I first met Sandy when she invited our local home school group consisting of 1100 members over to her house to swim in her magazine ready pool. She eagerly welcomed me – a complete stranger, into her home along with my fifteen kids, who delighted in being able to go in the deep end without

This little guy was reluctant to make his appearance, but finally did after a quick and (according to his mom easy!!) delivery. Meet baby N, 8 days old. Chili NY newborn baby photos. This mom is a huge fan of baby wearing. If you’ve scratched the surface, you know that your favorite wraps are like

Rochester NY Home Based Newborn Photography ~ Westley
Westley surprised his parents by arriving 7 weeks early. He spent several weeks in the NICU and Jaime wasn’t sure exactly when he’d be home. We changed session dates a few times, and then they were pleasantly surprised with an early discharge. They had only been home three days when I had the opportunity to

1,000 Islands 2016
We spend a lot of the summer on Cayuga Lake, but had never been vacationing many other places in New York. My husband resisted the idea of leaving town again, but I won him over when some very close friends of ours invited us to their family’s vacation home in the 1,000 Islands. Because I’m

Genesee Valley Park Baby Photography ~ Valerie & Aaron
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

Black Creek Park Family Portraits ~ Laura & Jon
Before Laura became one of the very best doulas on the planet, she says she was a “wanna be” photographer. The idea was that we would go to a park and she would take our family portraits and I would take hers. Interestingly, my kids did not cooperate at all (I’ll publish those pictures soon

Listen to Your Mother Rochester 2016
The amount of work that goes into a production like Listen to Your Mother Rochester is hard to appreciate unless you spend a little time backstage. The sound, the height of the stool, the managing of emotions and tension and makeup. It’s all very charged. Some women were preparing to share some of their most

Webster, NY Newborn Photography ~ Adam, 11 days old
Tracy previously gifted a newborn session to her sister Lindsey in the fall and I had the privilege of meeting my birthday buddy Harlon. And even though she told me this, I completely did not put two and two together that she works with Betsy, Tj’s mom. I had no idea that they were waiting

Listen to Your Mother Rochester 2016 Auditions are open now!
Katie’s boys took up taxodermy and turned her garage into a “little shop of horrors,” a story she shared at last year’s Listen to Your Mother show. Last year was the inaugural year in Rochester and was widely advertised in the media and sold out. This year it’s coming back, and if you have a

Not quite perfect ~ North Chili sibling photography
My 9 year old daughter has some anxiety issues that make her difficult to parent (and home school). She makes situations worse than they need to be and challenges my patience more than all of my other children combined. But every day she gets her two year old brother up from his nap and she

North Chili Newborn Portraits ~ Nathan
When I got into newborn photography I envisioned that my newborns would have the most extensive modeling portfolio in the country. Instead, I’ve found that after giving birth I tend to be pretty disinterested in my camera and very interested in my pillow. A friend recently forwarded me this blog post: How to Post Partum

A Birth Story ~ Nathan
We are thrilled to announce the safe arrival of our newest baby, Nathan Michael. He was due on August 30th, so we were inundated with “have you had the baby” questions and trying to manage life with older children while waiting. Each day was a little bit of a challenge since the kids were not

Wall Art ~ See before you buy
Preveal is a unique app that allows you to take a picture of your wall with a piece of paper on it, which you then use to see what certain size portraits will look like on a specific wall that you have. The site itself is a bit salesy for me, but what I love
