Hudson Valley — 2025Rain until 4pm, then the light you plan a wedding around. The gallery is half umbrellas, half gold — and they chose the umbrella shot for the wall.

I notice. I don't direct.
The pictures are the day — the aunt mid-laugh, the fathers pretending not to cry, the ring bearer asleep under the sweetheart table. Couples who book me tend to say "we want to look like us." That's the brief.

“She caught moments we didn't know happened. Two years on, we still cry looking at them.”

02CoverageDetails in the investment guide
Three ways to book me.
01
The full day
Ten hours, getting-ready to dance floor. A second shooter joins for weddings over 80 guests.
02
Elopements + micro weddings
Up to 30 guests, up to six hours. Different price, identical attention.
03
The weekend
Rehearsal through farewell brunch. For weddings that are really a three-day reunion.
03How it worksOne meeting, then I disappear into the day
Inquiry to heirloom.
The inquiry
Your date, your venue, and anything you want me to know. I reply within two business days with availability and the full guide.
One good meeting
A video call or a coffee. We talk through the day's shape and the family politics worth knowing. This is most of the "posing" we'll ever do.
The day, unhurried
I arrive early, stay observant, and never manufacture a moment. If you notice me a dozen times all day, that's about right.
The gallery
A sneak peek within 72 hours; the full edited gallery in six weeks, with personal printing rights included.
Investment
Every collection includes a pre-wedding meeting, online gallery, and personal printing rights.
Add-ons
Albums, hours, and everything after the day
Added to any collection, before or after the wedding. Album prices hold for two years from your date, because nobody chooses their photographs in the first month.

04Asked on almost every call
Common questions from couples
- How far in advance should we book?
- Most couples book nine to fourteen months out. Eighteen weddings a year — once a date is held, it's held. Inquiries answered in order.
- When do we get our photos?
- A sneak-peek gallery within 72 hours; the full gallery in six weeks, often faster off-season.
- Do you travel?
- Yes — the passport stays current. Travel billed at cost; destination weddings outside the US are quoted with two days on-site minimum.
- Second shooter?
- Included on full-day weddings over 80 guests. Under that, I usually shoot solo — fewer cameras, more presence. Decided together at the meeting.
