A New York State Wedding |Destination Wedding Photographer

  • John + Lisa

There are so many similarities between me and Lisa. The more time I spent around her, the more I became aware of them. For example, she’s known in her family for being the one that has just a little bit of “clumsy” in her! That’s totally me!! I think there was one summer where I literally had 6 bike accidents in a row!! I learned this about Lisa when she almost took a tumble during the first look! While some brides would let that tarnish the moment… it made their moment even MORE amazing!! They’ll never forgot that!!! The thing about Lisa is that she’s embraces that aspect about herself and you just have to love it!! She is who she is!! She’s smart, joyful and so full of life! There is never a dull moment around this girl and I adore her for that. John loves this about her too! These two crack each other up constantly!

  • Daniel + Anna | Married

thinking about what I wanted to write about in this post for a few days now. It’s hard to put into a few words how awesome this couple is and how I have come to know Anna over the years!! Anna attended one of our workshops several years ago when she was first starting her business. She was so talented and yet she had no idea how AMAZING she really was. :) I specifically remember her asking me before dinner the night of the workshop, “Katelyn, be honest… do you really think that I can do this?! Full time?!”. After asking a few questions about finances and her goals…. it was a no-brainer. She was more than ready to take this business on full time and so that’s what she did!

Bokeh's Growing Toy Collection

  • He's Spoiled Rotten

These toys are from Photographers and sweet friends of ours… some are all the way from AUSTRALIA!! (Thank you Karen!!! gah! You’re the best!!) Don’t buy into those sad puppy dog eyes and the adorable head tilt. You see, Bokeh Boy has this “look” that can make you want to scoop him up and smother him with kisses… especially when it’s time to say goodbye for yet another weekend away….. but don’t be fooled. He is not neglected… actually, he is the opposite.. this dog is SPOILED ROTTEN! Just look at him!! He’s sitting among a throne of NEW TOYS
