Meet Dana: a wonderful student at Fairport High School. It was my pleasure to meet Dana for her senior photos, and do something a little unique. We started at her house and worked around her mother's fabulous gardens. Dana was the first senior whom I've had request to include her cat also! As I'm always up for anything, or course we did! A little while into the session, Dana's friend, (and another of my senior's this year) Monica, came biking up the driveway. She jumped in a few shots with Dana and her car before we headed off to Corbett's Glen to finish up the session.

Renny, Reese & Louise | Yacht Club Portraits

I met Renny and Reese and their little dog, Louise, at the Brockport Yacht Club for a relaxed photo session. It was a nice night, with only a few people around packing up their boats. The sun came in and out of the clouds, providing us with a variety of lighting conditions. We wandered around the boat house, using the docks and beach as our backgrounds. It was a perfect fit for them, and I was so glad to be the one capturing them on this day! Thanks Renny and Reese for inviting me into your world, I hope you enjoy the memories as much as I will. -Lori

Penfield Senior Pictures: Aaron

Meet Aaron: laid back, easy going and in his senior year at Penfield High School. We met at the Penfield Town Hall on a nice summer evening. The location offered a great deal of options in a small area: brick, trees, steps, white doors, and flowers. Aaron brought his amazing smile, and that was all we needed for a great evening of portraits. It was a pleasure working with you, have a great year Aaron!-Lori

If you are from Fairport, there is a good change you know Julie. She runs the Red Bird Market in the Village, and it has been my pleasure getting to know her and Bob since moving here. Earlier this summer, I got the opportunity to meet their three amazing kids as well. It was perfect timing, as two of them just graduated and moved out of state! Everyone was so fun to work with, and we even got the cats in the family photo! I loved the natural setting surrounding their house, and it was the perfect complement to their images. Here are a few of my favorite captures from the day, enjoy!

To Phil, David and Nancy, best wishes on your next adventures! To Julie and Bob, see you around! :)

365 Project : Part 10, October!

Alright friends, I have a confession to make. I missed a day, well two. But, I have not given up! I must keep moving forward, I've come to far to let this drop, so here are this month's images. In October, I found more time for personal things. I got in some hiking, some family time, games, a corn maze and wine tour all on top of making some fun images for clients! Enjoy :) -Lori

Mom & Kids: Rochester NY Family Portraits

I met Carla and her four kids down at the canal in Pittsford for their casual portraits. Maia, Siena, Roman & Adrian were a pleasure to photograph! They all brought their own personalities to the group, but all fit together as a family as well. It helps that the girls are very fashionable too! Check out this fun group and leave them some love in the comments! -Lori

Jordan is a laid back senior, into soccer and skiing. He wanted an architectural element to his photos, so we walked around the Village of Fairport. We definitely found some great locations for some unique looks. Then we headed back to his yard to grab some shots with his dog, Whiskey. We also grabbed some casual shots in his favorite soccer jersey. This really was an easy going session, thanks to Jordan! Great seniors make for great sessions! ~ Lori

Have a great senior year! Lori

Family Portraits with the Dog | Perinton NY

It was a nice Summer day when I met Tristan, Tiara, Trisha and parents at Perinton Park. We gathered to celebrate Tristan's graduation and get a family portrait before he headed off to college in Texas. We took a couple of formal shots with him in his tux, then went casual and included the family dog to make the photos complete. Trisha enjoyed modeling for the camera most of all. Thanks for working with us guys, and we hope to see you again soon!

Karli is a beautiful senior girl at Hilton High School. We met out at Mendon Ponds Park for her senior photos. My favorite images include the barn and sunflower field that were just up the road. She kept her outfits simple, but they worked so well! Thanks for the adventure Karli, and have a great senior year! -Lori

Benjamin, Tyler, and Carter are three amazing, energetic young brothers. They have a fun backyard with a play set, pool, and room to run too! I had a blast chasing them around for this casual portrait session. Mom and Dad were great as well, and we got some portraits of the two of them while the boys enjoyed their treats. I can't wait to watch these boys grow, and see what shenanigans we can get into next year! Enjoy! -Lori

A Senior Session on the Ice: Fairport NY High School

We love it when our senior sessions present a unique opportunity. Luke not only gave us a unique opportunity, but he also gave us a fun challenge. He's a goalie for the Fairport Hockey team. So after we did some of his senior portraits at home, we headed over to Thomas Creek Ice Arena. He suited up, while we lit up the ice rink...very carefully. It definitely fun to try some new things and get some different looks than usual!

And, we even managed to stay upright on the ice the whole time. I think that almost qualifies us for the Stanley Cup...right?

This past summer, my husband and I had the opportunity to take a long weekend to Massachusettes to visit family, photograph a few sessions and spend some time on the beach. The trip was much to short, but lots of fun! We stopped in Boston first for a two part family session starting at the Boston Commons. As we walked in, we saw a man drop to a knee and propose to his girlfriend right in front of us. I looked around and sure enough, there was a photographer not far away documenting it! That was a first. Then we turned our focus to Ciaran, who wasn't quite ready to model, until a passing dog put a big smile on his face. The next day, we finished the session at a stunning Horticultural Center with acres of beautiful flowers and manicured grounds.

Before leaving Boston, we also took a few business headshots for Mulrooney a+d. This architectural firm wanted something a little non-traditional for their portraits, and of course, we had to include some architectural elements in the images. I love how these turned out. Check out more of their work at mulrooneyad.com.

For part two, we drove out to Cape Cod to photograph another wonderful family. We saw a few sprinkles, but the kids didn't seem to mind one bit. Ronan enjoyed running everywhere, while Caitrin was 100% smiles. We had some really nice locations to work with, and ended up at the beach. We took a few family shots, then it was time to enjoy the water. Aside from the seagull who decided my lunch looked tasty, we had a great afternoon!

It was a bit of a whirlwind trip, but so worth it to spend time with such great people. I hope this becomes a tradition! Thanks for inviting us guys! Lori
