It’s weird and difficult to be seen “trying”. What if I tell people about my goals and then I don’t get that thing or I change my mind? What if it’s a really lofty goal, and I might not make it?

Well, I’ve officially decided I’m entering my “I don’t give a f*ck” era. OWN THAT SH*T. 

I know it can be overwhelming to have big dreams, lofty goals, or unique desires. Because it’s difficult to know where to start, how to take action. And not just get stuck in wishful thinking. 

Sharing them, putting them out into the ether so to speak, is the first step. Speak them out loud and into existence, gives them an existence outside your brain. These things won’t just HAPPEN, you have to take action and move the needle forward. 

But, it’s an easy win to just SHARE. You’re not only making it real by speaking it into existence, you’re creating accountability by allowing others to know them.

I’d love for you to share a dream, goal, or desire in the comments. 

(Because, come on, I shared some of mine. Don’t leave me hanging.)

Rainbow + Jacob, 3.6.26. Their day was heavily inspired by ren fairs & the renaissance as a whole. Rainbow was a mastermind with a VISION, and I loved helping it come to life through the photography. Collaborating with people who have such a specific aesthetic is my FAVORITE thing.

To blur or not to blur? People have FEELINGS about blurry/out of focus images, and I understand why. Especially with how trendy they’ve been. But hear me out—

As a lifelong photographer I’ve always connected with them [whether I took the photo or not] and I could never articulate why. UNTIL, I was listening to a years old podcast went on and Justyna gave me the words I didn’t have previously.

When we reflect back on our memories & experiences, are they ever crystal clear? No, they’re fuzzy, but still there. You’re able to put yourself back in that moment, but with the edges softened quite a bit.

Personally, I think they capture the essence of the moment. These photos aren’t the main feature of a gallery, they’re meant to be a supporting role vs the lead actor. I also rarely ever *try* to get them, they’re just bound to happen in the fast paced nature of a wedding day.

I’m curious to know your thoughts!! Blurry/out of focus images yes or no??

this is an example of “your venue is your photos” in practice. Fun fact; I don’t carry flat lay mats with me because I prefer to find a backdrop unique to the day within your venue. This Greek key tile at is my FAVE to work with.

It’s incredibly important to me as a photographer that the images you receive are intentional, individual to you, and reflect your day as it happened. This is just one more way that gets accomplished. 🫶

photos that just scream: “women. 🤌” [part two]

yesterday was international women’s day and I couldn’t let it pass without acknowledgement. Since we’re celebrating women ALL month, I’m going to spend some time reflecting on what words I want to share to honor us badass women properly. 😉

[not so] HOT TAKE: do what feels right to YOU & your partner on your wedding day. Alani & Brayden reading their vows without seeing each other was so so *them*.

First looks are great for many reasons, they can help alleviate nerves & get lots of pictures done before ceremony. But it’s always important to prioritize what YOU value and not only what is most efficient. 🫶

a drag path, but it’s a shoe repair shop in Columbus Circle I photographed in 2024 not realizing it’s in the background of a (poorly shot) photo from my first trip to NYC nine years earlier.

Fun fact: I realized I wanted to try and live in NYC on that trip in 2024.
& the trip nine years earlier, I had bought my first “big girl” camera and learned how to use it while exploring NYC.

talk about invisible string theory, drag path, kismet, all the things. nyc has always been with me.

reminiscing on this beautiful day. Oriana & Brandon’s day is SUCH a great example of how important the details are; *especially* if you have a vision for your photos and guest experience. ♥️ Their gallery would not be the same without the getaway car, the amazing vibes the DJ made, the cake, the decor, and the venue they chose.

I never want couples to feel the pressure to perform on your wedding day & deliver a Pinterest worthy experience. It’s your day after all; it should be unique to you. ♥️

BUT— If you WANT to be extra, & have a specific vision, every detail is important. Cause all of those details directly impact your photos.

I’ll help bring that vision to life. Inquire via my website & let’s get started. 🤟

I will DIE on the hill that those belts are incredibly different.

^^ at nearly every wedding, I seem to inevitably catch the groom fiddling with the ring newly placed on their finger. it feels like an in between, sweet moment that wouldn’t always be noticed. Or even remembered. But now it is. 🫶

Also realizing I haven’t shared any photos from Liv & Jake’s intimate wedding day back in October. 🙈 Should I share more of their portraits or moments from dinner at a gorg French restaurant??
