  • Buffalo Family Photography | Alicia & Sandy | Mother’s Day in the Japanese Gardens

    May 13, 2015

    I was so thrilled when Alicia & I connected on Friday to plan a last-minute session with her mom, Sandy. This talented mother-daughter duo own William’s Florist, one of the absolute best in Buffalo, and we couldn’t think of a better place to capture portraits of these two florists than amongst the cherry blossoms! The…

  • Buffalo Engagement Photography | Erik & Marissa | Cobblestone, Gallagher Pier & Tifft Nature Preserve

    May 9, 2015

    A dark, stormy and cloudy day didn’t stop us from getting outside & playing for Erik & Marissa’s e-session last week! We hit three of Buffalo’s most lovely spots, including the Cobblestone District, Gallagher Pier & Tifft Nature Preserve, which gave us a great array of backdrops for these shots. We were freezing, and…

  • Buffalo Family Photography | Vivian, Eric & Charlotte | Japanese Gardens at The History Museum

    May 4, 2015

    Thrilled to be able to shoot outside again (with comfortable, warm & cozy clients), I’ve been going non-stop this past week! One of the highlights from my recent sessions was definitely my time with Charlotte and her parents. Five years old, and full of joy, energy and a whole lotta love, this little lady made…

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
