Mary & Justin's E-session

Last week I met Mary & Justin for the first time out at Fallbrook. We met only an hour before the sun set completely, so we had only a short amount of time to shoot before there was no good light. I had such a blast photographing Mary & Justin, who are planning to have their wedding in 2011. They brought their awesome dog, Brody, with them. I managed to get some great shots even though Brody is probably the most hyper dog I have ever met. Enjoy my favorites! There are only a few good fall days left to take photos outside, so if you want a portrait session please call soon so I can schedule you in before the leaves fall. Of course I can always take photos after the leaves fall too, just this time of year people want the fall colors.

Jen & Jason's E-session

October is definitely the month of the year we do the most portraits. Even with scaling back I have managed to shoot 6 portraits in the last week. We are shooting Jen & Jason's wedding next summer. Isaac went out one bright Saturday morning to photograph these two for their engagement session, here are some of my favorites. Even though I wasn't able to make the shoot, I am so exited for their wedding by just looking at these photos. You can check out the rest on our portrait proofing page of the website.


















If you are interested in having us shoot an engagement session or family portrait please call us soon, I can feel the winter weather getting closer! We can go out to Fallbrook, family property, or find some other great location!

Amy & Phil

Amy & Phil wanted a fall wedding and they sure got one. It was a beautiful day... 45*degrees and windy. When I say windy, I don't mean 5-10 mph winds, I mean closer to 30 mph winds. During the ceremony Isaac mentioned his long lense he was using (80-400mm) was being blow around with the high winds. Amy & Phil couldn't have handled the cold temps any better! They were all smiles, all day. We had such a great time being there for them as they start their new life together. Remember their engagement photos? Click here to view them. Enjoy these previews while I take 2-3 weeks to get the rest of the photos edited and online.

Isaac met up with the guys at the Econo Lodge before the ceremony. Aren't those clouds incredible!


What a gorgeous bride Amy was! This was what I like to call her "after smile", after taking a posed photo one always has an "after smile" which is a quick moment of a real and sincere smile. I LOVED her earrings!


Isaac captured this moment as Amy and her father were walking the long path down the aisle. At this moment Amy wasn't able to see Phil, her excitement was contagious!


Quick moment as they were walking away and turned to see if we were following.


I loved her flowers!


Finally a moment alone. Bayshore's foliage and landscaping is amazing this time of year.


A nice headless shot! Amy was watching Phil get his photo taken as I snuck this quick shot.


We had the most amazing light! If it wasn't almost 40* we would have stayed out there longer, I love it when brides put flowers or hairpieces in their hair.


As the sun was setting the sky opposite the sunset turned this amazing blue. What a cool contrast to the warm glow on the girls.


One of my favorite photos! So real.

Caroline & Steve

This past Saturday Isaac and I had the privilege of photographing Caroline & Steve's wedding out at Bayshore Grove on Lake Ontario. We have 3 weddings this October, all of them out at Bayshore! I feel like we are becoming Bayshore experts with how much we shoot out there. The great thing is that each and every wedding is different so there is ALWAYS something new to take photos of.
Caroline grew up in Oswego and decided to return to her hometown to get married to Steve. It was a gorgeous day with a few downpours here and there. The bride was stunning, I loved her dress and laced veil. So classy. Here are some of my favorites from the day.

Caroline and her father seeing each other for the first time. So emotional!


How cute! I loved seeing the bottom of the shoes during the ceremony.


Isaac caught this shot as Caroline and her father Steve arrived at the ceremony in style with a classic car


This was the first time we have seen this "fake snow" as they exited the church all the guests threw this snow on them. It is supposed to wash away with the rain. quite romantic and much cleaning than bird seed!


The gorgeous bride out at Bayshore


Caroline had some of the best bridesmaids, they were so fun to work with


Steve and the girls


Finally a moment alone, we spent 5-10 minutes out on the shoreline, it was a nice chance for these two to have some quite time to say hello.








Caroline saw Steve for the first time in this shot! I love the sun coming around her and her father.


The guys out on the rocks, what a good group of guys, really down to earth group!



I will be posting more often now that the bulk of my wedding season is over. We still have 4 weddings to shoot with the last one being Nov 21st. I will be starting with weddings in late May and continuing through up until my October weddings. So keep checking up!

ALSO we have decided we will be shooting more weddings for next year for a total of 10 weddings. We will still be taking more time off than usual so we can enjoy our baby girl, but I have decided that I LOVE what I do and it will be no problem to shoot 10 weddings. So if you are interested in having us shoot your wedding give us a call sometime soon!
