How long until spring?

Well, life is ever changing but
I can always find a constant and a comfort in your love.

Fun fact: it poured rain through the ceremony of these two meteorologists but they were so chill because I guess they sort of know that weather happens. Plus we got beautiful light before and after for these sweet portraits!

One of my all-time favorite wedding venues is ! Its exquisite grounds are a photographer’s dream, with infinite options for elegant portraits and several ceremony location options.

In October I fell deeply in love… with these flower arrangements by .
At first I thought it was just a little crush, but I couldn’t stop thinking and talking about them and here I am, months later, digging photos out of my archive to bask in the gifts to the human soul that are flowers and color and especially the combination.

Just thought we all deserved to be blown away by again

Finally getting around to looking through some second shooting work from the summer! I love every extra chance I get to take pretty photos, and hanging with and helping other photographers I admire is a huge bonus. It was a dream to shoot for at this happy wedding!

This summer wedding made the most beautiful romantic visions come to life. The princess ballgown, the elegant atmosphere of Harro East Ballroom and the Eastman house gardens, and the sweetest couple were such creative inspirations and I’m in love with how these photos turned out!

Some more from Mike & Andrea’s perfect wedding… heavily featuring ‘s gorgeous wallpaper and scenery.

I’d always wanted to check out Wadsworth Homestead, ever since I lived directly across the street from its mysterious wooded entrance in college. IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT.

It’s like… they like each other or something?

I’m a day late in wishing a happy one-month anniversary to Jordan and Mike, who threw such an awesome party at the newly revamped The Mansion at Keuka Lake ! The view was unbeatable, the people were super chill and the music was a perfect fit (and my personal favorite vibe). These two were a breeze to work with and I’m so excited that they’re as happy as I am with these photos!

More favorites from Danielle & Nick’s wedding!

Can’t get over how amazing my hairstylist looked on her wedding day! So happy for her, Nick, and the adorable little boys they made to finally have a beautiful celebration of their family with all of their friends. Danielle said she’s “happy screaming and crying” about her gallery, and I have to say I’m pretty excited about what we were able to capture despite wind and rain and restless babies 😍I’ll share more in another post!

Maybe it was this lucky little ladybug - or maybe it was their lively friends and families that helped make Spenser & Liz’s wedding such a perfect celebration! With this kind of fun to keep me grinning behind my camera, it’s no wonder my face hurts at the end of a wedding night 😂

When it rains through your ceremony… 🌧️🙄

…but you are MARRIED and you have an amazing day anyway!

This was a first for me: bride and groom playing together at their own wedding! (And when Alexa wasn’t joining Alex and his band, she was cheering him on!) We had a blast with this fun couple and their friends at the gorgeous on a perfect spring day last month!

I was PUMPED when decided to hire me as her wedding photographer! She is the only person I’ve trusted with my hair and actually wanted to have haircut chats with for six years. So fun to have her perfect face (plus Nick’s) in front of my camera and to have weddings added to babies, breastfeeding and tantrums as topics of chair conversation 😂

Alyssa and Nate NAILED their first married kiss - just one of many things that made their wedding day so special. They also got to celebrate with their precious daughter (and I got to hold her and get a little baby fix 😍). I love that she’ll get to look back at her parents’ wedding album someday and see the sweet moments they took with her little baby self amidst all the excitement.

I don’t pick favorite weddings… that would be impossible! But if I did, Dana and Noah’s would definitely be a finalist. Everything about it was a dream for me thanks to these amazing businesses and this beautiful couple’s infusion of love into every part of the day.

Been dreaming of a picture like this for a while and finally had the opportunity to make it happen in Brittany’s parents’ dining room! This dress was made for it 😍

Couldn’t not share a few photos from this beautiful Belhurst wedding associate shot for Destiny Burke Photography in July 😍

This genetically gifted couple should be on the cover of a romance novel, am I right? 🔥Only 4 days until their wedding and I am so pumped to photograph them again!
