On A Path

I just had to take a minute to give a shout out to one of my biggest inspirations, Tomas Flint. Tom is constantly praised by grateful brides and grooms for his commitment to unique and flawless images and bringing amazing energy to their wedding day. Their family and friends never miss an opportunity to express their gratitude for tireless efforts from the beginning of the day to the last dance of the night. Working alongside him, I have been fortunate to witness and be motivated by his passion for his work. Rochester magazine, the Insider, wasn't going to miss an opportunity to highlight such an incredible talent either. They've featured him in their most recent issue.

With each step, great things keep happening. He's on a path, and he's unstoppable!
So proud of you Tom!

Destination: Geneva On The Lake

Nicole & Mike
With their adorable little Benjamin and a few cherished friends and family, Nicole and Mike had a sweetly intimate wedding at the lovely Geneva On The Lake Resort. From the beginning it was clear that Mike and Nicole share a bond with each other that extends across the people they love most. As their handful of friends and family looked on, Mike and Nicole spoke the vows they had written for each other. The beauty of their words and the love they share brought everyone to tears. Their two lives rightfully and perfectly joined marking a 'coming together' of everyone. Since it was such a small gathering Tom and I were immediately welcomed into their family. We strolled the gardens, raised our glasses during their toast on the boat ride on Seneca Lake, and shared their candlelight dinner. Most importantly, I got to witness two people, with their loved ones, celebrating the relationships that mean the most to them. Nicole and her sister shared a dance while their mother held little Benjamin. Mikes best friend gave a speech that brought everyone to tears, again. Over an elegant and delicious dinner, everyone laughed and shared stories of their long, colorful histories together. Everyone should be so lucky to have a tight group of friends and family in which love circles all around. I feel grateful just to have been near it.

Many thanks the super-fired-up Tomas Flint for bringing me along, continually inspiring me, and catching this sweet shot of me on the train tracks that day.
