Hiya, friend! Welcome to my little corner of the web. Here you'll find tons of past sessions, session and wedding tips & tricks, and free resources regarding all types of photography.

We went to DC last weekend to visit my sister and future brother-in-law, and while I didn’t take enough photos, I wanted to share some of the ones I did take. First stop was the Botanical Gardens which was bonkers-busy and crawling with way too many people, but it was so lovely and we enjoyed […]

Weekend in Washington, D.C.

Sarah is a rockstar – both behind the camera and in front of it. We have worked together on several weddings and shoots in the past year or so, and I could not be happier to have met another photographer from the Capital Region like myself who is down to get all the creative juices […]

Mini Branding Session with Sarah Busso Photography

Sierra and Zach so graciously volunteered for my idea to do an impromptu model call for a couples’ session at Thacher Park. The view at the park alone never disappoints. But add in a dose of perfect evening weather and an adorable couple, and we were making magic, baby. I mean, these colors – SERIOUSLY?! […]

Couple’s Session at Thacher Park

I had the opportunity to do an intimate couples photo session with an old high school classmate and his stunning new wife! It was such a blast reconnecting with Hayes, meeting Rajshree, and capturing their love in a natural light studio near Albany, New York. Let me start by saying that this styled session was […]

Styled Studio Couples Session with Rajshree & Hayes

Hannah and Nicholas’s BEAUTIFUL winter wedding at the Lodge on Echo Lake was my first of 2023, and holy cow! Celebrating this lovely couple was THE way to start the year out, let me tell you. From my first meeting with Hannah and her dad at a little coffee shop in downtown Albany, to our […]

Winter Wonderland Wedding in the Adirondacks

I had the opportunity back in February to capture some beautiful moments during this adorable lifestyle studio newborn session in Albany. This session filled my cup! There were many colorful and heartwarming moments that perfectly captured the joy and love of this new family. Eden and Cuyler came to my home, where I photographed them […]

Around Our House

To say this family is one of my favorites would be an understatement. I have worked with the Peters’ clan twice in the past two years and I love getting to be around them, let alone photograph them. They are so sweet together and you can so obviously see all the love that is shared […]

Fall Family Session at Normanskill Farm

Anna and Colton’s beautiful September wedding was nothing short of wonderful. The love and happiness these two share was so clearly sewn into their day. Surrounded by dear family and friends, Anna and Colton tied the knot at the Rose Garden in Schenectady, New York, followed by a fantastically fun reception at Key Hall at […]
