Hazy Summer Shoot (Amaal & Brian)

 I can't believe it's taken me this long to finally get this shoot up on the blog. By now, you have all seen these photos on the facebook page or all over Amaal's page. But for those of you who haven't, these photos were taken at Emma Willard (which is pretty much the Hogwards Grounds) in Troy, New York. I honestly could not be more thrilled with how they came out, which is saying something for a photographer! The sunset was cooperating to the millionth degree and these two could not stop smiling and laughing.

Photography Idol

I just recently entered one of my all time favorite photos into Chic Critique's Photography Idol contest! I am a huge fan of all that Chic Critique does for the budding and seasoned photographers out there so I jumped at the opportunity to show off some of my best work. Can't wait to see what happens and please visit Chic Critique.

It's been far too long...

If you check this blog every few days, hoping for an update, I'm terribly sorry (though I kind of doubt anyone religiously checks this page.. other than me... hehe)! It's been ages and ages since I've posted any recent work, though I've had two particularly fun shoots in the past few months. I decided to break my silence and share with you some "personal" work.

Since moving to the city for the summer, I've been kind of a hermit. I've vowed not to go on and on about why I don't like it here... but I'll just leave it at this - I miss open space, my car, inexpensive groceries etc.. A few weekends back, Josh and I took the train back to Albany, at which point I had to beg my GORGEOUS mother to let me take some pictures of her... I miss people pictures. So without further ado... here is the result.

Amaal [2012 Senior]

I am so passionate about portraits, the summer, and naturally... gorgeous senior portraits! This was a huge honor for me. Amaal has been a friend of mine since my days in high school, so naturally.. I couldn't wait for the opportunity to take part in her senior year in such a big way! It will always be my goal to get across my style of photography as well as my clients personality through my photos and I really feel that I've accomplished both of these things in this photo set! Enjoy, and early congratulations to Amaal!

Dana & Bobby [Wedding]

As you have probably guessed by the fact that this post was created a day after the actual event.. I am head over heels over Dana & Bobby's wedding photos from yesterday. This was my very first "wedding shoot" and I really could not have asked for a better experience! I'm finding it incredibly difficult to pic my favorites to post... but without further ado, here are some of my favorite shots from the day.

Dana & Bobby (October Engagement)

First and foremost, I have to apologize for the extreme lack of updates to the blog. With that being said, the following photos are from way back, last October. These photos are some of my favorites! Dana and Bobby are both extremely easy going and well dressed, if I do say so myself, and I feel that this reflects beautifully in their photos. So here are some of my absolute favorites from the shoot.
