a roundabout way back to RochesterApril 4th, 2010

After all of the hoopla surrounding my CPP exam, the annual Northeast Convention and my bathroom remodel, I decided to take the long way back to Rochester and visit friends on the East coast. Boston, Cooperstown and Binghamton top the list….

Wales VacationOctober 5th, 2009

Wales was a fast and emotional trip, but worth it! I have returned and am back at work. This trip was all about visiting with my family and there was plenty of that. I even got the cousins together for a pub crawl one night. I was also able to check 2 more castles off of my list and do a bit of hiking. A highlight was finally seeing heather in bloom on the Welsh mountains!

Nate & Jill Generational PortraitureAugust 7th, 2009

After the crazy wedding weekend in Denver, I stayed a few extra days to visit with and photograph Nate & Jill and their new baby, Geneva! There is absolutely no better way to spend the day than to listen to a baby laughing. Seriously!

Modern PhotographersMay 4th, 2009

Just a quick update today to let everyone know that I have been accepted into both the Wedding Photo Journalist Association (WPJA) and the Modern Photographers (which own Trash the Dress)! This is a great honor for me as these two organizations are International and require approval, unlike most organizations which just let us pay our way in!

Quick trip to VermontMarch 3rd, 2009

This weekend was really fun! A Bride (Stephanie & Howard) from 2008 invited me to meet her and some friends in Burlington for the annual Magic Hat Mardi Gras and so I couldn’t say no! We had planned on Trashing her Wedding Dress during the parade, however it was very cold and we were very [...]

Returned from the land of Sun!January 15th, 2009

Well, the rest of Sedona was pretty much the same… chasing sunrises and sunsets and hiking in between! It was seriously difficult to leave for the conference in Phoenix! Partially because Sedona was so awesome, and partially because I was at this conference last year, I didn’t get a lot out of the speakers. I [...]

My Mother’s only sister is very ill at the moment, and my Mom is in Boston with her. So, I am going to take my work with me and go for a visit. It seems pretty serious, but maybe not life threatening and the Doctors are still trying to sort out what is wrong. Anyway, [...]

Sometimes Random Spontaneity is BestOctober 19th, 2008

So, I worked all day Saturday and just as I headed downstairs and away from the computer… randomly walking around the kitchen wondering what I was going to eat and what I was going to do for the evening… my phone rings. It is my sister. Her ex-boyfriend’s brother and his friend are in Rochester [...]

Camping part deuxSeptember 1st, 2008

Another cancelled wedding, another weekend camping! It was so sad that one of my couples had to postpone their wedding. The economy trickles down and affects everyone. Being a holiday weekend, I took advantage by going camping with my friends instead of working. Trust me, I’d rather be working, but since I wasn’t able to.. [...]

Back from Mexico!July 22nd, 2008

Well, I have returned from the land of sun and sand. Lots of both! My Aunt Kathy sponsored a trip for the Aunts/Nieces of the family to visit Mexico, where my Aunt Colleen hosted. It was an amazing gathering of family who has never been terribly close and we certainly have never traveled together before. [...]
