Not often that I go grungy on a portrait shoot, but this image seemed to be a good fit for it. . .

Another shot with the amazing @amber.j.stowell in studio yesterday. We had so much fun yesterday creating a variety of looks. This one is a bit more introspective. .

Had an absolutely incredible shoot today with the beautiful and talented @amber.j.stowell in studio. She was great! Relaxed, comfortable, adaptable, and best of all, she put up with my crazy makeshift efforts to get some cool shots! I wil definitely be posting more from this shoot over the coming weeks! . .

In 2011, NY legalized same-sex marriage, and I knew I wanted to find a way to support my many friends who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, or otherwise gender non-conforming. It was then that I decided to offer up my photographic services and shoot my first same-sex wedding for free. The offer has been out there for years, but when Samantha and Kayleigh contacted me about shooting their wedding, I knew I was finally going to get my chance. I couldn't be happier to have had the opportunity to support this beautiful couple, and share on their special day. Here is one image from the end of the night. I would like to thank Sam and Kayleigh for giving me this opportunity, and extend my sincere best wishes for many many years of happy ever after. Much love to Sam and Kayleigh for many years of happy ever after. . . #samesexwedding #samesexmarriage #lesbian #lesbiankiss #lgbtq #lgbtq #lesbianwedding #silhouette #blackandwhite #wedding #weddingphotography #weddingphoto #twobrides #twobridesarebetterthanone #kissshot #backlit #backlight #ocf #offcameraflash #beauty #nikon #nikond7200 #D7200 #speedlight #potd #picoftheday #photo_collective #fstoppers

In honor of the eclipse, which I did not photograph, I went out last night with a few other photographers, to shoot the Milky Way. Figured if I can't shoot the eclipse, might as well do SOMETHING celestial! . . . #milkyway #nightsky #stars #celestial #nikon #nikond7200 #d7200 #tamron1224mm #f4 #30seconds #iso3200 #flpg #ppsnys #hooperphotographic

So, Tumblr just notified me that I've made 100 posts. I guess that's kinda cool. That's a thing, right?

Senior Portraits! I've been away from my portraiture for a couple of months because of my other job, but this week I got back out with my camera for the first senior portraits of the season. Some people get pumped for pumpkin spice everything, but for me, nothing says Fall like Senior Portraits! And when you're shooting with beautiful people like @green.beannn, you're bound to create some incredible images! That's so much, Danielle, for choosing me to do your photos. It was an honor to spend a few hours with you! . . #seniorpictures #seniorpics #seniorportraits #seniorphotos #classof2018 #countrygirl #nikon #nikond7200 #nikkor85mm #speedlight #speedlightstudio #studio #westcott #blonde

Sometimes happy accidents still make me very happy. My flash failed to fire, causing a 1 second exposure as the bridesmaid fitted the bride with her veil. Love the softness that came out with the motion blur. . . #weddingphotography #love #weddingdress #bride #bridesmaid #veil #softfocus #weddingday #nikon #d7200 #nikond7200 #availablelight #longexposure #beauty
