Class of 2016 {Senior Photography}

All I have to say is Alex nailed this shoot.  I had a blast with him and his mom... what a sweet family!

6 Month Old Baby Photoshoot {Syracuse, NY}

As you can see, Laila is one adorable little baby.  She had such a sweet demeanor from the second she was carried through my door.  Instant smiles and she totally hammed it up for the camera.  It was such an easy and fun shoot!  She even modeled an Easter hat for me.

Saying goodbye is never fun.... especially to someone this adorable!

Merry Christmas!

Christmas Pajamas!

Sometimes us adults forget just how exciting Christmas time can be for a child.

Fall Family Photoshoot {Syracuse}

Meet my 2014 photo session giveaway winners!  Originally scheduled for the summer, we had to reschedule for the fall... and I'm so glad we did.  The leaves were at their peak in color and the sun was shining.  It did end up very cool but this family was tough.  They braved the cold, put on the smiles and laughed through the shivers... although when not in front of the camera they playfully fought over the blanket.  Despite the cold we had such a nice time and I was fortunate to meet a great family.

Don't let them fool you, that pavement was cold!

Family Fall Portraits {Syracuse}

I have had the great fortune of photographing this family since their youngest daughter was born.    There are no words to describe how wonderful and sweet they are.  I simply adore them.

Fall Photography {CNY}

I think most people who live in the Syracuse area would agree that the fall is absolutely stunning.  The colors are absolutely breathtaking.  Now pair two adorable kids, a fun mom and dad, and you've got the perfect day.

You have to have fun on the shoot!

Senior Photography {Class of 2016}

When I booked this senior session with Joe I was not expecting to have to stand on benches.  Joe's height required me to lift my lighting equipment as high as it would go!  But Joe is not just tall and handsome, he is incredibly sweet and kind.  During the photo shoot he continually carried bags and opened doors.  He participated without one word of complaint.  I hope you never change, Joe!

And his beautiful mom
