If you're looking to capture getting ready all the way to dancing away the night. This is the photography package for you! I have never liked the old traditional way; the stiff and stale posing approach that we're all too familiar with. Gone are the days of "let's go to a nice park and take some pictures". I believe in documenting the real, raw and authentic love - like when you first saw her on your first date and realized "love at first sight" is very much real, or when you told me that you both love donuts so I bought a box of donuts from one of the best shops in town as "prop" (they were delicious.) My photos are meant to freeze time for just a moment, allowing you to truly remember the feeling of being there. So let's create those authentic moments together. Let's tell your story, together.

A sunset engagement session at Hamlin Beach Park in summer is a picturesque and romantic experience that sets the stage for beautiful memories and breathtaking photographs. Hamlin Beach Park, located on the shores of Lake Ontario in upstate New York, offers a stunning backdrop of sandy beaches, rolling dunes, and crystal-clear waters, making it an ideal location for capturing the essence of love and nature. Here are some tips to make the most of your engagement session:
<ol role="list">
<li style="font-size: 18px;">Schedule the session: Plan your engagement session for a summer evening, preferably closer to sunset when the lighting is soft and golden. The "golden hour" before sunset provides a warm and flattering glow, creating a dreamy and romantic atmosphere.</li>
<li style="font-size: 18px;">Outfit choice: Since it's a beach location, consider dressing in light, breathable, and comfortable clothing. Flowy dresses for the bride-to-be and smart casual attire for the groom-to-be often work well. Choose complementary colors and avoid any outfits that might clash with the natural surroundings.</li>
<li style="font-size: 18px;">Props and accessories: Consider bringing some props or accessories that reflect your personalities or the theme of your relationship. Simple items like a picnic blanket, a bouquet of flowers, or a custom-made sign can add a touch of personalization to your photos.</li>
<li style="font-size: 18px;">Photographer selection: Look for a photographer experienced in capturing outdoor and sunset scenes. A skilled photographer will know how to use natural light to create beautiful and flattering images.</li>
<li style="font-size: 18px;">Explore the location: Before the session, visit Hamlin Beach Park with your photographer to scout out the best spots for pictures. Familiarize yourself with the surroundings and find areas that appeal to you both.</li>
<li style="font-size: 18px;">Be natural and relaxed: The best engagement photos capture genuine emotions and moments. Try to relax and be yourselves during the session. Your photographer will likely give you some guidance on posing, but don't be afraid to express your love and affection naturally.</li>
<li style="font-size: 18px;">Be prepared for weather changes: Summer evenings can sometimes be unpredictable, so be prepared for potential weather changes. Bring some extra clothing layers, sunscreen, and bug spray just in case.</li>
<li style="font-size: 18px;">Time management: Make sure you arrive at the park with enough time before sunset to take advantage of the golden hour and to get comfortable in front of the camera.</li>
<li style="font-size: 18px;">Have fun: Remember, this is a celebration of your love and relationship! Have fun, enjoy the moment, and let your joy shine through in the photographs.</li>
</ol>
With the beautiful sunset, serene beach views, and your love for each other, your engagement session at Hamlin Beach Park is sure to be a memorable and special experience!

Engagement Session at Hamlin Beach Park

Someone once asked me, 'What made you want to be a wedding photographer?' It's a question I've pondered over quite a bit, and I'd be lying if I didn't admit that initially, a part of it was about being able to pay my bills. After all, who doesn't enjoy the financial stability that comes with a steady job?
&nbsp;
However, my journey into photography started during a peculiar time. It was 2020, the world was in lockdown, and I was nursing a broken heart from a failed relationship. I needed a distraction, something to shift my focus and bring a sense of purpose back into my life. That's when I picked up a camera.
&nbsp;
Photography turned out to be more than just a distraction. Through the lens, I began to see love stories that I wished were a part of my past. Each click of the shutter was a moment captured in time, a precious memory forever etched in a photograph. It was as if I was relearning and rediscovering love itself.
&nbsp;
Being a wedding photographer is not just a job for me. It's a privilege. My couples often teach me lessons about love, patience, and forgiveness that no book can explain. For instance, I've learned that it's not cool to dropkick your future husband for coming late from a golf game with his buddies, even if you have every right to be mad. I've also learned that every moment, whether it's filled with joy or tears, is worth celebrating.
&nbsp;
In the end, the satisfaction I get when my couples are happy is an incomparable feeling. It makes every late night editing photos and every stressful wedding day worth it.
&nbsp;
As I share this personal journey, I know my partner is reading this too. She's one of my biggest supporters, and to her, I want to say, 'I'm not dwelling on the past or wishing for a different story. I'm happy where I am.'
&nbsp;
The world of wedding photography has gifted me with the chance to witness and capture love at its purest form. And for that, I am forever grateful. Thank you for allowing me to share my 'why' with you. And as they say at the end of a TED talk, 'Thank you for listening.'

The Heart Behind the Lens: Why I Chose to be a Wedding Photographer

We are so glad we had the chance to work with Gary for our engagement and wedding photography! As you can tell from his portfolio, he has a great eye and talent for capturing love stories and the energy of an event. Beyond his skill with the camera, we really appreciated his communication and organization throughout the wedding planning process. He was available for any questions and helped us plan and adjust our wedding day timeline to fit our vision. Gary made sure our wedding day ran smoothly with his flexibility and fun energy. Many of our guests commented on how much they enjoyed interacting with him. Overall, we had such a positive experience working with Gary and highly recommend him to any future couples!

Working with Gary was a dream come true! He was so sweet and brought incredible energy to our intimate mountain elopement. My partner and I can be quite shy in front of the camera, but Gary acted as a fly on the wall allowing our day to unfold naturally. When posing was necessary he kept the posing very simple as to not make us uncomfortable.
A few hours after our ceremony he even delivered us same day prints in a gorgeous wood box- a perfect keepsake!
I cannot say enough amazing things about Gary! I would definitely recommend having him for your wedding or elopement!!

Kyra & Josh

My husband and I are so thankful to have worked with Gary! We know that we made the right choice in choosing him to capture the most important day of our lives. Gary is creative, kind, passionate about his work, and professional - Gary surpassed our expectations, and we cannot recommend him more! He made us feel at ease throughout the day and was always concerned about how we were feeling and if we were remembering to eat (thanks Gary!) His photos are true masterpieces that we will treasure forever.We cannot wait for him to capture our future milestones!

Wow. Just wow. Our wedding wouldn’t have been as fantastic as it was if it weren’t for Gary’s fun, creative, and professional presence there with us throughout the day and evening. He knows exactly how to make you and your future spouse feel like the most important people in the world on the most important day of your lives. Between the two of us, we must have received at least two dozen comments from our guests about how great Gary was, and we couldn’t agree with them more! It’s not even a question: you NEED to hire Gary.

Sarah & Sam

Having Gary as a part of our wedding day was one of the best decisions I ever made. Not only did I feel like he truly captured our genuine personalities through the photos, but his attention to detail is unmatched. We’ve only gotten a sneak peek at our pictures so far and we are blown away.
He was so much fun to work with, and truly made us all feel so comfortable and happy.
Having someone who not only takes gorgeous photos but is also wonderful to work with makes me feel so lucky. If you’re looking for that person, Gary is definitely the one.

Sydnie & Mark

Where to even begin. Gary had a huge part in almost every aspect of our wedding, from where to have the ceremony at the venue to what I should do for my nails. He was super easy to communicate with and always responded in a timely manner. Every guest absolutely loved him and raved about him, about how nice he was, how funny and how he got everyone comfortable in front of the camera. All around our wedding would not have been as amazing as it was without him there. And then there are the pictures. Absolutely stunning. Made me cry looking at them at how perfectly he captured the day and my husband and I. Highly recommend for any and all events you need a photographer for.

Nice to meet you. I'm Gary!
