  • Sneak Peek : Lauren & Nick 12.13.14 | Buffalo Wedding Photography

    December 16, 2014

    Have barely jumped into the edits from our last gorgeous wedding, but couldn’t wait to share some sneak peeks! We loved getting to share the day with Lauren & Nick, chilly winds, dark weather & all! Used to shooting earlier in the day or with a lot of sunlight, this wedding gave us the…

  • Hali | Buffalo Maternity Photography | Downtown & Times Beach

    December 13, 2014

    I’ve had the pleasure of photographing Hali a few times now, and was so excited to receive her email sharing the news of her pregnancy & requesting a maternity session! We had so much fun starting at her condo then moving to Times Beach Nature Preserve and ending at Erie Basin Marina! Somehow, at…

  • Christine, Ryan & Ella | Buffalo Family Photography | Elmwood Maternity Session

    December 12, 2014

    Excited to share shots of my sister-in-law & her beautiful little family on this blog post! We did a small portrait session at their home and along Chapin Parkway to capture their last few days as a family of three, and celebrate the upcoming arrival of their fourth member (due any day now!) My niece Ella is a…

  • Hanretty Family | Buffalo Portrait Photography | Hotel Lafayette

    December 7, 2014

    Remember this sweet family? Liz & Ryan have worked with me quite a few times, from their engagement to wedding to maternity session to newborn pics to family photos & more! I was also lucky enough to photograph Ryan’s sister Caitlin’s wedding, so know the family well and was excited to see them all…

  • Kristin, Chris & Mason | Buffalo Family Photography | Hotel Lafayette

    December 6, 2014

    One of the best parts of this time of year is definitely getting to see some of my out-of-town clients again when they come home for the holidays! I was so excited when Kristin emailed me for another portrait session, now that her son Mason was older, and they were expecting #2! We were initially…

☀️ 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?!
