[kathryn and travis: engagement shoot]

k and t are getting married next march, here is their pre wedding shoot at the Botannical Gardens (did I mention it is my new favorite place to photograph?) What an adorable couple, they remind me of students I have had in the past, so full of youth and an energetic vibe that I definitely could bottle and sell (or just hoarde for myself.)

[photo love, clothing lust]

I absolutely LOVE this photo from Grosgrain ....Kathleen has recently opened a store selling her clothing line, and I hope that this giveaway outfit makes it to the store. Wouldn't Sophia look awesome in it?

[elisabete and matthew]

probably one of the most eclectic weddings that I had the chance to photograph this year...elisabete is an architect and her love for the industrial side of buffalo was a high priority for our photoshoot (you may remember their engagement shoot...) Gorgeous day and a beautiful ceremony at the Botannical gardens (which I have decided that I could photograph there every day and never tire of it) with photos at Squaw Island and the grain elevators in Buffalo. Their reception was at the Roycroft Inn. This is the last wedding til January, which I just sadly realized is not as far away as I thought.

A few thoughts for those of you getting married: if you want to get fabulous prep pictures, rent a room at the Holiday Inn on Delaware Ave....

The "One-man band" that entertained the reception was Kevin McCarthy...he was awesome!

[brianna and andy part 2: kristen's take]

wow. we shoot A LOT of images. I just finished proofing this wedding and between kristen and i, we are close to 1500. Of course, there was a lot to see....and then there was Kristen's traveling hippo series....

[november sunshine]

who would have thought that we could go outside without coats in mid november? (ok, I suppose that is scary, but I can't say I don't enjoy it!) I love autumn in WNY...

[brianna and andy, part 1]

On October 12, Kristen and I took a little road trip out to Canandaigua for Brianna and Andy's wedding. Brianna is also a teacher at Sweet Home, so we felt right at home at the reception (and got lots of dirt on our colleagues ;) Here is the first installment of images, I'll put up Kristen's images in another post.
