Maya and Brandon’s wedding at Silver Queen Farm, in Trumansburg, New York was brimming with love and tons of laughter. One of the most special touches was the maid of honor’s contribution of flowers, including personals, centerpieces, arbor and the sweetheart table. Most of the ingredients were foraged locally in the Finger Lakes by her, including pears, grapes and even deer antlers, for a truly unique and beautiful sweetheart table.

Taughannock Falls and Cayuga Lake made the most perfect backdrop for Sarah & Jason’s lovely, intimate summer wedding. The bride and groom- also new parents- celebrated with their sweet eight month old daughter and their most cherished people.

This was such an energetic and nostalgic engagement session on Campus at Cornell University. Jenna & Sam met and studied there. For their portrait session, there was gorgeous summer weather, champagne, and a special visit to the classroom where they first met.

Sophia & Greg had a beautiful wedding in The Finger Lakes, full of tradition and personal meaning. Before the ceremony, we hiked a lush forest in a nature reserve near their home, where Sophia & Greg climbed the tree they had climbed on their first date. The couple foraged most of the ingredients for their wedding feast, and sourced the others from their friends. Sophia’s mother hand painted each menu and made the cake, and her aunt led them through a traditional Ukrainian hand binding ritual, just prior to the ceremony. Sophia wore a 1930’s Ukrainian Sorochka dress made from linen and embroidered with hemp floss that was dyed with oak. She is going to wear it for life’s future celebrations and embroider those life events into it. Flowers for the wedding, including the traditional wreath of flowers worn by the bride, were made by local florist, Plenty of Posies.
