Lizy and Wyatt • Rochester Engagement Photography

Wednesday, April 28th, 2010

Another weekend, another great engagement! Lizy and Wyatt came up from Baltimore for their shoot, it was so great to meet them after corresponding with Lizy last summer. Lizy’s emails were so full of warmth and personality, I kind of felt like she was smiling while she typed them… so of course I was looking forward to the shoot. Lizy and Wyatt are really cute together and were a pleasure to photograph!

You’d think from all the lovely flowering trees and bushes that spring is officially here, right? It snowed yesterday morning. Ah Rochester…

My brides always wear such hot shoes… even in the woods! Love it…

As we walked down towards a field, I told Lizy and Wyatt about the time I was in the same area for a shoot a couple years ago and there were about 40 deer standing around… de ja vue! There were probably 10 or so just chillin’ in the field, it was pretty cool!

Sorry deer, my couple is cuter than you…

Jill and Martin • Rochester Engagement Photography

Tuesday, April 20th, 2010

The 2011 couples are already here! :) Jill and Martin’s wedding is next summer, and they wanted to set up an engagement so they can start sending out their save-the-dates. I’m so happy that we fit the shoot in this week, because EVERYTHING is in bloom right now… it is just gorgeous outside, even when it’s gray and cold (which it definitely was for our shoot!)

Jill and Martin are both getting their doctorates in psychology in Pittsburgh, and I’m so glad we got to meet up despite their extremely busy schedules! I had so much fun wandering around Highland Park with them, chatting about dogs (they have an adorable pug!) and attempting to outrun the threatening skies. Let’s get to it!

I kind of get a Jerry O’Connell vibe from Martin… cuteness!

We also stopped into the Lamberton Conservatory for a few shots… I love this place!

I got about 5 shots off in this room before the humidity fogged up my lenses (to be fair, they had been out in the freezing cold for the previous hour or so!)

Thanks for making the trip up you two, have a great year… I can’t wait til the wedding! It seems so far away… :)

Babies! (x2) • Rochester Baby Photography

Tuesday, April 6th, 2010

Here are a couple of shoots from summer (I wasn’t kidding when I said the blog was a bit backlogged earlier!) of some cute little tater tots… babies are so fun to photograph! I’ll start with little Danny, he started off with a couple of funny -and adorable- expressions that had me laughing…

SO hilarious!

Warming up to the camera a bit.

And, moving on to Sarah… I LOVE seeing my wedding clients come back to me with their babies! Sharon and Todd were a blast to shoot, and a very sweet couple so I was very excited when Sharon emailed and said she’d be in NY over the summer with their little girl! We made a date and met up at Highland Park for the shoot.

This one rules… sassy baby!

Not exactly ready to hold herself up, but I thought this was pretty adorable!

She got a little sleepy.

Ok, that wraps it up for now… I have a couple of engagements coming up that I’m really excited about! I’m also closing on a house May 10th, so I will try to find time to blog in between the 7 zillion hours I’ve been spending uploading pictures to the Sherwin Williams paint visualizer tool. ;)
