Bryce and Brianna's Green Lakes State Park Intimate Wedding is one of my favorites from the Fayetteville NY area yet with family details from her brother who officiated their ceremony to grandma's dress, a second wedding, the backyard reception, and the rain. Read more on why rain on your outdoor wedding day isn’t a big deal!

Emilie met Jordan while she was auditioning for graduate school in Ithaca, where he’s from. From the way she told me about Jordan and how the photos were going to be a surprise, I knew they would be so sweet together! We met up at Breitbeck Park to start taking pictures. The golden, glowy sunlight was perfect as they got cozy, ran around in the snow, and even had a snowball fight. When it was time, we headed to Bristro 197 for drinks, dinner, and the celebration with their parents.

Ryan and Kate have been together for 6 years and live in an apartment together (with their pup they got after this session, who is the cutest). The plan was for them to go to brunch in Skaneateles, and when they were back in Syracuse, they would go for a walk around the park. When it came time for the proposal, there were chairs set up in the middle of Franklin Square Park from a wedding ceremony earlier in the day, and my mind went straight into problem solving mode. Both he and I were nervous as plans changed quickly, but Kate said yes! We then took some quick photos after they were officially engaged.

Emily and Chris met through a mutual friend, and they ended up going on a blind date. She was unsure at first at how things would go, but they hit it off! 4 years later and they are inseparable! It was the perfect fall morning. These two told me that they’re a little camera shy, but that was not the case! I gave them prompts to make their experience more natural and fun.

Heather and I have been talking all year about planning her June Memory Lane Farms Wedding with Kyle. When Covid hit, we chatted about potentially even rescheduling their wedding to next year. But when she asked me if I would be interested in photographing their marriage if they still got married on their original wedding date, of course I said yes and was so excited they didn’t have to wait another year to get married!

I’ve got the cutest Facetime Engagement session on the blog today to share with you! Katie, who was my roommate in my senior year of college, and her fiance recently moved to North Carolina from Buffalo.

I've taken so many pictures of her over the years, and genuinely love this girl! Being able to take ones of her and Dan over the past years has been a joy! She was the first person I reached out to with this crazy idea of Doing a Facetime Photo Session.
