I love that I spend so much of my session time in the summers with families at the Sagamore Resort on the shores of Lake George, NY. I am lucky enough to call Bolton Landing my hometown and getting to photograph new generations of families who will grow up loving this area as much as […]

Josnelly and her little family met me in downtown Glens Falls on a beautiful spring day. We walked in the sunshine, hung out at Glens Falls City Park and then settled on a few beautiful locations that show the urban beauty of our little city. This little man was so curious about everything around him. […]

Amanda visited our studio in the heart of Glens Falls, The Shirt Factory for her motherhood portrait session. She really wanted to capture the time she had with her little one by capturing some pure and beautiful images of breastfeeding. I think these images will be cherished for years to come! www.ymphotography.com | YM Photography […]

When I get the opportunity to photograph a family in my hometown, Bolton Landing, I always feel so honored. Add in that this family of amazing business owners (Cate of Cate’s Italian Garden (psst… check out their website for some of my food photography) and Ed of The Chateau on the Lake) and my teens’ favorite teacher and we have the making of an amazing family session.

I have lots of families that have been with me since I started my business. This one just happens to have been with me for as long as I can remember since we were neighbors and I graduated high school with one of the daughters. It’s always a delight when I can capture a family I love. It’s even better when I can capture them during a family reunion over the holidays. Large family portraits are some of my favorites for the opportunity to capture multiple generations and getting to do them in my hometown of Bolton Landing on Lake George makes it even better!

Todd contacted me about photographing his family reunion at his Grandparent’s vacation house on Lake George. He wanted to make sure to capture everyone while he was home on leave from the Army. We started the session at Crandall Park in Glens Falls with his siblings and his father. Then we headed to the lake […]

I got to photograph these two little beauties (and the rest of their family)  in their Saratoga Springs home.  They laughed, singed, made me some tea and stole my heart. www.ymphotography.com | YM Photography | Saratoga Springs, NY Family Portrait Photographer

The Tyler family stopped by for our nautical themed mini portrait sessions in Lake George, NY. While we couldn’t get on the beach, we chose a spot nearby for some classic family portraits. Why was mom laughing above? Because this little one did not want Daddy kissing Mommy! So cute! www.ymphotography.com | YM Photography | […]

Here’s a look at my favorite session from this year’s Mommy & Me minis at Burlap and Beams Wedding Barn in Athol, NY! Ashleigh and her little ones stopped by this beautiful venue and seriously stole the show! I love how this family coordinated their outfits! This is outfit planning done in a serious way. […]
