Rochester NY Baby Photographer | This little one? There are so many things to say. She was perfect at her newborn session, and through her whole first year I have honestly adored photographing her. She is sweet, inquisitive, full of wonder for the world and all the things in it. We did a few different […]

Rochester, NY Beach Photographer | This family? Pure perfection. A good mix of silly and sweet and cuddly and playful and chaotic energy. Because that’s the best kind of family. A family full of love and bursting hearts filled with joy. I think they can appreciate the small moments more than many people I know […]

Rochester, NY Newborn Photographer | This family has been coming to me ever since their oldest was a newborn, and we have done such fun sessions for them. Some themed pictures, some family pictures, some milestone pictures. Their first daughter was completely chill and smiley through her entire first year–cool, calm and collected. Apparently they […]

Rochester, NY Proud Big Sister | This big sister was one of my favorites that I’ve ever had. She was so easy going and loving and was totally digging her new role as big sister. I love the simplicity of all the creams that we chose to use. Taking away the distraction of noisy clothes […]

Rochester Newborn Photography | Bethany Chase Photography I love when families grow and I get the honor of photographing all the wee ones in the family during their first days. Less than two years ago, I photographed this guy’s big brother. And he came along to have some pictures taken with his new baby brother–let […]

Rochester, NY Newborn Photographer | I have never had a session quite like this one before. This little guy’s parents were both super experienced with newborns. His momma is a nurse in the newborn wing, and his daddy is a NICU nurse! I couldn’t believe it . . . I told them to come back […]

I love books. I literally could go to the library every day and be inspired just the same as the day before. It won’t ever get old to me. Shelves and shelves of books with their perfect plastic book covers–the smell of printed paper. The worlds of every author and illustrator’s brains. My heart is […]

Family Photography Session | Rochester, NY This beautiful Momma is expecting TWINS in February. They planned their photo shoot before finding out, so it was a fun celebration of this little family of three before their lives change drastically in a few months!  This little man is always full of energy and ready for an […]
