Timeless imagery crafted with a thoughtful and intentional touch.
THE EXPERIENCE
You envision a gallery full of breathtaking images to seamlessly convey the beauty and happiness of your wedding day, surrounded by your nearest and dearest. Capturing your day precisely as you imagined it.
With a documentary approach, I offer direction when needed, but give space to allow your natural chemistry to take the lead. Let your bodies naturally mold in to one another as they would if you were snuggling on the couch watching your favorite movie.

My belief is that every person should be framed in the moments they’ve felt the most loved and cared for.
No expectations, just real, candid, emotional experiences.
Documentary wedding photography
I document it all. The sky, the trees, branches flowing in the breeze. The way your dress blows in the wind, the way you laugh when you're with your best friend. To me, the entire experience is worthy of being remembered. Capturing the ambiance through scenic shots and timeless family portraits hold equal significance to me as preserving the details of your reception and candid moments of your celebration.
Inspired by light and the human connection, I combine my love for natural light and authentic moments to document the true essence of your relationship, and all the incredible moments of your wedding experience. My style is focused on preserving your natural moments in an effortlessly artistic way.

THE PROCESS
You've looked through my work, learned about my process and now you're ready to chat. If you feel that we may be a good fit, send me a note. I can't wait to learn more about you and your wedding day plans.
When we have our initial call, I’ll ask you details about yourselves, and also give you an idea of what the process will be like working with me. We’ll chat about your timeline and logistics, your wedding day vision, and more.
A contract secures your date, and then we move forward and schedule your engagement session. Let the fun begin!
I'll craft a timeline to ensure not a moment is missed, the light is perfect, and that you experience your wedding day exactly as you envisioned it.
My approach is simple...I document the day as it unfolds, telling the story of your celebration. It is my goal to focus on the most candid, natural moments and everything in-between. I'll arrive early and help guide you through the day with a calming energy to keep your mind at ease.
This is your story...
My role as your dependable photographer, your companion, and your creative guide, is to help facilitate a wedding experience that is a stress-free, unforgettable celebration. I'm here to offer you all the essentials and support you need, even for those overlooked details you might not have considered. Together, let's create an extraordinary wedding experience, crafted uniquely for you.
Based in Central Connecticut, I've been lucky to photograph weddings all throughout New England and beyond. My expertise lies in crafting unforgettable wedding experiences in picturesque Newport, Rhode Island, tranquil mountain settings such as Vermont and New Hampshire, and the vibrant urban landscapes of New York City.

Why should I choose you?
As a seasoned wedding photographer with 13 years of experience, I understand the intricacies and nuances that make each wedding day unique. From capturing tender moments to navigating unexpected challenges with ease, experience is invaluable. But it's not just about the wedding day itself; it's about the journey leading up to it. I work tirelessly throughout the year, from engagement sessions to consultations, ensuring every detail is perfect for your special day.
How soon should I book a photographer?
It's best practice to book your wedding photography 10 months to a year in advance. If the work resonates with you, and you feel the personality is a good fit, don't hesitate to lock your photographer in ASAP. My calendar fills fast, and I would hate the opportunity to miss out on your day.
When Will I receive my photos?
Preview galleries are delivered the week following your event (sneak peeks come after a few days, so don't forget to follow along on instagram). Final galleries are delivered between 6 - 10 weeks.
Do you help with the wedding timeline?
Yes!
Prior to your wedding day, I will create a photography schedule to help guide you through your day, ensuring that no important moment goes unnoticed. During our initial call, we will discuss the events of the day to consider, as well as the amount of time to be allotted for each event. In order to give you the most accurate timeline information, I’ll need to know your ceremony start time, and if you’re interested in a first look.
What do your collections include?
Collections include a personally crafted wedding welcome guide with information on what to expect during our experience, vendor recommendations, timeline planning tips and more. You'll receive an online gallery with high resolution images of artfully curated moments, a sneak peek in your first week of marriage, and unlimited guidance throughout your entire engagement season. You'll also have the option to add on albums, prints and analog film!
How many photos will I receive in my wedding gallery?
The amount of images delivered is dependent on the amount of wedding day coverage. While no specific amount of images is guaranteed, you can expect 75 to 100 images per hour.
What is required to book my date?
A signed contract and a 50% non-refundable retainer. Once you determine that you would like to move forward I will send you my contract via email for you to sign electronically.
What is a First Look?
While it may not be traditional, a first look is an unforgettable experience that I recommend to all clients. It is a beautiful, private moment between you and your partner, which sets the tone for the remainder of your magical, relaxing day. A first look helps to alleviate nerves, and gives you the opportunity to spend more of the day together. After all, the day is about the two of you! Having a first look provides more time for portraits, as well as more portraits. Take portraits prior to the ceremony, celebrate at cocktail hour with friends and family. Getting this step out of the way early in the day frees up the rest of your time to spend with your guests.
