Lay back, act natural, and let’s take some pictures
This isn’t about a photo session, or even the pictures, it’s about You. Forget about posing and feeling stiff in front of the camera. Imagine going on a walk with an old friend, who just happens to have a camera with them. My process is free and flowy, and my only goal is to capture your true self.

The big day! This is what we have been planning for. Your job that day, enjoy the big moments and the little ones. Take time to absorb the love around you and leave capturing the memories to me and my team.
Have you photographed at our venue before?
Over the years we have been to numerous venues in the tri-state area, so there is a good chance the answer is yes, but if we haven’t all of our photographers adapt well and will scout out the area for the best locations to take photos. We also do our homework and research your location before your big day to familiarize ourselves with your venue.
What should I wear to the engagement session?
I will give you one tip - dress like yourself. Wear what makes you feel good, and what you feel confident in!
How many pictures will I receive?
We don’t have a set number of photos that we limit ourselves to it depends on the size and amount of photo opportunities during your wedding. We average a minimum of 1500 pictures with most weddings having many more images than that. Your photos are ready for delivery approximately 4-6 weeks after you wedding.
Are you available outside of Long Island?
Yes! I love to travel. Some of my most favorite weddings have been on the West Coast. I always have my passport ready!
Do you only do wedding photography?
No! I have made a name for myself in the architectural world and have been photographing houses for architects and builders along the East Coast. In the fall of 2023, I was featured in Architectural Digest.
I also have The Next Chapter, by Ken Hild. This is a fairly new facet and I am super excited to add this option for our clients. This is where maternity shoots, family portraits, and other life milestones are captured! It's always a blast to see my couples again and the amazing life they have created in their next chapter.
