"Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast." (Alice in Wonderland.)

We ventured to Sonnenberg Gardens for the most adorable Spring family pictures. We explored the flowers, the mossy Rock Garden, the Italian Garden and more.

Say hello to Luna in Wonderland!

Erin’s creative background roots began with her family and her education in Digital Media/Fine Arts degree at Canisius College. While she enjoys a good adventure, Erin is most comfortable at home with family (husband, Matt and son, Lucas) or friends, a good book, and a cup of coffee.
