  • Village Gate Family Photography ~ Andrea & Jon

    Debra Wallace

    Village Gate Family Photography ~ Andrea & Jon One of the very best places in Rochester for indoor photography in the winter months is the Village Gate.  I could photograph there the rest of my life and never get bored of the different backgrounds available.  Andrea and Jon decided that it was a good fit

  • Christmas Tree Farm Family Christmas Photos~ Greg & Christina

    Debra Wallace

    Christmas Tree Farm Family Christmas Photos The weather was less than ideal on this specific day, but Christina was a woman after my own heart and we pressed on anyway.  Rain threatened and it was chilly, but we powered through and the kids were absolute troopers. Christina and Greg chose Woody Acres Tree Farm as

  • Scottsville NY Snowy Family Portraits ~ Nicole’s Kids

    Debra Wallace

    Scottsville NY Snowy Family Portraits ~ Nicole’s Kids Nicole opened the door wrapped in a bathrobe sipping tea and croaked, “It sounds worse than it is.” So she didn’t join us for this year’s photos (but hopefully she’s better now!). Serendipitously the snow was very gently falling and Nicole’s kids, who are mostly not really

  • Eastman Gardens Baby Photos ~ Story

    Debra Wallace

    Eastman Gardens Baby Photos This beautiful girl is 3 years old now and I recently realized these images never made their way into a full blog post.  It seemed sad to leave them in the bowels of my external hard drive, so here you go internet!  Warm fuzzy feelings are on their way. This quilt

  • Highland Park Professional Family Photos ~ Naomi & Tracy

    Debra Wallace

    Highland Park Professional Family Photos Naomi and I met serendipitously at a summer home school swimming event and somehow got onto the topic of organic gardening. She and Tracy have 20 years of experience working the soil behind their home and also introduced me to winter gardening (who knew!). However during our initial giant garden

    Debra Wallace

    Mendon Ponds Fall Photography Betty and Derek were originally scheduled for the session at Genesee Valley Park that got moved to Highland Park and then got rained out. We were grateful that this day had much better weather with plenty of leaves at Mendon Ponds for fun loving boys to play in. Logan and Isaac

  • Durand Eastman Board Walk Family Photography ~ Alethea & Geoffrey

    Debra Wallace

    Durand Eastman Board Walk Family Photography Every year I eagerly anticipate this family’s outfits.  Alethea is a portrait photography clothing ninja, as discussed in this post.  This year she chose yellow and blue (the University of Rochester colors, go Yellow Jackets!). However, after picking her color scheme she learned that they don’t make men’s shirts

  • Corbetts Glen Candid Family Photography ~ Susan & Martin

    Debra Wallace

    Corbetts Glen Candid Family Photography ~ Susan & Martin Sue requested a more candid look to their family portraits this fall, which made me a little nervous since some people say that and then when they look at their proofs realize they actually wanted more traditional images.  Sue did not fall in that category.  She

  • Corbett’s Glen Family Portraits ~ Christina & Brian

    Debra Wallace

    Christina and Brian were originally scheduled for the Tamarack Swamp Mini Sessions, but then one of the girls was invited to go on a camping trip. She was ready to say no for the family photo session but life is short and photo sessions are made to be rescheduled! So we ended up in Corbett’s

    Debra Wallace

    Corbett’s Glen Family Photography ~ Tracy & Joe. Six months ago Tracy and Joe got the shock of their lives when they got a phone call that a baby had been born that morning and they had been selected to be their parents. I had the privilege of meeting Adam a week and a half

    Highland Park Child Photography I first met Carson when she and Pat participated with their beautiful son River at the Beautiful Birth Choices Grand Opening photo booth.  Once in a while there are some give aways on my newsletter, and Carson was one of the winners!  If you’d like to join the newsletter to be

  • Ithaca NY Treman State Park Family Portrait ~ Will and Sarah

    Debra Wallace

    Will and Sarah are currently living in Ithaca, which is a place where you trip over waterfalls and do not want to learn how to drive a standard.  Roads have 170 degree turns and are pitched at 80 degree angles, with water dripping down mossy rocks in parking lots and roadsides.  In Rochester people have

  • Tinker Nature Park Family Portraits, Rochester, NY ~ Molly & Mike

    Debra Wallace

    Molly and Mike drove all the way from Massachusetts for their Tinker Nature Park family portraits.  They may have also had some other commitments in town. 🙂 Molly and I first met at a wedding of a mutual friend when she was first thinking about starting a family, and here they are, 11 years later.

  • Genesee Valley Park Baby Photography ~ Valerie & Aaron

    Debra Wallace

    I didn’t know Valerie’s vocation ahead of time, but I guessed that she and Aaron were doctors because of a statement she made about coordinating their schedules.  It turns out they’re both in emergency medicine, which means that you couldn’t help but feel calm in their presence.  I’m pretty sure I ended up oversharing. If

  • University of Rochester Family Portrait Photography ~ Danielle and Alan

    Debra Wallace

    Danielle told me over the phone that Mira is always doing cart wheels and it took about 30 seconds for her to start tumbling down the quad on the University of Rochester campus. We were fortunate with some unusually warm April weather for their Univeristy of Rochester family portrait photography session. Danielle said that she
