Krysta & Brian's Photos!

Hello everyone. Sorry I haven't posted anything on this blog recently. Isaac and I have been way too busy for our own good. We bought the house last week and immediately started to fix it up. Right now the hard-wood floors are mid-way through the sanding process and then they need to be polyurethaned. I just wanted to let you all know that Krysta and Brian's photos will be online by the beginning of next week. We took almost 1800 photos are their wedding and have had a lot of sorting to do. We will be away all weekend. Tonight we are about to leave for a friend's dance show in Rochester. Then we are packing up and going to Auburn all day for Nic & Hilary's wedding. This is our last wedding of our 2007 season. We are sad, but happy to finally have a weekend to ourselves. We had such a great time working we all of our brides, grooms, and families this year. To top this weekend off we are driving to Syracuse and staying the night on Saturday because we have to get up early for a "Party" planning fair at The Temple of Concord in Syracuse. We will be returning home on Sunday to try to finish the sanding project on our floors at our new house. Can anyone tell me why I make myself so busy???

new house!!!

We closed on our house yesterday! It is so weird being a homeowner. I walked into the house after the closing and thought to myself, "Where next?" With that being said we have a lot of work to do to get the house ready to move into. We have to reroute some plumbing and buy a new hot water heater in addition to refinish the hardwoods downstairs and paint the entire house. It is going to be a work in progress. Isaac and I have taken this week off to try to get things done as soon as possible. So we will not be available for meetings this week. We will be responding to emails and voicemails. I promise I will return all emails and phone calls when I get a chance.
Also once I figure out how to get my videocamera hooked up to my computer I will add a video showing you the house :-) This winter we will be converting the 3 car garage into our studio. It will be a very welcoming place with a fireplace, big TV, and comfy furniture. We are hoping that by next summer we will have a small english garden where we could take outside portraits. Have a great day!

Hello! I hope you are all enjoying this amazing weather. Isaac and I finally have a weekend off. Our first weekend off since May. We decided to go camping in Ithaca with some friends and family. I just wanted to let you all know that our Collages.net website is not working right now. For some reason when we try to upload an event we get an internal error message. So with that being said we have all of Autumn & Brad Lyons and Niki &Mike Vant's photographs all set. We are just waiting to put them online. I will let you all know when they become available. I am sorry for making you wait for this amount of time. Have a great weekend!

Behling's Orchard

Yesterday Isaac and I took the day off. After working for over 2 weeks straight without a day off we needed a day to ourselves. We went to Behlings Orchards in Mexico with my brother & Sister-in-law and my nephew Michael. We picked a lot of apples and played in the corn maze and playground. Then Isaac and I drove down to Dunk&Bright furniture store in Syracuse and bought a brand new living room set for our new house. We are hoping to close on the house by the end of next week although we want to close now! Once we close on the house we are going to take a few days off because we need to get this house ready for us to move into at the beginning of November. Also just a quick update on Autumn and Brad's photos: We are working on them right now and are hoping to have them up by mid-day tomorrow. Here are some photos from yesterday:


They had a variety of apples with my name! I picked alot of them, they were DELICIOUS!


Even though we were not at a vineyard, we were at an orchard, and in my book they are pretty much the same thing!

Isaac's brother Alan with our nephew Michael.


Just a cool shot of Isaac walking back to the car.


Michael ate more than one of these and he is not even 3!


The pumpkins were very cool to photograph.


I was on the ladder picking Jenna apples and Michael squeezed up on the ladder also.


There was a huge playground for the kiddos to play in, Michael didn't want to leave to pick apples.


A cool shot of the ladder.


I bought some small gourds and small pumpkins and then put them in large glass canisters.
