FALL’ing for Grace

Lincoln, Lazarus, Stacey & Marc

Well time sure does fly by!
Way back in 2010 I shot Stacey & Marc’s Wedding, and 8 years later there are now FOUR in the family as we spent what started out as a rainy Saturday morning together at Elmira College. We had a whole lot of fun and captured some Really Nice shots for one of my all time favorite wedding couples, plus I got to know Little Lincoln….who is definitely QUITE a Character in his own right!!

Time for a “Little Lovin'”

I had a very uncommon weekday wedding yesterday on Monday, up at the beautiful Heron Hill Winery. Add this one to my growing list of “Firsts” as our Groom Nate was a very cool “Little Person”. I met Nate & Wendy in Binghamton last month was was immediately amazed at this guys Overgrown Personality and Sense of Humor! Following the ceremony, we had a lot of fun shooting some fun stuff down in the vineyard and also in the picturesque village square of Hammondsport, NY, and the weather Gods even spared us, as they held off the down pouring torrents of rain until we got back to Heron Hill and were enjoying our dinner under the cover of their huge tent!

Fontainebleau Dreams

I shot Emilie & Mikes Wedding there 14 long years ago in 2003, and we re-connected once again while they were in the area  vacationing, this time with two little additions…. Lyla & Ruby!

Leave It To Beaver!

While walking Seneca over the past half year we often stroll the grounds of the Horseheads Fire Department, out in the back lot near the remains of the old Chemung Canal. During the Summer I noticed this one huge old tree by the Canal, and that all the bark at its base was being scraped or scratched off all the way around. I hadn’t paid much attention to it since……that is until yesterday! Man Oh Man…. have Bucky Beaver & His Buddies Been Busy over the Holidays!!! I am absolutely amazed at how much of the base of this tree has been chewed down, to the point soon where this massive tree is going to fall down, either into the Canal, or possibly onto the Fire Department Storage Barn that is located very close to this tree. And what’s really cool is that these chips that cover the ground are HUGE, nothing like sawdust, but more so the size of large potato chips! On the Close Up, you can actually see the imprint of the Little Beaver Teeth….Pretty Amazing!

Our Attention is….Riveted

I always love the look of this old Railroad Bridge, and what’s cool too is knowing that my Grand Dad worked for the very same D. L. & W. Railroad that built & used this bridge.
Soft & Pretty + Old, Iron & Rusty = Always a Winner!
