Allison + Josh, 20 Sep 08

Allison was a bridesmaid for one of Alan's weddings last year, and she wanted to hire him. Due to unforseen circumstances, I was called in to backfill for Alan and deliver for her and Josh. I was glad I had the chance to shoot their intimate, laid-back ceremony and reception at the Lower Mill in Honeoye Falls. Allison was super-excited about the day and could barely contain her emotions. All in all, it made for lovely photographs that I am proud to present.

The veil and dress were just perfect in color and style for Allison. Really splendid.












I like how this one kinda makes a heart shape






Enjoy the memories from this friendly pleasant day.

Pauline + John, 13 Sep 08

Some more from Pauline + John's awesome wedding. Since their wedding was on the 13th, they incorporated the number in some of the reception decorations. What I didn't realize until today was that this was my 13th wedding! What a coincidence!

A little fun before the ceremony


Pauline and John wanted some shots with graffiti in the background. We even bribed a guy that was there painting to paint the date-- and he did a surprisingly good job!


Funky shoes + colors


The decorations were amazing.. so well coordinated and classy. Many were hand-made and the quality showed.




Some snuggles after the reception :) :) It was at this time that I left...


Thanks again- this wedding was awesome and fun to work on.

Naomi & Robert, 7 Sep 08

Sunday September 7th brought me to the intimate ceremony and reception of Naomi and Robert. With a very laid back and non-traditional attitude they held a unique wedding with a close friend officiating and no bridesmaids or groomsmen (quite the contrast from my last wedding!) in Genesee Valley Park, followed by a reception at the Inn on Broadway in downtown Rochester.

Naomi and Robert were friendly and relaxed the whole day (except a little bit before the ceremony :)) and it showed through in the photos. The ceremony, held outdoors, had nice partly cloudy skies and cool weather. It honored the Jewish heritage of Naomi's family with a Chuppah, the smashing of the glass, and the Katubah signing (marriage license / contract) immediately afterward.

Their friend's Meghan assisting Naomi with the preparation:


Breaking with most traditions, Robert was there to help Naomi get ready




Relaxing a bit before heading out


Robert with this really cool retro-esque hat


Naomi couldn't resist playing on the playground after the ceremony


Soon after, we headed over to the Inn on Broadway for a nice reception in their upstairs banquet hall. Everyone had a fabulous time relaxing and enjoying the time together.


Robert and his mom:


the first dance.. can you feel the passion?


And finally some details of the wedding:


Thanks Naomi & Rob for allowing me the privilege of photographing your wedding.
