Jojo and Tony’s 1920s themed wedding at Traditions at the Links was the perfect example of having a wedding on a budget and still putting together an amazing wedding. Jojo is so sweet she’s offered to chat to other brides with a smaller budget on how to create a high end feeling wedding. If you are interested in learning more, let me know and I can connect the two of you!

Antonia and Collin had the most gorgeous wedding at Our Farm in Manlius, NY! The entire day was full of local beer from IBU Brewery as Collin had designed for their cans this past year! These two opted to do a first look in the garden, shared their first beer together as husband and wife, had a mini donkey as their wedding crasher. They even shot pumpkins off into the distance with a trebuchet!

Loren and Matt connected with me almost instantly for their Hotel Syracuse wedding! I was dreaming up ways to make their wedding day special on my way to and from work while I was working downtown. There was an emotional first look with Loren’s grandpa, paper cranes fo seat cards, rooftop photos during golden hour, Glazed and Confused donuts, and Italian cookies!

Julia and John got married on the 10th of August at her parents’ house. It was a stunning DIY backyard wedding. The items they used to create this day were found and refurbished to use as wedding decor - the dressers (for donuts!), chairs for outdoor seating and pictures, rugs for the aisle leading up to the ornate black arbor where they said vows. They danced all night long until there was a massive bonfire behind their house.

Now I’m not going to lie, I was not their their wedding photographer, but Emily’s bridesmaid who could not help herself but bring her camera! I snuck them away from dancing for twilight photos by the flowering trees, documented Wesley’s end of the night singing, accompanied by his brother on piano, and captured their sparkler exit.

When Amber contacted me to photograph her marriage with Boris at the beautiful Dibbles Inn in the Silver Garden Room, I couldn’t wait for it! It was an extremely hot day, but everyone was happy to celebrate this joining of families, despite the heat. Amber has two daughters, and Boris has 2 sons of his own so it was truly a celebration of a new, blended family!

Tori & Matt had an intimate 40 guest wedding at Francesca’s Cucina on North Salina Street in Syracuse, NY! They picked their July 14th wedding date by researching weather patterns in Syracuse and found that this day consistently did not rain. It was the ideal day for their ceremony and dinner on the stunning patio at Francesca’s! Their 4 hour wedding day was amazing!

Liz reached out to me shortly after photographing her brother’s wedding last year. You may remember a picture of them with a giraffe? I was so excited for their wedding because it was coming back to family! We went to St. Cecilia’s Catholic Church for their ceremony, then took pictures at family friend’s house to take pictures in their stunning backyard where they took pictures for senior prom. I love that we came back full circle! Liz’s little sister Erin caught the bouquet and guests roasted s’mores before it down-poured for the night!
