Stories, moments, and emotions that stand the test of time are meant to be documented.
I’ve photographed couples in love, small businesses, and families for over twelve years. I would love to tell your story next – the laughter, the teary eyes, the hand holding and embraces, the energy. No matter who you are, who you love, or what you believe in, I believe that love has no bounds and it is my honor to tell your story.

As a hopeless romantic, I’m always seeking and rooting for love. Deep, boundless love - the kind that only springs from the promise of family. That’s why I’m so fortunate to do what I do. Every day I live my passion, witnessing and honoring the purest distillation of joy. A connection built on an unparalleled moment of commitment. After 12 years of work with the most amazing people, I am still truly in love with what I do.
I am a photojournalist specializing in wedding, engagement, and lifestyle photography. Working with film and digital, my shooting style is classic and organic. I rely on the subtle changes of light and natural surroundings to capture the unique energy of each relationship and special event. Equally as important, I am a believer in empathetic communication, understanding and respecting that true love is sacred, regardless of who you are or where you come from. I am deeply committed to building a connection with you - to learn about your story so far.
Based in Rochester, New York but photographing worldwide, I live and love to travel. Each unique setting provides a fresh dynamic range - a sense of beauty made specifically for the moment. A fresh perspective anchored by the unmistakable excitement of the day and the love that brings everyone together.
When I am not behind my camera, you can find me laughing and snuggling with our 3 little boys, renovating our house and turning it into our home, and daydreaming of our next adventure… all alongside my husband who was my high school sweetheart. I believe in creating and living a life you are proud of and one that has joy. I’ve been witness to some incredible moments over the years and that is never lost on me.
Tell me your story
I GET EXCITED WHEN you GET EXCITED. I CRY WHEN you CRY. I LAUGH WHEN you LAUGH. I TELL your STORY BEST WHEN I FEEL WHAT you FEEL.
