Last night I had the opportunity to visit and photograph a wedding venue in Marlboro, NY called FloraMoonFarm! It's unusual to start taking photos when the sun goes down but I'm in love with the colors it created!

The natural blue lighting of the sky contrasted with the warm cafe lights perfectly. I really wanted that warm yellow glow so instead of a flash I used an LED light wand set to warm lighting.

I just love this venue because of focus on being outdoors, the adorable little green house and impressive garden. Don't worry, there is also a tent on site in case of inclement weather!

A huge THANK YOU to the awesome vendors that helped make this possible! If you ever need a venue for a smaller wedding, a florist, a makeup artist, or jeweler I HIGHLY recommend these people!!

Countdown: 54 days until the wedding!!!!

I can't wait to see these two get married this fall! These photos are from last year during the fall when we got together at the park during golden hour ✨☀️.

I loved seeing these two have fun together and be their silly selves. Did I mention I have the literal best job ever?

It ended up raining on the day of Robyn and Sarah's engagement session so we had to pivot and I'm not mad about it!

We're not allowed to take posed portraits in the museum so I gave them a few directions and just captured them together candidly.

You can just tell they have the most fun together ❤️

Becca proposed to Melissa at Minnewaska State Park earlier this year! 💍🌿 & while we're all extremely happy for them, I don't think anyone was surprised.

From the first time I saw them together, I could tell how easy their relationship was. How easy it was to laugh together, to overcome problems, and build a life together.

I'm so happy for you two and am looking forward to many more adventures together!

Back on one of the windiest days in March, Nick and Nora got engaged on the Walkway Over the Hudson! It was definitely a story they'll enjoy telling over and over. If you've ever been there before, you know how strong the wind gusts can be up on that bridge.

But something like a little wind could never ruin a moment like this for two people who enjoy each other's company this much.

Cat and Ron are two people who know how to laugh together and just enjoy life, so you know their wedding was a blast! I can't get over how the *perfect* gust of wind came through during their first kiss and added that extra layer of drama.

Don't you love the pictures of their cat Mango that came out on the dance floor?? What a great way to incorporate your pet who can't make it to the wedding.

They even chose to brave the bridge for an epic once-in-a-lifetime shot! (Image #8)

Just a few of my favorites from Genessis and Rebecca's wedding back in 2024. Before their guests arrived we snuck down the road to the trestle for some epic landscape shots.

I just love going through these photos and seeing how happy they were on the day of their wedding celebration ❤️

What an absolute honor to have photographed the wedding of Mrs. & Mr. Katie Rose Bakery!!!

I met Katie a few years ago when I had just started my photography business. I love sweet treats & was looking to make connections in the wedding world so I asked Katie to photograph her baked goods. Being the sweetheart that she is, of course she let me come take photos and bring some treats home 😋

Sometimes the rainy day plans are actually the best ones ☔💍

Andrew and Alex had the most romantic day walking around the garden after a surprise proposal. If you’re thinking about getting engaged in the Hudson Valley, I’d love to help you plan and capture this moment!

Stonecrop Gardens is located in Cold Spring, NY and you do need to pay for a photography permit to take professional photos here.

Ron’s trying to explain to me the intricacies of golf and I’m just trying to pose them in the best lighting 😂

He’s like “this goes here, the flag goes here, we face this way”, I was like Ron this is a photo shoot, nobody cares if you’re set up the correct way or not. So all you golf nerds out there, don’t be scrutinizing these pics for the correct golf etiquette 😛

I can’t wait to photograph Cat and Ron’s wedding tomorrow!!!
