    Maryna + Tyler

    Oct 06 2022

    Their day finally came!!  Maryna and Tyler’s wedding day has been planned for a couple of years due to Covid and we just had their Engagement session (below) excitedly talking about their Wedding day coming up and before we knew it, their day had come! They were married at the stunning LaLuna in downtown Rochester, with their closest friends and family on a beautiful September day.

     

    Before their ceremony we all met at a little section of High Falls for Tyler’s first look of Maryna. The bridal party saw her first then Tyler had to take a deep breath to hold himself up as he turned around to see his beautiful Bride.

    After giving them a few minutes to greet each other and hug, we were lucky enough to have some shade where we needed it so we jumped right into bridal party photos and we had to capture the beautiful bouquets from Green Gables Florist!

    Once bridal party was done, we jumped right into bridal portraits between Maryna and Tyler! (This is always my favorite part of the day!) Their love for one another is easily captured and we had the best time! The lighting was perfect but it was hot so I wanted to make sure I was keeping them comfortable in the shade as much as possible. Before we knew it, it was time for their ceremony!

    Their guests started to arrive at LaLuna and the sun was shining! It was a beautiful setting. The ceremony started and Maryna made her way down the aisle to Tyler. Their vows were said and they had their kiss! Finally they were married! So much waiting led to this day and I couldn’t be happier for them!!

    The rest of their day was a dream and I couldn’t run right home to start editing their gallery! Here are a few of our favorite images from their day!

    Brian + Riane

    Sep 23 2021

    Riane’s Maid of Honor had mentioned that she should look at my website last September for wedding photography. When she contacted me and told me all about the details of their day, I knew their time line was perfect for photographs in/around Rochester and I was ESTATIC when they booked!

    When I arrived to Riane’s parent’s house the morning of their wedding, I saw the bridemaid’s in their stunning burnt orange dresses getting ready then Riane as she walked down the stairs in her robe, about to get dressed. She looked beautiful and I couldn’t wait to see her in her wedding dress! We took a few minutes to capture everyone getting their finishing touches wrapped up, Riane in her dress and headed out to have a first look with her Dad. There wasn’t a dry eye in the house. It was a very touching moment for all.

    We then headed off to St Monica in Rochester for the ceremony. It is a B-E-A-UTIFUL church with lots of natural light inside and out. The music began to play and one by one each of the bridemaid’s made their way down the aisle until it was Riane and her Dad’s turn. Everyone turned to look as they made their way down the aisle and Brian choked back tears and just looked her and gleamed. They met at the alter and Riane’s Dad handed her hand to Brian as they made their way to Father Ray. They had an amazing ceremony as their friends and family watched on and also vowed to be a part of the strength in their marriage.

    After they kissed, they walked back down the aisle as husband and wife and shared another kiss before heading out of the church to start family formal photographs. After family formals were done, we switched gears to Bridal portraits between husband and wife and I am IN LOVE with how they came out!

    We let the family go on ahead to the reception as we finished our portraits at the church and then made our way to High Falls for some bridal party fun! Those burnt orange dresses paired next to the navy blue suits were a perfect blend! Those beautiful bouquets are just stunning and were done by the very talented Jodi Rowcliffe!

    We finished up the bridal party photographs and made our way to Highland Park for a quick shoot with just Riane and Brian before making our way to Max of Eastman Place in Rochester where we finished out portraits in the STUNNING twinkle light courtyard! These were some of my absolute favorites from their day!

    Because of the ample time Riane and Brian left us for photography, we were able to sneak in for some details shots of the reception hall before anyone came in to sit. Before introductions, Riane asked if we minded following them to their favorite bar, Salingers, just a block away so they could have a quick drink and I knew we would be able to get a few good shots of them getting to take it easy for a few moments before the rest of the night continued!

    We left the wedding party and walked back to Max of Eastman Place to get ready for introductions and dances! Once the introductions were done, we got to witness (and capture) dances between Riane and her Dad, then Brian and his beautiful mother. THERE. WERE. SO. MANY. TEARS! And DJ Keyyo from Roc The Party did an amazing job!

    We finished up dances and started dinner where we had an amazing meal and went outside to give the wedding rings their proper photoshoot before our time was complete with this beautiful couple, and of course I found the twinkle lights!

    I couldn’t wait to come home to edit my favorites from their day! The weather, the locations, the colors, the love… it was all perfect. We are so thankful we were trusted to capture their day. Congratulations Brian and Riane! It was our absolute pleasure to document your stunning wedding day!!
