About a year ago, a very old friend of mine contacted me to let me know that he had asked the woman he loved to spend the rest of his life with him. I was honored that he wanted me to document this most important moment.

From this couple’s mutual love of home cooked meals to their eclectic music tastes, Dan and Kristin are truly meant for each other. On their wedding day they were both only concerned with how the other was feeling and the looks of love shared between them were beautifully genuine.

Dan and Kristin’s day started at their home in North Tonawanda where Kristin was to get ready. Her bridesmaids and future Mother-in-law were all there to help her into her gorgeous gown. 

From their home, we traveled to Niagara Falls, NY. I was so happy to be photographing Dan and Kristin in one of my favorite churches, St. Vincent  de Paul. It’s beautiful open ceilings and colorful stained glass windows are among the prettiest of the modern churches in our locale.

We traveled to Fort Niagara State Park and to Three Sister’s Island for portraits after the ceremony on this frigid and windy autumn day. Dan and Kristin were troopers and we  captured some fantastic images here.

After portraits, we came back to North Tonawanda for the reception at the Knights of Columbus where Banchetti by Rizzo’s put out a delicious meal that everyone raved about! 

Dan and Kristin, I was so happy to be a part of the beginning of your lives together. You two deserve many, many happy years!

Nick and Katherine had a truly Buffalo, NY wedding. Katherine's getting ready portion of the day started off at The Buffalo Club. This venue is probably one of the most beautiful buildings in Buffalo. The multiple fireplaces, original (1867) woodwork, and features of brand new renovations, makes for a one of a kind backdrop for this beautiful family.

From The Buffalo Club, we met up with the groom at the Buffalo Seminary. The Buffalo Seminary is one of the earliest founded all girls schools in western New York (1851) and today, still provides an outstanding education available to young women. It was here in the intimate chapel that Nick and Katherine vowed their ever lasting love for each other on October 11th, 2014.

After this beautiful ceremony we were invited to Knox Mansion by the current owner for a portrait session. The owner has meticulously kept the gardens at this historic site and we were so excited to have been invited to photograph in them. 

We also visited the Erie Marina Basin during sunset. It was a little chilly for the bridal party, but they gave their all and we made some wonderful images here.

The reception took place at Templeton Landing. Another Buffalo, NY staple. The venue is gorgeous and looks out onto the basin. The service and food is exceptional and suited this couple perfectly.

Nick and Katherine met in grade school and started dating when they both attended Geneseo College. From their love of cooking for each other to their eclectic music tastes, they are perfect partners. The love they share shines in their eyes. When they were together, they were both only concerned with how the other felt and what the other needed. 

Nick and Katherine, you are both such a beautiful couple. I wish you many years of happiness and joy in your marriage!

Have you ever sat down to think about how you are going to pop the question? 

Well this guy put more than a little bit of thought into it! I was recently asked to capture a moment that no woman would ever 

want to forget. 

This hopeful fiance had the big moment planned months in advance, while his bride-to-be had no idea it was coming. When he went down on one knee, she eased his nerves with a very simple word: "yes". He choose a beautiful spot, Terrapin Point, over-looking Niagara Falls, NY and created a moment that they will treasure forever. The formal session took place after the initial proposal.
