This couple was supposed to get married in spring but the universe had other plans. When the pandemic hit, Sydney and Colin decided to move their wedding in July.

They decided to honor their original wedding date with a walk to the Carlyle house to exchange vows- just minutes away from their condo. Jeff’s mom played guitar and Michelle’s […]

Instead of captioning this myself, I thought it was more important to let Amanda & Lauren tell their story. Hopefully their IVF journey and public celebration of love will encourage and inspire others! “We decided to do reciprocal IVF even before we knew the procedure had a name! The decision was organic. I (Lauren) always […]

Amanda and Lauren were the first couple I photographed in my new studio space and I am crazy about these images!! They wanted an intimate maternity session and since this summer has been unseasonably hot, there is no better place to take maternity photos than in studio! Lauren is carrying their future son after the […]

Karen is the ultimate boudoir client. She was confident, brought amazing ensembles and had FUN. She really slayed in both outfits but the bridal number will really WOW in the boudoir book she is gifting her future husband. We chatted all about her wedding day and pumped some fabulous French inspired music. I hope this […]

I mean, THANK YOU Saharan dust storm!! The sunset for this engagement session was out of control beautiful. Honestly, the photos don’t even do it justice! We began this session about an hour before sunset at Castle Hill Cidery. It was a damp, overcast evening but the property looks so peaceful at any time really. […]
