This is day three of our blog week and I thought it would be fun to share a little on us! We are Mandy and Gregg a husband and wife team! Even though we are working crazy hours right now we still and will always feel we have the coolest job on the planet! One of my favorite aspects is being able to photograph a couple’s wedding…share those amazing memories and then see them back in a year(s) with a new addition to the family being a new baby or even a pet! We become lifetime photographers to these new families…how cool is that?!? Gregg’s favorite part is the food at weddings…haha! Just kidding….he is alongside me at weddings shooting and he also handles the front end of our portrait studio business. Most importantly he takes care of my crazy schedule with scheduling portrait sessions and weddings!
We post often (in the winter months) about Miami. It’s really our home away from home and our favorite place! We thank God everyday that we’ve been blessed with the resources to travel there throughout those cold New York months to document some beautiful weddings in sunny South Florida! Ahhhhh Sun! Miami is such a spicy city, full of culture, color and of course beaches!
Last time we were there we brought a tripod with us to the beach (as we needed new facebook profile pictures) and set up. Ummmm it’s really not as easy at it looks! Getting the camera set, pushing the button then flat out sprinting to get in a loving, cutie pose was a lot of work! HAHA! …but worth it! It was more for fun, but we actually got some cute photos!
One other thing that we are amazed by every time we go there are the peacocks!!! Peacocks roam around the Grove like they own the place ….kind of like deer in our neighborhood here in Rochester during the summer months.
Hope you enjoyed our little “about us” day on the blog!
HAHA! Of course Gregg had to get in one!! 
Mmmmmmm my new love…frozen lemonade!
Our one year baby packages start at newborn (7-14 days old) and cover other milestone dates like 6-months and the baby’s 1st birthday. Meeting these new families is absolutely one of my favorite experiences in the world! I get to see these ittly bitty babies at just a few days old and from there (depending on the package) I get to experience their amazing changes either at two or four more sessions! In this case I was able to see adorable Camden at newborn, 6 months and one year! Canden was perfect for every shoot and I was so amazed to see how much he has grown between each session. I’m going to be sad to see him go and hope he comes in to visit at his 2nd birthday!
It’s portrait week here on the Images Unveiled Blog!! Every week I get to meet many, many new families, newborns, toddlers, seniors and furry four legged friends! Sometimes I feel that I don’t blog on them enough!! For all of our amazing supporters out there please keep in mind that just because I don’t get a chance to blog on your session doesn’t mean that I don’t love the pictures!! There are so many from every session that I could blog! Unfortunately I usually only have time to blog once or twice a week at most so it would be impossible to blog on every shoot I do! I wish I could share more as there are so many fun images from all of my shoots each and every week!
Here are two that are no strangers to our studio! Krista and Tommy…and now with their adorable pup Laila! I know I will be seeing them for years to come!
Over a year ago we get a very excited email from Shari a potential wedding! She expressed how much she loved our work and wanted more than anything for us to capture her day! …..but the sad news came that we were booked for her wedding date. That didn’t stop her….her venue had ONE other date that summer open …and yes we were booked for that date as well. As a photographer, you want nothing more in the world for couples to love and appreciate your work, which Shari and Jared did! They ended up hiring another photographer. 
BUT Shari and I became quick Facebook friends and have kept in touch over the past year. ….and to my suprise and excitement I got a call “Mandy!! At our wedding we had a timing issue and didn’t get all the pictures we wanted….sooooooo we want to do a “Day-After-Session….plus its a great excuse to work with you ;)!!” YAY! We traveled to Fort Drum where we set up the shoot at this amazing mansion on the grounds of the military base ….and she pulled out all the stops! Dress, hair,make-up, tux, bouquet, and even an amazing classic Bentley as a added plus! We did battle some crazy bugs towards sunset, but this session is one that I will never forget!
Shari & Jared: Gregg and I left that night knowing that not only did we get adorable pictures, but we gained new friends! We loved every second we spent with you two and I CAN’T wait to be able to photograph any new additions to the family (when that times comes!) ;)
