Jared and I spent some of the past week in up-state New York, Essex to be exact. His uncle has a house on the lake that he so graciously allows us to use. Here are just a few of my favorite shots from the week – I won’t bore you with my vacation photos because I know how unfun it is looking at someone elses vacation photos! 
Our first trip was to Ausable Chasm. We wanted to go there last year, but they had closed for the season. It was very neat and amazing! These photos don’t quite do it justice, so if you’re ever in the area I would suggest checking it out. http://www.ausablechasm.com/
This is looking down along the edge from the road way. Trying to put in perspective how far down it is.
This is a bridge over the Ausable River, this would have been considered the top of the river… it flows down into the chasm.
Mr. Darrenkamp at his finest!
The best part for me was the trip up Whiteface Mountain. Here is a shot from the entrance of the Ski Area. Whiteface is the only Adirondack mountain that is accessable by a highway to the summit. So we were able to get to the top of the 5th tallest Adirondack mountain without walking hours and hours. Here is a shot from the bottom…
Here is a shot from the top…
This is also from the top, you can see the roadway cutting through the mountain. That’s the road we took to the top.
This is just one of those awesome shots. This is walking in the tunnel to the elevator to the top of Whiteface Mountain. I just love the feeling in this photo. Dark and Creepy…
A Few More
We did a lot of traveling, but also some fun on the lake. This was Jared’s first venture out… needless to say I caved and joined him the next time. It wasn’t too bad!
Here is a shots from Crown Point looking at the bridge that goes from NY to VT. Vermont has a lot of great factory tours… Ben & Jerry’s, Magic Hat Brewery, Cabot Cheese, Vermont Teddy Bear Factory, and lots more. We’ve visited quite a few and know there are plenty more to see. Hope you enjoyed a few shots from the week. Now it’s back to work… vacation is over. Keep watching for more senior portraits!
