So much has happened since I took a small hiatus.

I moved, I settled and I'm ready to get back into it!

Now booking select 2026 and 2027 wedding dates in NY and beyond ❤

Some of my favs from 2025 💕

2025 was a very busy year for me. I had 17 full day weddings. I am so grateful for every single couple that chose me to capture their day. I am so blessed.

During January 2025 I was in the beginning of my own relationship and testing how strong our long distance (Oregon to NY) would hold up during my wedding season. With wedding season over I did make the long 26 hour trip with my animals to close the gap. So at the moment I am currently in Texas while he works here!

Which means I will be flying back for the weddings I have booked and I am looking to book more weddings, seniors and families in NY for 2026, but I will be limiting how many per month I take. There will be no extra charges for travel in the future. I am choosing to continue doing this because I love what I do so much. I have a few wedding shows I will be in for in the coming months. So stay tuned! 🩷 Thank you all for reading.

November, 22nd 2025 at Candee's Tree Farm in Phoenix, NY

We will get that one great photo for your Christmas card, but the rest will be memories. Chasing around the kids to get one of them smiling, bringing squeaker toys so we can get the dogs attention, or giving the kids free reign on being silly.

I've been doing these mini's at Candee's Tree Farm for the last 5 years and they are my favorite mini's I offer! Everyone comes a little stressed and they leave with smiles on their faces. ❤

Mini Sessions include:

✨15 minutes session
