No More Smooches

Smooch Clients and Friends,

As of today October 26th Smooch is closed for business.

We have made the heartbreaking desicion to go our seperate ways and pursue photography on our own. Smooch was a combined effort and was "our baby" therefore neither one of us would dream of taking on the name ourselves.

We were hoping to wait until after the holidays to seperate, but due to personal reasons have deceided to go forth with it now.

If you have an appt in the future you will be contacted individually to make arrangements.
If you planned on making an appt we encourage you to come to either one of us. We will still be taking holiday appts seperatly and would love to see you.

If you have had a recent appt and have not completed your order you may still do so through either one of us. We hope to have all smooch orders closed out by Dec 13th though.

Smooch's life span was short, but we met some amazing people and took some amazing photographs. We shared your lives and memories, and made some awesome friends.

We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all your support and love.
You made smooch a success and we wish it could have worked out.
It is best for both of us to pursue our careers on our own and we hope that you will all understand.

We wish each other success in our futures...

and

Many Many Smooches to you.

Anthony:: smooched

Anthohy celebrated his first birthday last week, so of course we met up with him this past weekend to capture this special time!

He wasn't real sure of us and did not care for his picture being taken, but we worked our magic and got some adorable shots.

The whole family was there to celebrate with him, and we grabed a family shot in their "sunday best".

Happy Birthday little buddy, smooches.

Can't Get Enough Smooches!

Jaime and Tom just couldn't get enough of us! :)

ok, enough of us maybe, but not our photos!
So we spent a little while last weekend at Webster Arboretum to take some more great shots of these two love birds!
We had some fun and got to include the "kids" this time...their two beloved dogs :)
It was a beautiful day, just like their wedding day two weeks ago...

Hey, you can NEVER get enough SMOOCHES!!! :)

A Missouri Wedding:: Zach & Sarah Lawson

Last week my husband and I(Kelly) made a very long trip all the way to Missouri for a dear friends wedding. Bruce was in the Navy with Zach and when he called to say he was getting married we just knew we would be there. I was honored when they asked me to photograph their wedding and made it our gift to them.
We arrived friday night to 90 degree weather and beautiful blue skies..something that Rochester hasnt seen in quite sometime now...
There was nothing but laughter and good times had by all.
It was my first time attending a wedding AND photographing it...there came a time where I HAD to put the camera away so I could enjoy the night.
My wonderful husband Bruce was my second shooter that day. He wasnt quite sure of me when I handed him a camera and said "go", but he caught on and got some really awesome shots! It was a wonderful experience to work beside my husband and share such a loving event like this. thanks again babe for all your help and hard work!!!
The family and friends that gathered for this day were all so sweet and welcoming, we felt like we were a part of their very special bond.
Zach and Sarah are an amazing couple and we are so glad that they found each other and have their lives to share. We love you guys!

We had a blast on our trip to Missouri and this wonderful southern wedding!
enjoy some of the highlights of this amazing day!

Six Smooches for Kaden!

My nephew turned 6 years old last weekend!!!
It's amazing how time flies, I feel like it was yesterday that I got the phone call that he had arrived...as I sat extremely pregnant with my own first baby boy Bruce :)

They grow so quickly, and Im so proud of him and the boy that he is.
He is growing into a handsome little man and I loved smooching him for his birthday!

Happy Birthday Kaden James!!
