About Me
It all started when…
I had just bought my first professional camera and upgraded my computer, and I was beginning to break into photography and really take it seriously. A few months passed, and that's when I heard about a classmate of mine getting married. I knew the couple very well I really wanted to shoot their wedding. Well, as you guessed, I asked them if I could have the privilege of shooting their wedding, and without much hesitation, they said yes!
So I traveled across the country to shoot their wedding and had a great time. I loved it, they loved it, and everything went so smoothly! A few weeks later, I invited them over and had an album/video reveal, and they cried, and honestly, I fell in love with everything and cried myself a few times as I worked on it for them. It was such a beautiful moment. They were so excited and grateful and shared it with everyone. All my other classmates saw it and were very impressed. So many people were sharing feedback on how much they enjoyed what I shot. So this inspired me to pursue wedding photography and videography, and I haven't looked back since.
After my first wedding, I shot a handful more weddings for friends. I started shooting everything and traveling the world really inspired me so I really developed my skills as I worked on endless projects and a variety of photography for individuals and companies. I have traveled the world, but ended up back in the NYC area in 2020. I now shoot with amazing and friendly photographers and videographers who work with me. I love shooting weddings in and around New York City and I'm always happy to serve couples by having part in their most important day!
What to expect from me
I love to have a relaxed day with my couples, and I do my best to make every couple feel like my only couple. I do my best to know each couple's family dynamics so that during family photos, everything gets comfortable. I like to be well-informed, so you are well taken care of. Since I started shooting professionally, I have always strived to produce the highest quality content with leading industry equipment. I work hard so you can enjoy the results.
Who I work best with
If you do not value wedding photos and creativity in your photos, then I will not be a good fit for you. I look for brides, and I work best with brides that want to go that extra step photo-wise. I capture amazing candid shots of your wedding, and you will be delighted with them, but where my work will shine the most is in the time and space for made for creative, fun, and exciting photo shoots. If you allow me and my partner space in the day for editorial-type shooting, you will get the best out of me, and I promise you will be so pleased with an exciting, fun, unique end product.
I have shot almost every wedding style, from farm to city, to luxury, to traditional to adventure, and everything in between. I have worked with all walks of life, so whatever your background is, I am excited to shoot your wedding!
I have enjoyed the life of a wedding photographer and videographer since 2017. I have always been a fun romantic type and love hearing love stories, but I love it even more when I get to capture and tell the story myself! I can’t wait to hear your love story and wedding plans! Beautifully and authentically capturing each couple’s love story for them to enjoy for a lifetime is my ultimate passion!
Whether you are planning an elopement here in NYC or jetting off to an exotic destination, I want your photographs to be more than a wedding plan checklist. My goal is to give you an experience you will always remember. A calming presence, a warm personality, a friend you will be comfortable being yourself with, and a guide you can trust.
I’m passionate about photographing couples who believe in the value of authentic photographs for a lifetime of memories. If you’re shopping around for a cheap deal, I’m not that photographer, and I’m OK with that! Because you deserve to have a photographer that will meet all your wants and needs.
My Style photography
I mostly shoot with the style of timeless, film-like, truetones, and creamy photos. It stays true to the original colors, pops, and looks amazingly unique for your delight. The truetone style makes images have to pop in different ways without just adjusting color. Truetones also allows for photos to be timeless since you won't look back years later and think, oh, that photo must've been taken in that year because it doesn't resonate with a specific year's style, such as popular trendy filters.
My Process
I love to vibe with my couples and make them feel like they are in a dream and I am there to help them stay floating on a cloud as I capture every amazing moment. The best part of these moments is they get to be relived again and again in such an amazing way with the best editing touches and combined with a trained eye for the perfect pictures. I love to make my couples feel less like they are having a photo shoot all day and more like they are actually having fun authentic moments.
Instead of just setting up my couples with a ton of poses, I like to have you actually interact with each other. I love to give you little things to do with each other as you enjoy each other and each part of your day.
Art has become something I truly enjoy as I not only work with people in capturing the most precious moments, but also sitting down and enhancing those photos and videos in my editing office. I love working with people and making new friends. Photography and videography has truly made my life more enriched and its been a real pleasure serving so many couples by capturing their beautiful day.
So I will do my best to serve you with quality and comfort and I want to make you feel confident that you are getting the best service because you deserve it!
