Extended Family Portraits in the Finger Lakes
Oh where do I start with this gang? It’s been four years since I saw them last— at Rebecca and Dan’s wedding. We had a blast then, and we had a blast again now!
So much has happened in 4 years. The addition of Samantha, some hardships overcome, and a special birthday to celebrate. And check out this 1906 Ford Model A Roadster, with matching pint size version for the littlest member of the family.
It couldn’t have been a better day, with those perfect fall leaves, a brand new puppy to love on and the amazing people I got to spend the day with. Okay, it could have been a few degrees warmer maybe, if we had to be picky.
I wouldn’t trade this for the world. We’re so grateful to be in your lives and documenting these days for you. Love to you all!

Carlton’s senior pictures were anything but ordinary. This Brighton High School Class of 2026 senior describes himself as relaxed, active, and outdoorsy - and it showed. When his mom joined in for a playful water fight, the laughter and candid moments made for unforgettable senior photos.

Abby, a Class of 2026 senior from Victor High School, wanted something classic and timeless for her senior pictures which were completely different from her sister’s bold, graffiti-inspired session.

Moody skies, a glowing canal, and a hauntingly beautiful sound — Hailey Kait’s brand photography session in Fairport, NY captured her mysterious, nostalgic vision. From headshots to album art, each portrait reflects her indie acoustic style and soulful artistry.
The daughter of filmmakers, Lori may have been predestined for a life in the creative world. She met her husband, John, while studying photography at RIT. When not creating heirlooms for her friends, family, and clients, she can usually be found in the woods or on a yoga mat. Either way, her dogs Molley and Mouse are never far away.
