PHOTOGRAPHY
THAT GOES WITH THE FLOW AND CAPTURES YOUR GLOW
VOTED one of Lake Placid New York's BEST WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHERS

Hi!

I'M CASS

I'M NOT REALLY INTO TRADITIONAL, GENERIC PHOTOS.  AND MY GUESS IS THAT YOU AREN'T EITHER.

You know when you're so caught up in what you're doing that you forget anyone's watching?

That's where I live. That's where your love story is.


HERE'S WHAT I'VE LEARNED ABOUT MYSELF AFTER OVER 15 YEARS AS A WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER :


WHAT I'M NOT: A Photographer Showing up with a bunch of equipment bossing you around.

WHAT I AM: Your partner in crime who notices everything.


I'm watching for the way you look at each other when you think no one's paying attention.

I'm catching the nervous laugh, then the moment you actually relax.

I am seeking real emotion at every spectrum, joy, fear, love, nerves. ALL OF IT. 


After all these years as a Lake Placid Wedding Photographer in the Adirondacks, I've watched it happen over and over. Couples who dread getting their photo taken end up with sore cheeks from laughing. Sometimes we cry together. Sometimes we talk about deep, real life stuff that has nothing to do with photos. And they always come out of this experience actually enjoying being photographed. 

Because the photos your kids will treasure?

They're not the perfect, posed ones. They're the ones where they can see who you really were together.

 

WHAT IF I TOLD YOU :

✓ You could actually enjoy getting your photo taken

✓ You might even forget there's a camera there

✓ You could end up saying "this is the best photo of us ever"

How did we get the photo?

About a half an hour before my bride was fully ready I had caught up with Mom to let her know to stay close. Once my bride was ready, I told her to take 5 minutes to herself and then come down stairs. During this time I went down and told mom to come to the bottom of the stairway area because her daughter would be coming down soon. ---- about 2 minutes later pure emotions!
