I met up with this pretty lady at Siena College for her senior portrait session. She was just graduating from college, and heading off to the Air Force. Talk about a major turning point in her life! I love her adorable graduation cap:

The first time I photographed this family, they were just announcing their pregnancy. We met up months later to do maternity photos, and I was thrilled when they contacted me to do an updated family portrait session to include their new addition. We decided to meet up at the beautiful Yaddo Gardens in Saratoga, NY.
When they walked over, I was so excited to meet little miss Lily! She was sporting a big smile, and that is always a good sign. We got started right away…we didn’t want to run out of adorable Lily smiles. As you can see, it paid off:
I have been photographing these two kiddos for a while now, and I get pretty excited every time their mother contacts me to set up a photo session. They both are so easy to photograph. I mean, I know they’re adorable, but they cooperate so well too! I also love that they call me “Picture Crystal”. Seriously the cutest! (more…)
As 2013 comes to an end, I still can’t believe all of the amazing things that happened, the incredible people I had the honor of working with, and the touching moments I had the privilege of capturing. I have been there as so many of you marry your best friends, I have planned out exciting gender reveal sessions, I have photographed newborn babies and children to help their parents capture a moment in time that passes all too quickly, I have captured families in all of their silliness and beauty…..I still can’t believe that I get to do what I love!

I met up with Jenn and Bill at Thacher Park near Albany, NY this fall. The leaves were at their peek, and bright in color. We wandered around the beautiful park (thacher park is beyond gorgeous!), getting some great shots along the way. It was a chilly day, and the two of them kept warm with their flannel blanket.

I met this lovely lady back before there was a baby bump. I photographed her and her two little boys for Mother’s Day and did a couple of pregnancy announcement photos. I was super excited when she asked me to do a gender reveal photo session for her and her husband. We went to the beautiful Thatcher Park in upstate NY for our session. They came equipped with some fun props in the color to match baby’s gender. We had a wonderful time and I absolutely love the way their photos turned out. Now that they have had a chance to reveal the gender to their friends and family, I can announce it. They are having a…. (more…)
I am always very busy planning photo sessions for other people. I absolutely love what I do and put my heart and soul into every photo session. I get so excited planning out the sessions and making or purchasing props. I thought it was about time to do a session with my own little ones. I imagined them in white flowing dresses, with floral head wreaths on, and bear feet… a very boho look. I can get everyone else’s children to cooperate and have a great time, but my kids run from me when they see my camera in my hand. I made sure to let them know ahead of time that this was important to me (and bribed them with ice cream). It was very humid and the bugs were really bothering them, but they did a great job and I am so proud of how their photos came out! I finally have some beautiful photos of my own kiddos! (more…)
Last week I had the opportunity to do a country engagement session for a couple whose wedding I will be photographing this fall. They chose a location that I had never been to before, and I am so glad she did. What a great location! There were barns, open fields, a small bridge, and a really cool looking green garage door. We had some fun, got some great shots, and even ran into a giant Ox. This couple is so great to be around, and I had a wonderful time photographing them. I can’t wait to shoot their wedding this fall! (more…)
