Nick + Shylo chose to celebrate their wedding day at their home in Canandaigua, NY.
No huge guest list.
No need to make it complicated.
Just their closest friends and family, an incredible setting, an intimate dinner, and two people making a promise to spend the rest of their lives together. 💍
And honestly?
It fit them perfectly.
The quiet moments.
The way they looked at each other.
The laughter.
The view.
The people surrounding them.
Everything about this day felt personal.
Because sometimes the best weddings aren't about how many people are there…
They're about having the right people there. ❤️
And these two?
Absolutely perfect for each other.
Congratulations, Mr. & Mrs. Violas! 🥂

Sometimes the perfect wedding venue isn't a ballroom, a barn, or some elaborate destination.

Sometimes it's simply home.

Nick and Shylo celebrated their big day at their home in Canandaigua, NY, surrounded by the friends and family who mean the most to them. It was small, intimate, personal—and absolutely perfect for these two.

From the anticipation before the ceremony, to that first kiss as husband and wife, to an intimate dinner overlooking the beautiful Canandaigua scenery, their entire day felt like them.

And after spending the day with Nick and Shylo, one thing was pretty easy to see:

They are absolutely perfect for each other. ❤️

There's something special about a wedding that strips away all the extras and brings everything back to what the day is really about—two people choosing each other, surrounded by the people they love most.

Nick & Shylo, thank you for welcoming me into your home and trusting TAJ Photography to capture such an important chapter of your story.

Congratulations, Mr. & Mrs. Violas! 🥂

when these two stood together yesterday and became husband and wife, those vows hit a little differently. ❤️

And then we took them back to the exact spot where Jake proposed on their family's property in Glenwood, NY.

Same place.

Same two people.

A whole lot of life lived in between.

Except this time…

they walked away husband & wife. 💍

“Some couples say ‘through sickness and in health’ for the first time at the altar. Some have already proven it long before they get there.”

For Jake and Emily, those words aren't just part of their vows. They're part of their story.

Before yesterday ever arrived, life had already thrown plenty at these two. Jake broke his back. There were setbacks, hard days, unexpected turns and more than a few moments that tested them.

And through all of it, Emily stayed right by his side.

So yesterday wasn't simply about promising to be there for one another someday.

It was about celebrating a promise they've already been living.

And there couldn't have been a more fitting place to do it than their family's property in Glenwood, NY. We even headed back out to the exact place where Jake proposed to Emily — except this time, they returned as husband and wife. ❤️

There is something pretty incredible about photographing two people in the same place where one chapter began, knowing everything they've been through together to reach this one.

Yesterday was about family, love, resilience, a whole lot of laughter, and two people who already know exactly what it means to choose each other when life doesn't go according to plan.

Jake & Emily — you made it. You’re married. 🥂

And if these are only the sneak peeks… just wait. 📸

Jackson’s senior session took us to the Ontario County Pathways in Phelps, NY this morning and he absolutely crushed it. 🎓🔥
We got the serious senior shots.
We broke out The Sandlot jerseys. ⚾
Mom jumped in.
Phil joined the crew.
And then came the REAL star of the session…
LANIE LOO. 🐶😂
At that point, Jackson’s senior session officially became a family session — and I’m here for it.
Because senior year is about Jackson and the huge chapter ahead of him, but someday these pictures with Mom, Phil and Lanie Loo might mean just as much as the senior portraits themselves.
Take the pictures.
Especially when the dog comes along. 🐾❤️

What started as Jackson’s senior session this morning quickly turned into a family affair — and I wouldn’t have had it any other way. 😂

We spent the morning exploring the Ontario County Pathways in Phelps, NY, and Jackson absolutely crushed it. Different looks, some incredible scenery, and a guy who made being in front of the camera look way easier than he probably expected.

Then Mom jumped in.

Then Phil joined the fun.

And there was absolutely NO WAY Lanie Loo was going to let everyone else have all the attention. 🐾😂

Before we knew it, a senior session had turned into a chance to capture this whole crew together.

And that’s what I love about sessions like this. Senior pictures are about celebrating Jackson and everything that lies ahead, but they’re also about this moment in time — the people beside him, the memories they’ve already made, and the family cheering him on as he heads into his next chapter.

So yes… we got the senior pictures.

But we also got Mom & Jackson. ❤️
We got Phil.
We got some laughs.
We got the whole family.

And most importantly…

Lanie Loo got her moment. 🐶📸

Here’s a little sneak peek from this morning!

“I’m going to marry him.” 🤍
And yesterday at The Paxton in Omaha…
Samantha proved herself right. 💍
Samantha + Jenson’s wedding day was everything.
An incredible group of friends and family.
A wedding party that understood the assignment. 😂
Downtown Omaha as our playground.
And two people who make being in love look pretty effortless.
Samantha knew when she met him.
Yesterday she got to say:
“I married him.” 🤍
Congratulations, Samantha + Jenson!

“She knew.”

From the first time Samantha met Jenson, she knew she was going to marry him.

And apparently, she wasn’t exactly quiet about it. 😂🤍

Yesterday, all of those friends and family who had heard her say it, watched their story unfold, and knew how much these two belonged together finally got to be there when Samantha proved herself right.

She married him. 💍

When Samantha and Jenson asked me to come to Omaha to photograph their wedding at The Paxton, I was excited. After spending the day with these two and the people who love them, I completely understand why this day meant so much.

From getting ready inside the Paxton, to one seriously fun wedding party, to taking over the streets of downtown Omaha for portraits, there was no shortage of moments to capture.

But some of my favorites are the quiet ones between Samantha and Jenson—the looks, the smiles, the way they naturally fall into each other when everything else around them disappears.

Samantha knew from the beginning.

Yesterday, everyone else got to watch that “I’m going to marry him” become “I married him.” 🤍

Congratulations, Samantha & Jenson! Thank you for bringing TAJ Photography to Omaha and trusting me to tell this part of your story.

What a day! Milwaukee was our backdrop, and Violette absolutely owned every minute of it. 💜👑
From touring downtown Milwaukee and the Deer District, to capturing these incredible portraits in her stunning purple gown, the day was filled with laughter, family, friends, and memories that will last a lifetime.
And then we headed back to Clybourn to celebrate with the people who mean the most. 🎉💃🏽
A beautiful young woman. An amazing family. An unforgettable celebration.
Happy Quinceañera, Violette! 💜👑

Today was all about Violette! 💜

We started the day touring downtown Milwaukee and the Deer District, taking in the city and creating some amazing portraits along the way. And when Violette stepped out in that incredible purple gown and crown… it was time to let the camera do the talking. 👑✨

From portraits with her court to those beautiful individual moments, every location gave us something different—and Violette absolutely rocked them all.

But the best part of the day wasn't just the photos.

After exploring Milwaukee, we headed back to Clybourn to celebrate with her friends and family. There was laughter, dancing, celebration, and the kind of moments that make a quinceañera so special.

Today wasn't just about celebrating a birthday.

It was about celebrating Violette, her family, her culture, her friendships, and this incredible milestone in her life.

💜 Happy Quinceañera, Violette! 💜

Thank you to the family for allowing TAJ Photography to be part of such a special day. It was an absolute pleasure capturing these memories, and I hope these photographs bring you back to this day for many years to come.
