  • 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…

    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…

    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…

    Buffalo Wedding Photography | Ashley & DJ | Niagara Falls, Antonio’s

    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…

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? ♥️
