  • Buffalo Senior Portraits | Alexus | Hotel @ The Lafayette & Downtown

    January 23, 2019

    Alexus wanted cool, city shots for her senior portraits, and we decided to explore around my studio for her session! We shot into the dusk, on rooftops and around Lafayette Square. I loved that she was up for anything, and brought her outgoing personality to our shoot. Senior sessions are some of my favorite,…

  • Buffalo Newborn Photography | Baby Daniel | At-home Lifestyle Session

    December 26, 2018

    I had the pleasure of hanging with Baby Daniel and his family at their home when he was just a week or so old! I love these sessions, not only because I get my baby-fix, but because they are so relaxed for all involved. Instead of forcing frilly outfits and poses, we let the…

    Personal Work | The Journey

    December 3, 2018

    Last November, I received a call that my grandfather was ill and had been admitted to the hospital. He’s always been one of the most important people in my life, so without hesitation, I booked a one-way ticket for my son & I, and headed to Wisconsin. I wasn’t sure how long I’d be…

  • Buffalo Wedding Photography | Krista & Justin | Holiday Valley, Downtown, City Hall

    November 27, 2018

      We ended our whirlwind October with Krista & Justin at Holiday Valley! These two are so easy-going AND so head-over-heels in love; I knew their wedding would be magical, no matter what. We started our day at Hotel @ The Lafayette, where K&J shared in a super sweet first look. Afterwards, we journeyed…

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? ♥️
