I don’t actually know how I’m writing this post but last Thursday my sweet baby boy went to heaven. My heart is completely shattered into a million pieces and I know it will never be Whole again. Existing on earth without him feels impossible at this moment, and I can’t wait for the day that we are together again. You’ve been the love of my life for the last 17 years. And getting to be your mom has been the greatest Joy I’ve ever experienced. You are the purest form of happiness on every molecular level. It truly feels like the spark inside of me has died. I’m so grateful I got to take you on so many adventures and you got to do so many things, but it will never be enough. I could’ve had you for 1 million years and that would’ve never been enough. Rest in paradise my sweet boy I know you’re up there playing with your grandpa and eating all the cheeseburgers and chicken nuggies. Mommy loves you to bits.

🚨⚠️ EAST COAST EMERGENCY BROADCAST ⚠️🚨
A snowstorm is approaching and I have already entered my FINAL FORM.

I bought snacks.
I ate snacks.
I filmed proof of the snacks.
There are no snacks left.

I will now be returning to the grocery store like a feral Raccoon in leggings, panic-buying chips, candy, and cheese while whispering “this is for survival” even though it is clearly not.

Photographers:Don’t try to go out and take photos in this.
Clients: cancel the plans. abandon the errands. do not be brave. do not be strong. become one with the couch.

I will be inside:
– editing
– eating crumbs
– watching snow hit the window like it’s a nature documentary
– refreshing the weather app every 90 seconds
– wearing the same hoodie until further notice

If you see me in the store, no you didn’t.
If I post again, mind your business.
If the snacks disappear again, that’s a problem for future me.

STAY SAFE. STAY WARM. STAY FERALLY COZY.

✨ When you book a consultation call with me and we instantly click… ✨

You came to talk about wedding photography,
and somehow we’re now deep into family drama, favorite snacks, unhinged group chats, and how your aunt will absolutely cause chaos on the dance floor.

And honestly?
That’s exactly how I know we’re a perfect fit.

When you book a consultation call with me, it’s not just about packages and timelines — it’s about seeing if we vibe, if we laugh easily, and if we feel like friends five minutes in. Because the best photos happen when you’re comfortable, relaxed, and being fully yourselves.

I don’t just want to photograph your wedding day — I want to know you, root for you, and show up like a trusted friend with a camera and an emergency kit.

So if you leave our call feeling like:
✔️ “Wait… I love her?”
✔️ “That felt weirdly easy”
✔️ “Did we just trauma bond?”

…then congratulations, you’ve found your photographer bestie.

Off-season cardio, but make it wedding-photographer practical 💪📸
Training with my camera gear on the treadmill so when peak season hits, I’m fit, fast, and ready to sprint for first looks, dodge drunk uncles, and squat for that perfect veil shot.

Staying strong, staying fresh, staying ready to carry 47 pounds of gear for 12 hours straight 💃
Because wedding season is basically an endurance sport—and I intend to WIN.

✨💖 Call me your personal Galinda. 💖✨

With a wave of my magical camera wand (okay fine, it’s my camera—but let me live 😌), I’ll turn your simple frock into a full-blown ballgown moment. Because on your wedding day? You deserve main-character energy, soft light, cinematic angles, and photos that make you whisper, “Is this… sorcery?”

Inspired by the magic of Wicked, I believe every bride deserves her own transformation scene. One minute you’re standing there thinking, “I hope this photographs well,” and the next—BOOM—floating, glowing, ethereal, and absolutely popular 💅🏼✨

I don’t just take photos.
I see the magic, hype you up, fluff the dress, fix the veil, chase the light, and capture the moment where everything clicks and you feel like that girl.

So if you’re ready to be effortlessly iconic, slightly sparkly, and beautifully transformed—
🪄 I’ll be your Galinda.
📸 You bring the love story.

Watching a bride get ready on her wedding day is such a fun experience to watch✨

It’s kind of like watching dial-up internet load.
It takes a minute… there are a few pauses… everyone’s hovering with anticipation…

But then—
✨ BOOM ✨
She’s ready.
And it is always worth the wait.

The final touches.
The deep breaths.
The quiet nerves turning into full-body excitement.
That moment when she looks in the mirror and it all becomes real.

Slow magic is still magic. And this part of the day? Absolute gold.

✨ Fun, Funky Table Décor Is Having a MOMENT ✨

If you’re bored by cookie-cutter wedding tables, this is your sign to get playful with your tablescape 🎉

Think fringe lampshades hanging from the ceiling or perched right on the table on tiny lamps (yes, really). Fruit centerpieces are still all the rage—lemons, oranges, pears, grapes—colorful, cheeky, and full of life 🍋🍊🍐

Wavy candlesticks? Obsessed.
Bold, colorful tapers? Even better.
And the best part? You can thrift one-of-a-kind candle holders so every table has personality—because no, they do not all need to match 🕯️

Striped and playful tablecloths are back, too. Use them strategically—on the head table, sweetheart table, or alternating tables—to add visual interest without overwhelming the room.

Your wedding tables should feel like you: joyful, layered, and a little unexpected 💃

Save this if you’re planning a wedding with color, character, and personality ✨

Three months. A thousand details. One absolutely unforgettable wedding.

Pooja & Kayla’s wedding was nothing short of extraordinary, and getting to help bring their vision to life as their wedding planner was truly an honor. Watching two people who love each other this deeply tie the knot is exactly why I do what I do. 🩷🧡🤍🧡🩷

From the very beginning, every detail was planned to a tee. And in true me fashion, I couldn’t help but bring my camera along to capture all the magic as it unfolded. Pooja looked radiant in her lehenga, Kayla absolutely stunning in her kurta—together they were pure perfection.

Their ceremony at Foreland in the Catskills felt like a dream: marigolds cascading over the mandap, soft chiffon draping in pinks, yellows, and oranges, and the most beautiful energy filling the space. Thoughtfully designed tablescapes by Ailish Florals, unreal butter chicken and wood-fired naan made on site by Bernard’s Catering (I’m still thinking about it 🫓), and the dance floor never stopping thanks to DJ Shilpa with live dhol by Rana Ranbir.

To say this wedding was out of this world would be an understatement. It was, hands down, one of the coolest weddings I’ve had the pleasure of planning in my entire career—and a reminder of just how powerful love, culture, and intentional celebration can be.

✨ Forever grateful to be trusted with days like this ✨

On this flashback Friday, here’s a little story time.

When I was six years old, I asked Santa for a wedding dress for Christmas 🤍
And my mom—the absolute icon that she is—made it happen. She took a thrift-store find, tailored it down to my tiny size, and custom-made me a veil, bouquet, heels… the whole nine yards.

That little girl? She never grew out of her love for weddings.
She just grew into a wedding photographer 📸

When you choose me as your wedding photographer, you’re choosing someone who captures your love with actual love in her eyes. Someone who has adored weddings for as long as she can remember. Someone who still gets teary during vows and smiles behind the camera during first dances.

Weddings hold such a special place in my heart—and because of that, when I photograph your day, it’s filled with intention, emotion, and so much love you can feel it in your portraits.

Six-year-old me would be so proud… and probably still wearing that dress 🥹💐
