Dan and Grace’s wedding at The Ballroom at Carey Lake was the perfect mix of romance, laughter, and elegance. From their SUNY Oneonta love story to saying “I do” surrounded by family and friends in Macedon, NY, every moment was full of joy. As a Rochester wedding photographer, I loved capturing the heartfelt details, stunning lakeside portraits, and all the fun that made their day unforgettable.

This beautiful backyard wedding in Scio, NY was the perfect showcase of small-town charm and heartfelt celebration. As a Scio, NY wedding photographer, I was instantly inspired by the rolling hills, rustic countryside views, and the intimate setting the couple created right in their own backyard. The ceremony took place beneath a canopy of trees, with family and friends gathered close, surrounded by the soft summer breeze and golden light. Every detail—from the handcrafted décor to the twinkle lights strung above the reception tables—reflected the couple’s personal style and deep connection to their roots in Western New York. Capturing these candid moments, from tearful vows to joyful dancing under the stars, was a reminder that the most memorable weddings are the ones filled with genuine love, laughter, and the beauty of home.

As the sun dipped below the horizon, painting the sky in hues of gold and rose, we stepped out onto the grounds of The Grand View of Ellington for the most breathtaking portraits of the day. With the water glistening behind them and soft light wrapping around them like a warm embrace, these two shared quiet, heartfelt moments that perfectly captured the magic of their love. There’s something timeless about a sunset, and this one felt like it was made just for them.

Ideal inspiration for couples dreaming of a luxury wedding with vintage flair.
