On Tuesday, Beth and I joined Mila and her parents for Mila’s third session in her “Baby’s First Year” portrait collection. You can see Mila’s earlier portraits at 4 months as well as her newborn session here and here. It looks like life is good at 8 1/2 months old… Typically when a parent wants…
In case you missed yesterday’s quick peek of Kate and Jason’s Cazenovia engagement session, be prepared for cuteness overload! When I first talked to Kate I immediately learned of the two most important people in her life. Jason her fiance and Trey her six year old son. Like I said, a whole lot of cute……

How many dogs do you know that can write their name in the sand? Introducing the great Gatsby… I first met Gatsby’s humans Brian and Amy while photographing Erin and Matt’s wedding. Aren’t they just the cutest… Soooo much love going on here… I’ve photographed a lot of dogs in my time, but Gatsby wins…

I so agree with Noelle: the basset photo is the best! it brings an instant smile … somehow it says JOY to me. Love it.
Your dog portraits are so fantastic!
Yay! DOGS!!! How fun is that session?! Great job capturing their personalities and connection with their humans too. That’s a challenging task!
Love the labs, but my favorite is the basset in search of other things! They are all great!!
You must have had been in heaven: all those dogs!
A few weeks back, Beth and I had a super fun day photographing some family portraits for Piper, Brian, Doc, and Cooper. This day was full of lots of doggy adventure… or should I say this adventure was full of lots of doggies! I’ll reveal more when I post the rest of the images. For…

Love, love this idea! Do you do boat themes? I’m hiring you this summer to do me and my kids! I have none….I wonder why? xoxo
You did a fantastic job capturing that baby’s spirit!
Several years ago, I read an interview with rocker girl Gwen Stefani. I don’t think she was pregnant yet, but she was talking about her marriage and plans for children in the near future. She asked “Really, what is more romantic than two people choosing to raise children together?” I know, I know. It can…

Romance and love are right. Great shot
Priceless. I LOVE this photo!
She is a cutie! I love this picture of her!
Don’t forget I’m a newbie at this blog challenge business, but hang in there with me. Today’s entry is a little different from the rest. Instead of making a heart, Beth my sister “found” a heart. Kind of like when you’re laying on a blanket looking up at a summer sky and you see a…

Great hair style Beth and you know I’m a sucker for an abstract heart found in nature.
Love is everywhere :)
Excellent heart – and great update on your studio manager <3
Have you ever thought about doing a portrait session in the winter? If not, I think you should! While the flowers of spring, grass of summer, and colors of autumn are all beautiful, I have to say I do love me a wintry scene. With this in mind, I’m happy to share with you a…

I’ve been living in Central New York for about two years now. Yesterday, however, was the first time I drove to Ithaca; and already, I can’t wait to go back. The drive was filled with amazing rural landscapes, which I hope to photograph in the springtime, if not sooner. I didn’t have time {to stop…

“Whose kids are these??!!!!”
If you can just hold still we’ll have PIZZA for DINNER!!
“I scream, you scream, we all scream for ICE CREAM!”
“You just won an all expenses paid vacation to Disney World!”
I “hear” ‘Mom, Mom, Mom’ … ‘Dad, Dad, Dad …’
Maybe that’s just from my own personal experience! :)
I’ve been in business for myself for about fifteen years… give or take. Throughout all of those years, I’ve been the girl wearing ALL of the hats… photographer (that is my favorite one), marketer, accountant, errand girl, editor, etc. If you have ever been in business for yourself, you know there are A LOT of…

The pictures are wonderful. My cousin Beth looks just like she did 20 years ago.
Good to meet you in New Orleans – wasn’t that city amazing? I’ll be in touch.
Nice shots and great team! Congrats to you both!!!
ABP, Chicago
Thanks for the awesome introduction :) . I am so excited to be working with you! You have amazing skills as a photographer and with me working on some of the other things, you’ll be able to concentrate on the things you’re best at! Like you always say, “Two Pattersons are better than one!” (Of course usually we’re just trying to open the ketchup bottle).
It looks like you guys will make a great team!
I had a great family portrait session with Jeff and his beautiful daughters Jordan and Sara. You may remember Sara from her senior portrait session! After the shoot today, we were talking on the front porch saying our goodbyes, as they were all getting ready to head home. At some point I glance over and…

Megan and Lauren’s mom (the ever so charming Joanne), first contacted me to schedule Lauren’s senior portrait. Before that, however, we had a secret portrait session of the two girls, as a birthday surprise for their dad. So now that Tom has received his birthday presents, I’m delighted to share some of my favorites. Happy…
