Let’s try something new! >>> Introducing THE CONTENT LIBRARY

One intentional photography session designed to give you up to 90 days of beautiful, professional imagery to pull from whenever you need it.

Depending on what you do, your session might include your environment and architecture, owner and staff portraits, candid photographs of you at work, products and details, or customer-experience and lifestyle imagery. I’ll create a varied collection that can work across social media, websites, web banners, listings, email marketing and more.

I’m *especially* drawn to places and brands where the physical experience is part of what people are buying — a beautiful room at an inn, the atmosphere of a restaurant, the details of an interior, flowers being arranged in a studio, the craftsmanship behind something handmade, or the feeling of arriving somewhere special.

I’d love to work with boutique hotels and inns, interior designers, Airbnbs and vacation properties, florists, wedding venues, farm-to-table businesses, historic properties, makers, restaurants, shops and more! And I would absolutely love to travel for the right project.

Your library can also be built around a season (think fall at an inn, the holidays at a historic property, a summer Airbnb, a florist heading into wedding season) giving you imagery that feels timely without having to create it week after week. Trust me, I understand how hard it is to constantly come up with fresh content. Figuring out what to post can be exhausting, which is a large reason I have stepped back from constant marketing.

To introduce The Content Library, I’m opening four sessions for September + October at $950 — regularly $1,450.

Each session includes:

• Pre-shoot planning
• Up to 2.5 hours of photography
• 90+ professionally edited images
• High-resolution + web-ready downloads
• Commercial usage for your marketing and social media

One shoot = up to 90 days of beautiful marketing imagery. No subscription. No ongoing commitment.

If you have a place, product, experience or body of work you’d love to show more beautifully, send me a DM or email to [email protected]
I’d love to hear about it.

I didn’t take these photos, they are of me and my family in 1979-1980. My parents gave me an old photo album yesterday and I was instantly transported back to my childhood in Queens, NY.

I remember Grandma’s bed, always made to perfection, with her rosary hanging on the corner. Great Grandma spoke only Italian but I understood the key phrases, telling me how beautiful I was and that she loved me. I can feel Uncle John’s mustache when he would kiss me on the cheek and say hello…

There’s a lot that I’m feeling right now as I type these words out. My memories are in the colors of these photos. They are warm. Yes. I close my eyes and I see it all through the lens of warmth.

What are some of your favorite photographs over the years? Who (or what) are they of? Where were they taken? What was going on in your life at the time?

There’s so much I want to document, I don’t know where to focus my energy. I’m seeking clarity on that. I can only hope I continue to do it in such a way that 46 years from now there will be an album somewhere, much like the one I’m looking at today, and it will be seen through the lens of warmth.

Last week, I spent a day by myself on Lake George. After a lovely meal, I sat myself down in an Adirondack chair, staring at the water. Twenty minutes later, a nineteen year old from the UK sat beside me. He was sweet and inquisitive and naturally the question, “So what do you do?” came up. As I began to tell him about my life and my career, in real time, I could see how who I have become as a woman, and as an artist is nothing short of amazing.

I thought about the speaking engagement two weeks prior and the bio printed in the program. I reminded myself of the way I held the room and the power I have as a storyteller - both with words and photographs. I am an expert at painting a picture with heart, and that’s something that can’t be taught. I really like who I am and I’m very proud of what I do.

Sometimes you have become who you always wanted to be, without realizing it.

There I was, staring at the Adirondack mountains, thinking of all the ways I was able to say “yes.” Yes to the lobster, the wine and mocktails with meals, the museums, the steamboat ride, the long walks, the late nights. Yes to LIVING.

Every morning right as I’m waking up, I picture the future I dream of and say,”I am wealthy. I am deeply loved. I am healthy.” And on the shores of Lake George, I saw all of the ways I already am.

The opening reception for The Embodiment Series was incredible!

I couldn't have dreamt of a better experience. There were so many hugs, so much laughter, lots of tears too...

Everyone keeps asking me how we are settling in, and I have to admit that I’m feeling guilty for not writing a sweeping love letter to our new home. I’m still looking for where the light comes in.

There are empty walls and empty frames, some still showing off TJ MAXX price tags. Crammed closets. I got a rug for my bedroom (a luxury I never allowed myself before). Lexie’s bike is at the foot of her bed until we can find a home for it. Emily’s housewarming gift (a collage with the words “safe and sound” stamped on the bottom) was the first thing I hung up. I bought myself a lounge set and had a martini by candlelight, trying to conjure up the feelings of warmth I’ve been missing.

The move in 2022 was a call to create “home” inside myself and our last residence was a grand, fresh start. This place feels like a holding area…An in-between…. Another outward manifestation of what’s inside. And as I write this, I realize I’m not caring for it in the way I should be - with tenderness and love. My attention has been so focused on the future, that I’m dismissing what’s here, now. Most of us treat the present like it’s something we need to get through, but the present is the only place life exists.

I planted seeds and I need to stop digging them up to see if they are taking root. THEY ARE. I don’t have a garden anymore, but that doesn’t mean I’m not growing things. The pots out front are full of herbs, and the flowers are coming back after the massive heat that killed them off. Pretty soon it will be big blanket and couch time again. The house will be warm, the candles will burn and the wine will be poured. I’m going to enjoy it all before it passes.

I hope you make your way here and enjoy it with me.

My good friend, Tara Rogers opening reception at Art Academy of Milton for The Embodiment Series was huge success. Am I surprised? Not at all.

There’s still time to check out her moving exhibit Sunday, August 2, 3-6

Congratulations, Tara!

I have never shared an entire gallery before, but for this event, I have to. >>> The Flight 800 Memorial 5k Run/Walk at Indian Park in Montoursville was a wonderful morning of community and remembrance.

As a member of the class of ‘97 (the first graduating class after the crash) being asked to take part in this day as the event photographer meant the world to me. When I was 17, I used my voice to sing in numerous services and performance venues to honor our lost 21, and yesterday I got to use my camera.

Thank you to Stephanie Bedison for starting this event, and to Anthony Frey for taking it over. It was wonderful and emotional to see so many old friends and community members. Montoursville is a special, special place.

We moved last weekend, but before that, we lived here. There came a point when everything was off the walls and packed away, but I left this photograph (a gift from my friend Courtney) taped to the wall in front of my bed. Amidst the piles of boxes and odds and ends that littered the floor, I wanted the first thing I saw in the morning to radiate peace.

When I was asked to leave the place I treasured most - this house - I told myself I would document the process. I said I would turn the grief into art and show the world the power of visual storytelling woven together with meaningful prose… And I started to do so. I photographed the renovations on a property we would never get to enjoy. I sat outside among the debris - paint chips scattered on the porch and on my flowers, broken terracotta pots strewn across the lawn. I ripped the daffodils from the ground and saved them, only to learn I no longer had a place to replant them. I recorded all of it. And then one day, I stopped. All I was doing was focusing on the destruction.

I asked for more. Publicly. More travel, more meaningful work, more money, more love. I wrote out my deepest desires on scraps of paper, tacked to my bulletin board and shoved between the pages of dog eared books. So first, there had to be a clearing of what was.

At the beginning of the year, I was called to be patient. I was asked to remember that large requests take large orchestration, and it’s not always about me; I have to keep in mind that there are other people in play. I became reacquainted with my inner guidance and intuition. I knew before I was asked to leave, that the place I was living in had served its purpose and I would move on. I could see how last year’s financial success paired with a lack of work this year was crucial in allowing me to work on myself. The cancelled projects gave me the time I needed to process deep feelings and forge a path forward. I noticed how in my anger, I was giving away my power, so I stopped being angry. And when my peace was disrupted, I went on a walk to regain it.

On those walks, I listened to podcasts and YouTube videos, encouraging me to follow signs and find meaning in synchronicities. I lit a candle every morning and found a feather, every day. I asked when my house was coming and I heard,”It isn’t ready yet.” I don’t know why we are in the place we are right now: all I can say is that it’s part of the plan…The house isn’t ready yet. I’m at peace with that. I claimed what’s mine, so I’m living from the space of the wish fulfilled. And I don’t want to sit in the destruction of what was, because what’s been happening outside of that has been miraculous. And that’s what I’m ready to start sharing. I’m ready to get back to creating. Back to doing what I love. Back to the poetry of life.

I hope you’ll join me.

Words of inspiration at every place setting, a beautifully set table, women gathered to meet one another and swap stories. This was an evening celebrating the completion of The Embodiment Series by my friend,

The project is incredibly important to Tara, who began it as a way to focus on connection and deeper meaning in her work. As an observer this night, I could see how much it impacted the participants.

Most times, I’m dialed in on how to share an experience, but when I think about The Embodiment Series, I feel like this one isn’t mine to write about. I was a fly on a wall this night. I got to see the fruits of my friend’s labor - and it was emotional.

July 18th, Tara will have the series on display in the gallery at . I hope to see you there, so you can fully grasp its meaning- Congratulations, my friend! 🤍
