What a wonderful day I spent with Jason and Desiree as they celebrated their nuptials with an intimate backyard wedding near Rochester, NY. Summer is certainly here and the heat was on for the outdoor ceremony, but a steady breeze kept the temps tolerable and plenty of cool drinks made everyone happy. Jason and Desiree are a wonderfully loving Couple with a great group of family and friends who brought laughter and joy to the whole day. We were able to do a non-traditional “First Hug” (as opposed to a First Look) and it made for a great moment. After a lovely ceremony, I took the whole bridal party for a walk in the woods. A couple of members began playing with objects on hand while I was taking some shots of the Bride and Groom, so I decided to go with it. Everyone grabbed something and I think it made for a great photo! As dinner and dancing ensued, I stole Jason and Desiree a few more times throughout the night for some more intimate moments. I love this time of day with a Couple, away from the chaos of the Party; it always makes for great photos as the Bride and Groom get to really just be “alone” as a Couple for a few minutes. As night fell, the bags were packed, sparklers lit, and it was time to say goodbye. Thank you again to Jason and Desiree for inviting me to be a part of your special day!

These are amazing pictures of an amazing couple! Love every one of them. They captured the personalities and great love of this wonderful couple!
What a beautiful day! I love how the photographers captured the goofy moments as well as the sentimental moments. The team was great to work with and I would recommend them to anyone in the area. My favorite picture was the impromptu moment with the treasures in the woods. Those unexpected moments and the most unique and the photographers captured it perfectly.
Live these 2 to death. They’ve become 2 really good friends of mine in such a short time & nothing made me happier than to be a part of their special day. Love you guys to death!! These pictures are amazing!!! Love every single one of them.
Desiree, you look absolutely stunning! So excited for you and Jason ❤️ These photographs will be such sweet reminders.

Your wedding was a blast and these pictures are incredible! I love how much fun your wedding party was and it’s so well captured in these!! Major props to all of you for staying dressed up in such heat! Thanks for including us!
I really like how you were able to take pictures of the two of you before the wedding and still manage for Jason to not see your dress. Very clever! Also, it is so nice to have such a variety of pictures. Btw, my dear Desi you look absolutely georgous in every single one of these! Love you loads!
WOW!!! Just amazing photos of an amazing couple and all their lived ones. You’re photographer was well worth the money. There are just so many truly unique photos of you all that show just what a uniquely wonderful couple you are. They captured the emotional moments so well I got teary eyed just looking at them. I got all the real feels.
Absolutely beautiful pictures!!
I love all the black and white photos. The guys photo with the lines running across the background took my breath away. The silhouette of the bride and groom on the tree reminded me of something out of Peter Pan, wonderfully fantastic. Looks like a fun time was had by the entire wedding party. Great photos to capture the day.
