New York City Elopement & Wedding Photographer

Hey thank you so much for stepping into my wedding world and honoring space for love during these truly crazy times.

I’m a native New Yorker born on the upper west side of manhattan. My passion for photography started as a teenager with an obsession for light and shadows, seeing things no one else did, like how a tree can become a mural on the side of a wall.

My photography has taken many beautiful twists and turns. In my formative years I focused primarily on fine art portraits and photojournalism. 5 years ago I ended up getting a job with an elopement company in Nyc, through a craigslist ad, yeah!! haha. I never thought I would get into weddings. I had no idea you could make artistic wedding photos, the standard within the industry had been so white washed and over the top princess vibes I don’t think many of us knew any better. Things have changed so much in just a few years and there is a really beautiful energy coming from smaller intimate weddings and elopements and a new wave of fine art wedding photographers changing the scene.

Wedding photograophy is amazing, and I love it. I honor what I do and see each wedding as a unique and meaningful experience, no one can ever be the same. I love the ethereal and romantic nature of weddings. I spend only a few hours with you but capture so much more than that.

My photography style can be described as artistic with a focus on storytelling. I love using the surroundings to create depth and context. And I love colors and using street art and layered graffiti walls as backdrops. NYC has such a wealth of variation it’s an incredible place to make images.

In addition to photography I also attend NYU graduate school for mental health counseling. I think my love of people and photography are equal and in the end I hope to work in both fields.

I currently live on the upper west side with my husband Ralph and my 2 year old daughter Luchiana Aruna. Looking forward to connecting more . G
