About ME &

My

PROMISE

to you 

One thing I’m really good at is calming people.
It’s a skill I honed during my 20 plus years documenting weddings.

If you don’t know, weddings can be tumultuous at times, fraught with emotions and chaos.
My couples and their loved ones were always super amazing, down to earth, and rolled with all the punches.

But at times, no matter how well thought out the day was, things happened.

If you’re concerned about stepping in front of the camera yourself or unsure of how your team will be in front of the lens, don’t worry. I’ve got you.
I keep the atmosphere calm and relaxed and guarantee images you’ll be excited to use.

Another thing my years of documenting weddings taught me was the ability to think on the fly, react quickly, and pivot.
Even with the best of plans, Murphy's law sometimes came knocking.

I can’t tell you how many times a planned outdoor ceremony was rushed indoors because of weather, or when the perfectly planned backdrop became unavailable.

(for instance when a mega yacht parked itself on the Boston waterfront blocking the water view for my couple and the crew refused to move it, even after offering to pay them. Rude!)

In those unscripted moments, I needed to think fast and creatively, make sure I could direct quickly and kindly, and reassure everyone involved that it was all going to work out
- as well as deliver amazing results.

I’ve learned how to set-up and break down lighting in a flash (pun intended).
I’ve learned how to make some really stellar images in locations most people would overlook as absolutely terrible (knowing how to use light, creatively crop, and having a little faith helps here).

I’ve learned how to create an environment, from day one, where your session will be a complete success.
I make sure to have a solid plan in place and I also make sure to have a few backup plans in my pocket too.
Because you never know.

And, no matter what, I’m going to get the job done and get it done well.
You don’t have to worry.
Let me take that stress off your plate.
I'll handle it.

My Promise to You is to be there to help you through every step of this photographic process.

I’ll happily explain each and every step with you.
I’ll give tips and ideas. I’ll help guide and direct.

We will collaborate on the best path forward, and I will bring a solid plan for the day of our session.

I’ll do all this while also creating a safe and welcoming environment where you and all involved are allowed to be fully YOU.

And in the end, I promise, you’ll receive images that genuinely showcase you.

Because, I want to see you thrive.
