Lauren & Eric had a perfect early summer wedding complimented by bright & bold colors and crisp details. Their ceremony was at a beautiful, high arched church, followed by the most epic church exit you've ever seen! We then went to the Thornden Rose Garden and had a blast with the bridal party. Their reception was a perfect fun-for-all event with tons of amazing dancing. Laura & Eric have a beautiful, magnetic love that was perfectly celebrated & captured! 

Laura & Dave are clearly a perfect match of beautiful, light hearted & hilarious people! Their entire bridal party and family were truly amazing to work with, and after some pressure from their photographer (I got you married couples!)... we were even let up on the roof of the Crowne Plaza at sunset to take the most beautiful couple portraits. With their soft & elegant details, their wedding beamed with sophistication & most of all... love!

Ever seen a "country chic" wedding? If not, this is the pinnacle! So many beautiful, rustic details pulled together on a day as perfect as Sheree & Pat are for each other. Their easy and effortless was apparent to all of their dynamically fun guests. The food, the band, the guests--all so perfectly paired to Sheree & Pat. I wish the two of you nothing but happiness & laughter and it was an honor to document your day!

Shayna & Rick's backyard reception was a perfect way to honor their gorgeous elopement and include their families in their great love. From the personal touches (like those awesome BBQ suaces & rubs!) to the intimate family moments (those dances!), the love between these two is infectious. Best of luck to the newlyweds! 

Mike & Becky had the most romantic Elmira College wedding. Between Becky's jaw-dropping gown, the gorgeous succulent florals, and Mike's chic gray suit, this wedding oozed elegance. It was an honor and privilege to capture this couple's great love. Congratulations, love birds!

Heartfelt, sincere, emotional. If I could only pick three words to describe this union, those would be the three. In reality, I can think of a thousand more adjectives to explain just how hard these two tugged at my heartstrings!

I started off this perfect September weekend in Cazenovia, NY at the bride's family's "pond house". It was such a pleasure to spend a few relaxed moments with the bride and groom during the rehearsal dinner, to get to know and work with the couple before the wedding.

Family and friends gathered for months to build the gorgeous gazebo pictured in the wedding section of the post. During the ceremony, one of the best I've ever had the privilege to witness, there was not a dry eye in the vicinity. As they spoke of every day moments, ice cream flavors, trials, tribulations, future plans--the connection between this two was undeniable. More special touches like a song written and performed by the groom's father, and quotes hand-picked from a dozen guests, the emotional touches made the day beyond special. 

So, so honored to have been part of your day Bishop family! Best wishes for a brilliant future.

Maggie & Tyler's wedding was on the perfect summer day--fitting for just the most perfect couple. Endwell Greens was a beautiful backdrop and I have to admit it was a lot of fun riding around in a golf cart to pick the best photo locations. This was a truly special day and I wish Maggie & Tyler nothing but happiness for their lifetime together!

Kylee & Joe's bright and beautiful wedding was set at their family church in Endicott, NY. The day was full of love, excitement for this gorgeous young couple, and lots of dancing! This laid back couple were such troopers during photo sessions, and even laid in the grass to capture photos like the one above (best bride ever for doing that!). Best wishes for a lifetime of happiness, Kylee & Joe! 

Alex & Ray's wedding was on a gorgeous Saturday at Hotel Ithaca, right in the center of picturesque downtown Ithaca. Their culturally fused wedding was thoughtful from the first moment I arrived, and centered around their families, friends, and most of all their handsome son! These two are so clearly made for each other. Enjoy a lifetime of love & laughter! 

Amber & Dave's wedding was on the PERFECT day in the most gorgeous location. This was my first time shooting at Highland Forest--but I certainly hope not my last. The backdrops were absolutely breathtaking, as were the bride and groom.

From the moment Amber started getting ready under they danced the night away, their love for each other and their beautiful daughter flooded the mood. Best wishes to this most gorgeous family! Thank you for including me in your day!
