Legacy...
SOMETIMES OUR CHILDHOOD MEMORIES ARE SO STRONG,
THEY SHAPE WHO WE BECOME
I call her Am!
Growing up, I witnessed the love of my mother and father, and I have always known what it feels like to be loved. Today, I document love stories in a way that allows couples to be their authentic selves. I want to tell a love story - your story.
MY "WHY"
My Sister Amber . A lovely young soul who smiled so big you could feel her through a photo. In 2005 she fought a brave and fierce fight that left an impression on me that is one of the most profound yet inspirational moments of my lifetime. As she left the earth we clung to the photos and stories of the 21 years of laughs, joy and it carried us through our sorrow. I knew right then and there that I had a mission to carry out!! I had to attach the moments and joy to portraits for people while allowing them the most authentic and raw emotions in that second.
We grow, we age, and we change. It's inevitable. However, when you look at a photo that I've taken, I want it to be a timeless reminder of how you looked and felt at that specific time in your life.
Each time you look at your wedding images, I want you to be reminded that on this particular day, and at this particular moment in time - this is where you were, who you were, and what you were doing.
I am a curator of timeless, romantic, and fun love stories! Telling YOUR story means getting to know you on a personal level. It means hearing how you met, fell in love, and plans for your future celebration. Let's discuss how we can best document your day!

Buffalo, NY Is Home
HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS
I travel for shoots to the home of General Mills in downtown Buffalo multiple times a week where we can tell you which cereal is in production on that day by the smell that fills the air. Cheerios is my favorite day.
The Beach
THIS IS WHERE I "Travel"
Waves, Ocean, and sunsets are where I find relaxation and solace when not working. We travel in our RV up and down the east coast every summer.
Personal Development
I Read and listen
I am a work in progress and always listening to inspiration. Audiobooks and Podcasts help me to grow.
MY PHILOSOPHY
I believe my clients deserve my full attention not only on their portrait day, but also the preparations up to it. If you have questions regarding your photography or clothing recommendations, I am here for you.
I
I believe your photos should withstand the test of time, and that your children's children should be able to look back at your memories and feel like they were present on your day. Because of this, I tend to document and edit photos in a way that showcases clean edits, romantic embraces, and fun moments- but so stylishly done that the images should belong on the wall.
II
For My wedding clients. I believe all of the planning that you've put into your wedding should be documented, so for this reason I ask clients to allow ample time for their wedding day photos. Whether it’s the wedding rings, the invitation suite, or uninterrupted reception space, being able to look back at those memories can generate the feeling of excitement that this day actually came true!
III
I believe your wedding photos should be a collection of editorial, documentary, and classic moments that tell a story of your day. Traditional photos are what make the parents happy, but I will also capture the stylish, candid, and fun portraits from your day.
IV
are we a
GOOD FIT?
You see the trends and love them, but you aren't defined by them. You understand that a marriage is more than a wedding. You want the memories from your wedding day to be a constant reminder of the love that was felt by your invited guests, the tears that were shed by your family during the ceremony, the laughs that were shared on the dance floor, and the portraits of your groom holding you immediately after you said "I Do". If this is you, I would love to meet you and discuss your wedding day vision!
