Rochester Wedding Photojournalism | Jackie & Jason : The Details

Where do I start? I can’t say enough about Jackie and Jason. They are a wonderful couple with a sweet, beautiful daughter that they absolutely adore. They surround themselves with loving, fun and thoughtful people. The details of the wedding were truly unique and awesome. However, what really made this wedding special were the family and friends sharing in the beginning of the rest of their lives together.

Despite the pouring rain, Bella was determined to get me out of the house to play with her today.

Rochester NY Local Musicians | Brass Taxi

If you have not seen Brass Taxi this summer you are missing out! The energy and funk that they bring is kickass!

Dave and I headed over to the Fireman’s Field a couple weeks ago to hear some amazing music and shoot some photos.  The band did not disappoint, they sounded fantastic and the fans were LOVING it. I even got to dance with one of their littlest fans, aka Diva Baby, and I had the best time dancing like no one was watching. Everyone should do that once in a while, it really is good for the soul.

Here is the one and only Karen Palotto, rockin’ the pink tambourine. She has the voice of a goddess and she is freaking gorgeous. She is always a source of inspiration. I love her to pieces!
