Your Wedding Day Hype Person (With a Camera)
From the first email to the final gallery delivery, my goal is to make your experience feel effortless, personal, and fill with joy. I bring a decade of photographing weddings to each celebration, blending a calm presence with a deep love for love. I’ll gently guide you when needed, step back when the moment calls for it, and always keep an eye out for the little in-between moments that make your day uniquely yours. My couples often tell me they felt instantly at ease and that their photos feel just like them. This is because I take the extra time to truly get to know you, connect with you and become a friend that you can trust.
My approach:
01.
Fill out the contact form
Once you’ve filled out the contact form, I will be getting back to you as soon as possible.
02.
Meet up
To help everyone feel comfortable and connected, we’ll set up a time to chat (either in person over coffee, tea, or a beer, or virtually via FaceTime if that’s more your style). It’s a relaxed chance to get to know each other and talk through all the details.
03.
Picture time
When it’s time for portraits on your wedding day, my goal is to make it feel like a natural extension of the celebration, not a super formal stranger. I’ll guide you into beautiful light, offer gentle direction when needed, and keep things relaxed so you can be fully present with each other. Whether we’re capturing just the two of you, your families, or the full wedding party, I’ll help everyone feel comfortable and at ease. This part isn’t about stiff poses, it’s about creating space for real connection, a few deep breaths together, and photos that reflect all the love and joy of the day.
04.
Delivering photos
You can expect your full wedding gallery within 2–4 weeks lovingly edited and thoughtfully curated to tell the full story of your day. Before that, I’ll send a few sneak peek within 2-3 days of some favorite moments so you can start celebrating right away. Your photos will be delivered in a beautiful, easy-to-navigate online gallery, perfect for downloading and sharing with friends and family. If you’d like, I’m happy to help you explore print options or design a custom album that keeps your memories alive for years to come. My goal is to make sure your images bring you joy long after your wedding day.
FAQ
What makes you different from other wedding photographers?
I’m not just here to take pretty pictures. I’m here to make you feel comfortable, cared for, and completely yourself. My bachelor’s degree in Psychology actually comes in handy on wedding days (and photographing people in general). I’m great at reading the room, calming nerves, and knowing when to quietly step back or gently guide you for those natural, effortless photos. With my 10 years experience photographing weddings, I’ve seen it all..rainstorms, last-minute timeline changes, wild dance floors and I can roll with anything while keeping things stress-free.
When I photograph a wedding, I want to be a part of your family - I give every couple my absolute best because I genuinely love being around people and documenting their love stories. I’ve always been a hopeless romantic, so being surrounded by love truly lights me up and makes me feel alive. I tend to tear up during vows and speeches but don’t worry, I’ll still nail the shot.
How many pictures will I receive?
I don’t limit myself to a specific number; instead, I deliver a full gallery that reflects the richness of your celebration.
Every wedding is beautifully different, which means the number of photos I deliver is different every time. On average, my couples receive anywhere from 300–800 fully edited images, depending on the size of the wedding, the timeline, and honestly… the vibes! The more events, details, and energy your day has, the more moments there are to capture.
No matter the number, I promise you’ll receive a thoughtfully curated gallery that tells the full story of your day.
When will we receive our photos?
You can expect your final images within 2 to 4 weeks, beautifully organized in a private online gallery that’s easy to view, download, and share with family and friends. I send a few sneak peeks within 48 hours though ;)
Do you edit all the photos?
Absolutely! After your wedding, I carefully go through every image capture, from the big emotional moments to the quiet in-between ones. My goal is to tell the full story of your day, so I handpick the very best photos: the ones with genuine emotion, beautiful light, flattering angles, and artistic composition.
Each selected image is then lovingly edited in my signature style.
Do you take family formal portraits as well as candid photos?
Yes! Family photos can be taken before or after the ceremony. This typically takes about half an hour. It always helps to have a shot list and a designated person to call out the family members for their turn :)
Do you give posing direction or do you capture mostly candid moments?
A little bit of both! I love capturing the natural, candid moments..the laughs, the happy tears, and the unplanned magic but I know that being in front of the camera can feel a little awkward at first.
I’m always happy to gently guide you into poses that feel natural and flattering (don’t worry, nothing cheesy or stiff!). I’ll give you just enough direction to help you feel comfortable and then let you be yourselves, so your photos look relaxed, fun, and full of life. I love learning about your chemistry & dynamic as a couple and how you are together. So every couple is different and may call for a different "mood". Just know, I am here for it all and want to cater to your true selves whether that's an "editorial" moment or something more silly and/or full of joy. This is why it is super beneficial to have an engagement shoot booked so we can get to know each other, which will allow me to execute in the most iconic way!
Do you travel for weddings outside the Hudson Valley & NYC?
Definitely! I love traveling for weddings. I've shot weddings all over New York, California, Pennsylvania and Connecticut. Keep 'em coming!
Can we meet (virtually or in person) before booking?
Yes please :) I always make sure this happens because I truly do want to get to know you and be your friend. Getting to know you really helps me do my job the best that I can and it is a wonderful opportunity to just CONNECT! A wedding is such an intimate once in a lifetime event, why not make the most of it?
Will we get the digital files, and can we print them?
Yes, the photos will be delivered digitally through a gorgeous online gallery where you can download, share and print straight through the gallery itself. I also offer services to do this for you!
