Park, Albright Knox

    December 10, 2017

    Brian & Derrick are two of the kindest folks I’ve had the pleasure of documenting, and I am absolutely thrilled to be sending their beautiful images out into the world right now. They are such genuine sweethearts, who are deeply in love, and downright giddy for each other. Could a wedding photographer ask for…

  • Buffalo Wedding Photography | Anna & Jimmy | Hotel @ The Lafayette, Our Lady of Sacred Heart, Greenhouse Room, Ellicott Square Building

    December 4, 2017

    We ended our October weddings with Anna & Jimmy! They were such a joy to work with from the start, and I knew their wedding day would be one to remember. I started with prep at Hotel @ The Lafayette, while Steve started with the boys. We kept hoping the rain would hold off,…

    Buffalo Wedding Photography | Michael & Vicky | Buffalo History Museum, Japanese Gardens, Silos, Erie Basin Marina, Bacchus

    November 12, 2017

    I was so excited when Vicky & Michael told me about their plans for a small, simple Thursday wedding. They opted to focus on their closest family and friends, and exchange a bridal party for more time together during an extended photo session! Vicky got ready at Salon Elizabeth, where she was totally pampered with…

Walking through a giant camera obscura, learning about light science, sketching in the old art room, watching an improv show in the same auditorium I sat through dozens of art history lectures in & SO much more… Headed back to the my alma mater yesterday to explore the Imagine #RIT: Creativity and Innovation Festival with my kiddos & had a blast! 🧡🐅🖤 Their highlights were all of the robotic demos, glass blowing, pre-vet program classroom & video game design areas! This event happens once a year, at the end of April & should definitely be on your radar for next year. It’s HUGE, completely free & open to the public 🎉 Come see what life is like at Brick City 😜 #imaginerit #rochesterinstituteoftechnology #rochester #rochesterny

2️⃣0️⃣ years ago, almost every day, I would sneak out of the darkroom & over to Java Wally’s on the #RIT campus for a coffee break. I would sit at a little café table & daydream about life after college… 📸 Running my own business, having a beautiful studio & making a living from my photography, & most importantly, sharing all of that with people that I loved. Today, during the Imagination Festival, I sat at that same little table, in that same café, across from my MOST beloved humans ❤️ We shared hot cocoa & some of those dreams. Pretty incredible to press pause on a busy life & see just how fast the time has moved; to be placed back in an exact seat where you once absolutely *yearned* for everything you currently have. Two decades have flashed by (I mean, my babies are now closer to college than I am 😳), but the gratitude of this wild journey has never missed me. As always, thanks to everyone who’s been a part of it 😘 What a ride! Can’t wait to see what the next twenty years bring 🎉🎉🎉 [Slide 1 : Random college prints & a copy of the school art & lit magazine that I was editor-in-chief for - we were so avant-garde that we insisted it be the first unbound issue 🤣😜] [Slide 2 : The 41st edition, still going strong, picked up today] [Slide 3 : My two best creations, my lifetime masterpieces!!] [Slide 4 : My freshman photo class, just because I was so very 2003 & it cracks me up. That hair!🤪]
