What is it like to plan a wedding during a pandemic?! Well, I could tell you, (and if you hang out on our IG TV channel, I tell you…) but I think it’s best to hear it from those who literally wore the wedding shoes! Last week’s IG Live attempts were a total bust. So, […]

Interview | What is it like to plan a wedding during COVID-19?

Amanda & Michael decided to tie the knot on their original wedding date, the ever-popular: June 20th, 2020. Their original plan was to have a modern barn wedding, guest list hanging around 175.

Moody Autumn Style Shoot & Giving Thanks | Syracuse Photographer | Syracuse Wedding Design

For lots of us, autumn has arrived! For me, a long-time Central New Yorker, autumn is my favorite: where the air is crisp, the leaf colors are jaw-droppingly glorious, and everything edible is in some irresistible form of a locally-grown apple.
