    Buffalo Wedding Photography | Caitlin & Bryan | Hotel Lafayette, Greenhouse Room, City Hall, Niagara Square, Forest Lawn

    October 13, 2015

    Caitlin & Bryan had a wedding like none other. They told me right away that they wanted their day to be different & I, of course, loved hearing this! One of the first big differences was that they skipped a traditional bridal party, and instead brought 22 members of their families along for the trolley ride. There…

    October 9, 2015

    I hopped across the city with Carly & Dave for their e-session, chasing the sunlight as it moved. We started at the Richardson Complex for a quick series before heading over the Cobblestone District, with a very short stop at the Ohio Street bridge before ending with a gorgeous sunset over Lake Erie at…

    Sarah & Ryan recently moved to East Aurora from NYC (talk about a BIG change!) and wanted to show off their quaint new town in their engagement session 🙂 So we chose to spend our time wandering Knox Farms with their precious pup, Lady. The sunshine was perfect & this session was a dream!…

  • Buffalo Wedding Photography | Jessica & Jean | Downtown, Shea’s, Samuel’s Grand Manor

    You might remember Jessica & Jean from their gorgeous summer e-session earlier this year! As I was editing those photos, I knew their wedding would be epic.

06.30 | Last day of June, soaking in country air at my favorite place 😍 

It’s wonderful to reflect on how this practice brought me back to the basics… I haven’t created non-client/non-iPhone photos in so long. It was a joy to slow down + *play* with color, composition + creating, without an end goal in mind.

As a true portrait photographer, it was a challenge at first to find inspiration in non-human subjects - YOUR energy is such a big part of my work! This practice has retrained my brain + I find myself pausing to enjoy little vignettes wherever I go now 🤩 

It’s a gift to see the world so beautifully + perhaps, you’ll try this too? ♥️
