Lately, I have been finding creative tools and inspiration while reading Thinkertoys by Michael Michalk. Totally worth a read for any artist...or anyone at all really. So after some deep thought, I developed my 'Personal Hall of Fame'. This list is a reflection of my upbringing, local history, and education for sure. Completely based on what I found interesting throughout my life. Give it a try.
The leaders and inventors: each of these bigger than life people all have a common bond of freedom and ingenuity.
john locke
abraham lincoln
benjamin franklin
george washington carver
frederick douglass
susan b. anthony
The writers and artists: many are my daily inspiration.
edward hopper
alfred stieglitz
maxfield parrish
berenice abbott
ansel adams
leonard bernstein
walt whitman
ralph waldo emerson
thomas cole
Local photographers: these photographers have mentored or motivated me. Some are no longer in Rochester, but all have left their mark, and hepled pave the way for my wedding photography.

Rochester New York Engagement { photographs }!!!
Rolling into the weekend with another super special blog post! Sandra and Chad are great friends! They are young, in love, and totally made for each other. They are basically family. Near and dear to our hearts. I was so excited to hang out with them in the Neighborhood of the Arts and photograph this beautiful couple on a gorgeous Rochester winter day! We photographed until my fingers would move no more. Good times with great people!!!
Love life!

Bethesda Maryland Wedding { photographs }!!!
Sometimes life comes full circle, and puts the world around us in perspective. This month I was honored to photograph my high school friend Erin, and her fabulous groom Geoff. Erin was my Senior Prom date! If she was willing to have me at her wedding after that awkward evening, then I must be doing something right:) Three bridesmaids, and many guests are good friends too. Making this wedding even more special than ever. The beautiful wedding of Erin and Geoff was a stunning example of true love on display. They are in complete and total love. Together beaming with joy. The amazing Strathmore Mansion hosted their sweet Winter wedding. Also, Erin made her own dress, which I think is coolest! Geoff rocked the camera like the lead signer to Coldplay! The party was perfect. Great moments I will cherish forever!

Having the winter blues. Using some photographs, I took way back in 2006, to try and escape for a moment. Right now it is 12 degrees outside...maybe less!
