It was a beautifully foggy morning. I've been WAITING to do a Foggy Photoshoot FOREVER and this was the perfect morning. I did a scout of this park prior and was hoping for a beautiful sunrise, however as things turn out, Mother Nature had other plans. It was still perfect. Also, Sarah and Matt's outfit was too cute for words, I loved their colors! Its been over 3 years since we first took their photos and I owe it all to them for getting me up and running!

I got to travel to Auburn NY, super cute small town out in West New York and shoot Kristen and Rick's Engagement photos! It was one of the best mornings I've ever had getting to photograph a wedding for some friends of mine. It was a breezy Sunday Morning but it was one of the nicest mornings being so close to the Lake. The Sunrise was gorgeous and the day was amazing. I can't wait for their Wedding at the Spring Side Inn!

FALL IS MY FAVORITE and these two were OWNING their Engagement shoot like a BOSS. PLUS we had an adorable sidekick along with us who just wanted to explore! There were lots to see and lots to do and beautiful colors all over. I can't wait for their wedding at the Troy Kitchen!

It was a good day for a Wedding. They started the day, getting ready with each other, slowly putting together the details of their day attire on and getting ready for portraits. They were getting married in STYLE. We walked around right around the State Capital and Plaza to create gorgeous photos of them in their massively stylish outfit. When it was time to get to the venue, everything was falling into place. We also were doing some Shenanigans with the Wedding Party before the Ceremony... You'll just have to scroll to see the ridiculousness!

The day started off sunny, and full of activities, finishing out last minute changes and ironing out the details. It was quite the adventure, an adventure that Angela and Steve will talk about for years to come. Between setting the table charts, hair and make up, writing up the final words to the vows, and laughing in excitement and nervousness, It was perfect for Angela and Steve. They were so into each other, and so made for each other, I couldn't stop thinking how this sweet and wonderful woman, was marrying this chivalrous and respectable man. It was a perfect day.

Mike and Adrian just recently moved to Hartford, but that won't stop them from having a wedding at Birch Hill in Castleton. Life doesn't stop, not even when opportunities arise so it was appropriate to give them an engagement session in their new city where they will reside. I think they are settling in pretty nicely. Check out my favorites from the session!

The days leading up to their wedding were filled with excitement, with family flying in, and making details and going over the logistics and it was finally here! Katie and Cam were getting married and I NEED to show you their day because its a story of two people who were destined to be together, not because it was uncontrolled, but by choice and through love. They could not have been more made for each other, and I am always so grateful to find clients who always love spending time together.

What I've noticed about all of my couples is that they were fun loving, happy, and completely in love. These two were no exception...

At first I felt a little bit reserved because they wanted to do part of their Engagement Session at the Oakwood Cemetery but when we got started, the light was beautiful and everything was so amazing. They had their first Date at the Oakwood Cemetery, well their first OFFICIAL date. ;-) We then traveled to Troy NY to get some shots right in the downtown district. It was laughs and giggles all day, I couldn't ask for a happier couple!

The day couldn't have been more full of activity than this wedding, people were all excited to see the Bride in her full get up before the ceremony. We were trying to get people away from the hotel door all morning while taking tons of Getting Ready Photos and details. When it came to the first look,  Sean was excited, he couldn't wait to see her, in her dress, all made up. Nichole couldn't wait to see him, his beaming smile and his infectious laugh. They loved each other for years already, you could tell by the way the joked with each other, by the way they laughed with and at each other, and by the way they both go into full damage control mode when things didn't seem to go as expected. They can do anything together, I know this for a fact, because I've seen these two go to it. Check out the day with them!

Angela and Steve are getting Married soon! These two are super easy going and they play off each other so adorably. Him with his witty and charming charisma and her with her sweet and down to earth nature, we had so much fun. We went through a stroll through the park and to the State Capitol Park and they just couldn't keep their hands to themselves! They were attempting to dip, So it was only natural for me to teach them a proper dip from my Ballroom Dancing Days, Check out how they did!

If anyone knows me, they would know that I love a good adventure. I got to shoot an Engagement for Sofia and Brad in NYC! Although it isn't quite an adventure for me since its somewhere I'm familiar with, it was an adventure filled with lots of laughs, lots of flirting and lots of walking. Neither I or Sofia and Brad are unfamiliar with NYC so I wanted to create photos that captures their personalities, their relationship with each other, and the place where they live and love. Check out my favorites from this session and tell me which ones were yours!

Same-Sex marriage is no different, in fact, its just a Marriage. Now that we've gotten that out of the way, lets talk about new traditions that are coming into light now that everyone wants to have their own wedding.
