  • Rochester, NY Toddler Photography ~ Trevor

    Debra Wallace

    You may remember this cute little guy from his one year old photos.  Danielle and Larry’s enthusiasm is amazing and I thoroughly enjoy working with them.  They make it so easy to get great facial expressions and Trevor is such a cute little guy!  He’s going to be a big brother very shortly – super

  • Losing Matthew ~ Our experience with the death of a child

    Debra Wallace

    by Debra Wallace My intensity scared the social worker but my uterus was not cooperating and God help anyone who stood in my way. The training classes were not enlightening and the questions were invasive but I filled out forms, checked boxes and waited impatiently. I was weeding a flower bed when a water break

  • When Photography Heals

    Debra Wallace

    I went to school to be a therapist and I never felt like I could make a difference so we became foster parents and tried to have babies – though neither worked out quite like we’d planned.  A few years later I learned about Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep – an organization where

  • Ithaca NY Newborn Photography ~ Della 10 days old

    Debra Wallace

    Sarah and Travis received a newborn session as a baby shower gift from a good friend – what a perfect shower gift!  Their family was an absolute joy to work with and Della was just absolutely stunning.  She even had especially nice skin for a newborn.  Sarah has an extremely unusual job – leave a

  • Rochester, NY Candid Child Photography ~ Ansley and Luke

    Debra Wallace

    One of the first photographers whose work I fell in love with doesn’t photograph children.  It took me a while to realize that part of the reason his images looked so technically perfect *all the time* was because he was working with adults.  Kids are a completely different ball game.  Sometimes – no all the

  • Rochester, NY Family Photography ~ Steve & Sarah

    Debra Wallace

    When I walked in the door Sarah had this great list of ideas she wanted to try during the photo shoot.  This was an idea she got from Pinterest.  Luke had his own opinion but we did manage to catch this shot – he is so incredibly cute!   Animal shots, are very, very challenging.

  • Fairport, NY One Year Old Photography ~ Sarah and Sam

    Debra Wallace

    I first met Sam and Sarah when she was pregnant with Elliot and then got to meet him as a newborn who wasn’t too interested in sleeping for his newborn pictures. I felt so fortunate to see him all grown up as a one year old – he’s so sweet! We had to reschedule a

  • Travelogue ~ Niagra Falls, Ontario Canada with three small children

    Debra Wallace

    For 20 years my mom has prepared gourmet Thanksgiving meals with my stepfather, Harvey.  We spent many turkey eating holidays in Ithaca, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, and my aunt’s ranch in Texas. Lung cancer took Harvey’s life in March, so this year called for something completely different.  Rather than choke down turkey with gravy and mashed potatoes

  • 6 Creative Ideas for an Awesome Family Photo Session

    Debra Wallace

    A lot of people request candid photographs, which is a term that’s become kind of amorphous.  Technically if you hired someone to photograph you and got dressed up it’s not *really* candid.  So if you wanted those, you’d pretty much have to live with a photographer (who may not take pictures of your family because

  • Rochester, NY Maternity Photography ~ Samantha

    Debra Wallace

    I was working on a project and desperately needed a pregnant woman.  Sam was absolutely wonderful and agreed to help me out even though she was not feeling super attractive (I wish I looked this good when I’m pregnant!!!).  I am so grateful for her help and her beautiful daughters were so wonderful and happy

  • How to Create Amazing Christmas and Holiday Cards

    Debra Wallace

    My favorite non professional printer is Shufferfly.  They do the best job of anyone on the market, in my opinion.  We have gotten our Christmas cards through them for many years, but we’ll be doing something a little different this year. Our family photo is kind of pathetic… I admit.  It’s like how contractor’s houses

  • the 5 Very Best (and not so great) Baby Shower Gifts of All Time

    Debra Wallace

    I once heard a woman with 13 children say she was no expert on raising children. How true!  I think the more kids you have the less you know about kids themselves, but you do get some kind of experience with what tools you need to navigate the baby years.  So from that point of

  • One Year Old – Trevor’s Portraits at Highland Park

    Debra Wallace

    The occasion for these photos was Trevor turning one year old.  He was premature so this was even more special than normal – celebrating health, life and not being in the NICU! It was a beautiful day in Highland Park and Danielle and Larry came equipped with a bag full of toys and a truck
