Midtown Manhattan Newborn Photography Julia’s session was so special because her dad is one of my dear friends from college. Keith and I went to FIT over a decade ago together. To see him all these years later with his baby girl is so special. I am very lucky clients and friends trust me with...
NYC Newborn Photographer Being referred from other amazing local photographers is always an honor. I totally believe in community over competition and appreciate when other artists do the same in return. I met baby Owen and his sweet family at the end of July. He was a very sleepy calm baby which is always a...
NYC Fine Art Maternity Shoot I would have to say Elizabeth’s session was one of my absolute favorites. She left all the creativity up to me and we just created magic. It was a warm day in the studio even with the AC pumping but we just kept chugging through. She was up for all...
NYC 1st Birthday Milk Bath Little miss Mia belongs to my old work colleague Melissa. We had worked together years prior and it was such an honor she was coming to me for her daughter’s 1st birthday pictures. She wanted to create something extra special for her.

Manhattan Cake Smash This was my first time working with little Layla. She was apprehensive of my assistant and I at first but eventually warmed up. Her expressions were incredible and I was swooning over her eyelashes. The first two setups were a bit of a challenge because she wasn’t super happy but we played...
NYC Sitter Session Nothing is cuter than a “Sitter Session” or also known as a milestone session. These are best photographed when baby is 6-9 months or can sit unattended by themselves. Babies at this age start developing a little personality and give so much expression. They are typically also pretty immobile for the most...
Staten Island Newborn Session I couldn’t believe it when I first got told that Gabriella was pregnant. It was a bit of a shock because she had recently got married. But I think it was also because I saw her as my little sister. After working with her for two years I felt like I...
