Hi! Thanks for coming!
I'd like to say I am normal, but let's face it, I am a big dork. I make a lot of funny faces and weird voices. I laugh at myself a lot....mostly because others are and well....its catchy. It's good to laugh at yourself once in a while...or at least that is what I tell myself. I am an ice cream lover, and I could eat it everyday for the rest of my life. Chocolate makes life a bit easier when it gets hard. I may not go to church as much as I'd like, but my faith is never ending and never weakens regardless. I generally speak before I think. I am a fighter for all things I believe in. My nose crinkles when I laugh and my eyebrows raise when I get upset. I love to travel but hate being away from my puppy. I never measure when I cook so good luck if you ever need a recipe. I am honest and open. I will tell you anything you want to know if you don't already know me and if you do, you can read me like an open book. I wish I had more time for reading, but am working on that. I am not perfect and would never want to be. I am unpredictable and ever changing. I get bored easily. My favorite place to travel to is Hawaii and my husband promises we will retire there someday....I don't know if I will ever retire. I am truly a creative soul and photography is my way of showing the world that spirit. I love the challenge of location shooting and that's my main focus. I try new things, but try not to get lost in that. I know who I am and I take a lot of time to get to know my clients (a.k.a friends). Every person and relationship is completely unique and I want to show that. I love love. I love laughter. I love life. I want to capture all aspects of life and relationships. This is what makes me 150% happy and I hope it makes you happy too! Oh and my personality is pretty fun....so come meet me ;) Feel free to contact me by email or phone if you have any questions or if you are interested in booking your session with me :) Watch me shoot:

5 things we love (the personal side):
1.) Our family! 2.) Our friends! 3.) The beach in the summer in Florida, and the fall in NY! 4.) The dog (Ty) and 2 cats (Jake and Leo)! 5.) Traveling!
5 things we love (the professional side):
1.) Our clients telling their friends and family about us! 2.) Happy and laid back brides and grooms! 3.) Unique details and fun colors! 4.) Lots of Love and Lots of Laughs! 5.) Super fun and energetic weddings!
Why we love what we do!
Gonna try to keep this short and sweet, cause' we could go on for days! -We love the smiles, the the happy tears, and the laughter when people look over their images and notice things after, that they may not have in the moment of the day! -We love the look in our couples' eyes when they see each other or have that first dance together....it's a tear jerking moment for everyone watching. - We love the details and setups we get to see! -We love dancing at receptions....all with camera in hand! -We love being the ones responsible for the photographic moments you are going to look back on 40 years later with your grandchildren! -We love love, and laughter, and fun, and tears (happy only!), and everything that comes with a wedding! -We love the looks on the fathers/mothers/families faces when they give their daughter away to her new husband....it's such a touching moment! - We love the time we get to spend with our couples at the engagement shoots, their family shoots, their senior sessions, or watching babies sleep at newborn sessions! - We love the emotions people bring out at their sessions, the dynamic of relationships, watching a child and their mother play, a boy and his father throw a ball together, or just the whole family dancing and laughing! -We love love love families....we have a close one and we jump at the chance to photograph them....just awesome! -We love the sass of senior sessions, the playfulness of child sessions, the tranquility of newborns, and the excitement of maternity sessions! -We truly love it! Could you tell?!

Thursday, April 15, 2010 Posted in Weddings, couples, networking/professional events, vendors

First, let me say when I met Jamie, I felt like we hit it off immediately. I really, truly believe that when you speak to someone or meet them, or chat via email….you should feel that spark or chemistry right now. A warm and fuzzy feeling if you will….I think that should be there. That’s...
