When I tell you this venue is stunning, THIS PLACE IS STUN-NING. Of all the venues I’ve shot in Morocco, Villa Taj has a different energy to it. While the others had more of an austere personality (but still incredibly beautiful), this one has more of a modern feel; more punch, a little more playful in design, and artfully curated. This place is perfect for the couple with style in spades. Every corner of this venue was just a joy to behold, and so thoughtfully designed. The canopies, the palms, the climbing vines, the exotic lanterns, the flora and fauna—just gorgeous moment after go ..read more

Hannah and Ben—these two young lovers really make you believe in a special kind of love. From the very start of Hannah’s inquiry through out the entire wedding day they could not refrain from declaring their love for each other. It made my heart feel so full for them!

This Marina State Beach family session is absolutely breathtaking. But before we get to the stunning family photos, I have to share a little more about my California adventure with you! While in California I spent some time in Monterey and thought it would be fun to go whale watching! Hoping that I had outgrown my sea-sick-issues, I went for it! Well, I am here to tell you folks, I did NOT outgrow it! I managed to get about 1/2 way through the whale watching adventures before I ran to the back of the boat to be sick in private. If you don't know this, you shouldn't go into the bathroom or into ..read more

Before meeting up with Mandy and Scotty for their elopement I had a little free time and decided to adventure over to Point Lobos. Let me go ahead and tell you, the views did not disappoint! The cliffs had the most beautiful Monterey Cypress trees. They gorgeously grow under the constant batter of sea and wind. I did some research and found they only grow in 2 places out there and can live to around 200 years or up to 400 if it’s a single tree. Pretty wild if you ask me! I then headed to meet Mandy and Scotty at Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park. As soon as I arrived I was in absolute awe o ..read more

Nothing makes me happier than finding little hidden gems like this! The Funky Loft is located in Brooklyn and is filled with so many interesting spaces and things. The loft served as an Airbnb as well as a studio space for creatives to rent out by the hour. There were Covid precautions in place and everything felt very safe. I split the cost of the space with another photographer from upstate New York named Meaghean who owns Vows & Views Photography. She drove down and I flew into JFK. One Uber ride later I arrived at the loft. It was easy to find and Marcella, the loft owner, left very d ..read more
