Sometimes You Just Have to Believe… | Rochester NY Family Photographer

February 28, 2009

So listen.

When you are photographing children under the age of say…oh…10…

You have to be on the ball.  There’s no “okay.  just hold that while I get it right” going on.  There’s no three hour window.

Little kids move fast.  They tire of you quickly.  And there are many times when you have to just trust to the powers that be that you are going to get the images you hope to get.

Knock knock jokes started us off today.

Then silly faces (omg wait until you see THOSE).

Dancing.

Yeah.  I was heavily into trusting the outcome would be good because we never stopped moving.  ::grin::

I was super impressed with these two beautiful girls today.  The charming miss N.  and miss S.

And when they busted out the tutus?  Seriously?!  Could they be cuter?

You tell me…

C — here’s your sneak peek.  Thank YOU for letting us have fun with the camera today!

Beautiful Inside and Out | Rochester NY Photographer

February 18, 2009

Meet the gorgeous Ms. A.  She’s putting her modeling portfolio together – and as a result came to me for some photographs to send off to agencies.

I’m so glad she did.

We had tons of fun playing with colors and layers and being both inside and outside.  I’m sure you’ll agree that any agency that gets to her first will be the lucky one!

Here’s your sneak peek!

An Illustration of How An Idea Develops | Rochester NY Photographer

February 9, 2009

When I am in the middle of a photo session – I have to admit to not knowing exactly where the shoot is going.  I like to guage the reactions of my clients…what they like…don’t like…what they hope to end up with…how playful they are…on and on.

It’s why every shoot ends up completely different from any other one.

1.5 hours after we finished Holly and Doug’s  shoot — Holly was texting me…”u r killing us…we need to see pics!”  Haha — she’s so cute!   I promised a couple yesterday and a couple more today (but this is IT until we meet again Holly!  ::laughing::).

When I spent time with them during their engagement session — two things quickly became obvious — the first — that they completely ADORE each other:

And second…I found out that they would go along with ANY suggestion I came up with.  How much fun is that?!   We waited a while for access to the taxi inside the Center at High Falls but I think the wait was worth it.  You HAVE to love this image!  And yes, I added the city skyline…it just CALLED out for me to do that…::grin::

Good Golly Ms. Holly! | Rochester NY Wedding Photographer

February 8, 2009

All the stars aligned.

Bells Rang.

People started clapping.

Yeah.  It was THAT session today with Holly and Doug.  They found each other — and thank goodness they found me — I often say — I fall in love with each one of my couples for good reason — my couples and clients get me, my style and are willing to just go with whatever we come up with during their session and on their wedding day.  It’s what makes their images uniquely THEM and I work hard to capture personality and emotion.

I NAILED it with Holly and Doug.  We laughed and giggled and I won’t even TELL you some of the things that happened because…well…you just had to be there.  (okay.  let me just say:  changing clothes…museum…and the words “I’m not shy” were spoken.  yep. )

Wait until you see the Save the Date I have in my head.  But we have to wait to finish it — because it has a part two — which won’t happen until February 22 – but just….wait.

Amazing.

Here’s your sneak peek Holly and Doug!!  Thanks for trusting me today!
