Melissa & Tom’s Wedding – 6.26.10

Monday, July 12th, 2010

Melissa & Tom came to us to shoot their wedding in Honeoye Falls, one that would include many “firsts” for us: the first at the Lower Mill, the first with the Reverend Kris Miller, the first that included the Milwaukee Brewer’s team song…   What wasn’t a first for us were the wonderful people involved in the wedding party, as we’ve been on the receiving end of a great many compliments from them… This is the latest in a long string of referrals from bride to bride, as former bridesmaids would turn to us to shoot their own wedding. After spending all day with us, and viewing their friends’ images and beautiful storybook bridal album, they are enthusiastic about us spending their special day with them also … The best compliment we can receive!

Aimee & Adam’s Wedding – 6.12.10

Wednesday, July 7th, 2010

Aimee and Adam Snyder came to us, as they are friends with one of our former brides, and simply loved her photography and finished album. We told them to trust us, that their wedding would look just as beautiful as our previous work… Come the big day, held at Westwood Country Club, Williamsville, NY, and Aimee and her twin sister Kim(ee) were looking lovely, and seemed cool as cucumbers. The previous evening, at the rehearsal ceremony, I got to meet and “warm up to” the flower girls, so they were all smiles for me on the wedding day. Have you ever seen such cute little redheads?  The little one, 6 yrs old,  told me she was, “Sarah…. with an h…” so her big sister introduced herself as, “Kaitlin…. with a K.” So cute…

Rochester Nightcraze with WPXY and CJ Sound

Thursday, May 20th, 2010

I received an invite to shoot the craziness that is Rochester Nightcraze, a dance-fest at the Expo center’s Minnet Hall produced by WPXY FM 97.9 and CJ Sound, and I readily accepted.   Music by WPXY’s Rafael and Buffalo’s WKSE 98.5’s Nicholas Picholas and CJ Sound., Lit by a full laser show, attendees were glowing in the dark, breakdancing and sweating to the beats…

Nightcraze by CJ Sound

This kid amazed me- dancing has changed a bit since this leadfoot last hit the floor...

Fantastic laser show...

My head hurt just watching this kid...

Lisa LaRuez Portfolio Shoot

Monday, May 10th, 2010

The lovely Lisa LaRuez came into the studio needing to freshen up her modeling portfolio, as it was looking a bit dated. During a modeling portfolio session, we try to show many differing looks, so Lisa would shoot fitness, casual, fashion, etc. to really broaden her book in a style similar to the shoots I’ve worked on for Talbots, LLBean, Nordstrom, etc.

Michelle & Tim’s 1940’s Engagement Shoot

Friday, April 23rd, 2010

Michelle & Tim’s 1940’s Engagement Shoot

Michelle & Tim are planning a 1940’s movie star themed wedding for Sept 2010. We shot in Orchard Park, NY, at Green Lake Park, to recreate  “The Notebook” styling and make a old-time movie poster for them to use as for their guests to sign when they enter the reception, to be held at Rich’s Atrium in Buffalo, NY. Guests will walk down a red carpet and find this poster at the end for them to sign as if they were old-time movie stars…

Michelle & Tim’s three favorite images, followed by the recreated movie poster we designed for them….
