Hi! I'm Laura!

I’m a wedding and brand photographer for creative and adventurous hearts and and your resident work-life balance aficionado. I’m so glad you’re here!
My favorite thing in life is sitting out by my fire-pit with a glass of Riesling and a s’more in hand with friends and family surrounding me. I'm rarely ever found without a warm blanket wrapped around me, and If my wallet didn't frown upon it, I’d probably buy everything in Anthropologie Home and Free People.

She 14. He was 16. Fourteen years old when they met and dedicated themselves to spending the rest of their lives together (although I hardly imagine they knew this then.)  It was on a camping trip in New York; Cassandra went up with her family and Trevor went up with friends. After spending days together hiking, quading, spending time sharing stories and sitting around the fire, they quickly became best friends. Lucky for them, they had incredible parents who drove them everywhere for their dates in their teenage years. Fast forward to 10 years later and Cassandra and Trevor are saying I do to forever in September 2016 at their Lodges at Cresthaven Wedding in Lake George, NY. I can’t even begin to describe how excited I am for this wedding!!
Cassandra and Trevor define fun-loving, adventurous, outdoorsy couples in love and this is everything I hope for when I photograph couples. I wish for laughter, and joy, engagement sessions outdoors, and down-to-earth brides with big hearts for the people in their lives.  This is Cassandra and Trevor to a T! We were outstandingly lucky to have a beautiful fall engagement session in the Shawagunk Mountain Range in Pine Bush, NY. Their love for being outdoors makes my heart so happy as this is how I love spending my time!  When they announced their Lodges at Cresthaven wedding in Lake George, I immediately commented that I was a photographer willing to travel. I LOVE Lake George, and I had been friends on Facebook with Cassandra for quite a while and was completely addicted to her positive attitude. It seemed like the perfect match. She has an unbelievable heart for serving and loving others and I find myself always looking forward to hearing from her. Then comes Trevor. Trevor is the complete compliment to Cassandra’s joyful spirit. He is always smiling (as is Cassandra) and loves her deeply, and quietly. They are, indeed, a perfect match, and I am just bursting with joy that I get to document their love.
Trevor followed us up to Sam’s Point on his motorcycle so it was only necessary to get a couple shots with it! These are some of my favorites of the whole day!

We then hiked about 20 minutes up to the cliffs at Sam’s Point to discover the most spectacular of views that were truly breathtaking as the leaves were beginning to change. We laughed, until the sun slowly crept behind the mountains leaving us with the most beautiful golden light.

I am so honored, that Cassandra and Trevor have trusted me with these beautifully important memories.

I am so excited to see your love continue to grow and unfold and am thrilled I get to be there to document it next September! Cheers to you!
