  • 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…

  • Buffalo Family Photography | Laurie & Tom | Lifestyle Maternity Portraits

    May 2, 2015

    I am so excited to share highlights from my maternity session with my beautiful sister-in-law & her husband. We decided to do the shoot at their home, which adds such a lovely, personal touch to the images. We are so excited to meet the our new nephew, and he’ll be here any day now!

  • Buffalo Family Photography | Kerry, Jamie & Kerry | The Japanese Gardens at The History Museum

    May 2, 2015

    I had the pleasure of photographing my good friend Kerry, and two very important women in her life,  her mother Jamie & her namesake, Aunt Kerry, while they were all in town together. They haven’t had portraits done together in years, and I loved being able to capture them altogether, along with some lovely portraits of…

    April 27, 2015

    After a stunning (& really fun!) engagement session with Ashley & DJ, I had high hopes for their big day, and they definitely did not disappoint! Every element of their day was lovely, and thoughtful (especially the handmade books they gave to each other before their ceremony). Even though it was chilly, we lucked out with…

☀️ JUNE ☀️

Hi, hi! Join me as I commit to a full month of : 
✨ Keeping a camera on me (no client work allowed for this!)
✨ 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?!
