{ Santiaga: Gates-Chili Senior Portraits } rochester, ny photographer

A few more senior sessions are coming up this month, and I'm finally catching up on blogging some from earlier this year!

Santiaga booked very early in the season but purposely chose a date in late September so she didn't have to deal with the 90+ temps we had all summer. Of course it was 85 the day of her session anyways, lol. With a yearbook deadline only days away, I skipped her blog post in order to get her gallery moving asap.

A self-confident girl, she was just totally comfortable with who she is. Here are a few of my favorites to capture all that personality!

{ Michelle: Greece Olympia Senior Portraits Part I } rochester, ny photographer

I love that Olympia pushed their yearbook deadline out this year - November 30th! That gives me a few more weeks to fit some last minute senior portraits in.

Michelle had her studio portion a week or so ago... what can I say about these images except they are SO simple, clean & fabulous! Here are a few of my favorites:





Michelle is a super happy, bubbly girl - but I made her try some serious shots too. WOW, she can rock that look when she wants to!!


I've had lots of dancers in the studio before, but never one with a tutu! She had this specially made for her session, awesome!


Looking forward to an amazing Part II outdoors as soon as this weather breaks!

{ Family Portraits } rochester, ny modern family portrait photographer

As senior portrait season winds down, we roll right into peak season for kids & families!

The forecast was pretty bleak on this day, but we actually had a beautiful fall morning! I met this mom a few years ago in a photography class downtown. We sort of lost touch, and then along comes Facebook. Yay! And since it's virtually impossible to photograph your OWN family session, I was honored when she asked me to take care of it for her.

This first location was just a random spot along a road that I noticed a few days before. Unfortunately we got yelled at for trespassing so I'm not going to mention where it is, lol. But it was beautiful for sure!! (And in case you're wondering, yes this is the real sky, not one I photoshopped in :-)



A short drive to a nearby park and more gorgeous fall colors!


Mom knows I love kids in hats, so she brought along a few to use!



This is the very last frame from the session, and I think it's my very favorite one of them all together! As much as a photographer loves a wide shot to capture the scenery along with the family.... I think a perfectly exposed close up with everyone smiling is what it's all about!
