We had gone back and forth a few times about which day and time to shoot because the weather was cold all week. Finally it got sunny and wArm and we met last Saturday for engagement session. Aroma Café was a great spot for morning get-together! As always we came early and then Nick showed up but the most interesting part of this- he walked towards us alone…… When we asked where Susan was, he explained that her dress was damaged and she was looking for some thing other in her clothes. Susan came 5 min latter and I was so glad, she wasn’t upset too much about this nuisance and looked so beautiful and cheerful. Actually, I would like to say couple words about how they met. It was like in a movie…very designing story !
They both came to the bar for date…He with another girl and she - with other guy, going on a blind date. There was something “hooligany” in Nick’s mood that day, and he decided to go ahead and, actually interrupt Susan’s blind date by ending his date, following her and than asking her to step aside and possibly giving him her phone number. How daring is that? Well, it payed off, since they are getting married now, and it is not even 2 years since that historic night!
Nick and Susan are just so sweet together!!! Here are a few of my favorite shots from the day:

Thank you, Jodi!
Last week I had the pleasure of taking some portraits of little Masha. She was so sweet at letting me run around her and take pictures. This is such a great age to capture!

Oh, my god, how cute!
It is amazing to see the features of both mother and father in one little person! Photos are so candid, any of them can become a post card. :)

I am floored by some of the details photos, like the hand reflection in the water, green door portrait, glass reflection with hands, Buffalo scape, jeans portrait, especially laying on the bench, the heart-shaped hands, grass background for holding hands, the black and white ring show-off! Makes me want to continue our rain-interrupted session with so many more ideas and triple energy!
I wrote in my previous post that I am so blessed meeting great people in my life, so these guys are from this list…
Elena and Andrei are the main heroes of my last photo shoot.
Usually people don’t believe in such stories, but I do… Elena and Andrei went to the same University in Minsk (Belarus) but their LOVE story starts when they met each other here, in Buffalo, NY.I can say it is a fact, but some times we need to fly across the ocean to find our love…
Life is full of surprises!
We became close friends from the moment we met each other. Elena is very creative and energetic person. She always inspires me to try something new and she provides so much help in my photography business.
Elena, just being around people like you makes me feel lucky, I am thankful for this!
I think these photographs highlighting their love and personality better then any words:
