🍀 Brining back an oldie but goodie to say Happy St. Patrick’s Day weekend!

🥳 Happy 315 day!! I’m happy to be apart of the 315 community.

I love getting to connect with local businesses and entrepreneurs through branding shoots. 👋🏼 Here’s a little shoutout to some amazing 315 peeps.

It’s a great time to redo your branding materials for 2024!

I don’t know who needs to hear this…

But you are not required to do anything how it’s been traditionally done at your wedding 🤷🏻‍♀️

Ada & Simone choose to wear dresses that truly emphasize their personalities. Simone chose to wear a dress that showcased her Mexican background. Ada wore a dress designed by a friend back in L.A. who does costume design.

It’s YOUR wedding peeps. So this is your reminder to “DO YOU”!! Do what makes you happy and makes sense for your wedding day. And Ada & Simone how can I convince you guys to repeat your day every day so I can relive it over and over again?

A month ago, I took a girls weekend and had to take advantage of getting dolled up & the amazing space!! 😍😍

So let me reintroduce myself with a new headshot. 👋🏼 Hi I’m Colleen.

Business owner, wife, momma to a beautiful baby girl and adventurer! I can’t wait to meet you and photograph your family.

See! Even the photographers kid gives her a hard time!! 😂 Enjoy all the faces of my sweet baby girl.

T-minus 2 days til Valentine’s Day! There is still time to get your loved one or BFFs something to show your love.
Are you a 🍫 chocolate or 💐 flowers person?

I’m a photographer, of course I did multiple photo shoots after saying “oh, just one more!” 😂

Took a little trip out to Rochester today to help my bestie celebrate her engagement!!

Save the date photos are so much fun! 😍

You want a photo session but don’t have the money?

You’re a carpenter? Cool inbox me.
You’re a mechanic? Cool inbox me.
You give massages? Cool inbox me.
