Brought up by a quirky family of artists and entrepreneurs in Vermont, I am endlessly fascinated by emotional storytelling conveyed through imagery.
Drawing from my background in fine art and documentary photography, I create photographs that feel intuitive, playful and sincere. I bring a directorial style to the right moments, and a love for the curated details that make your wedding magic.
I live with my husband, Nick, and our rescue dog, Pickles. Nick and I met at Skidmore College, where sparks flew one halloween night when Nick was dressed as a Pac-Man and I was dressed as the Charmin Bear (yes, like the toilet paper). We loved every minute of our summer solstice backyard wedding. Highlights include bawling our eyes out while reading our vows and our dog filming the wedding with a GoPro strapped to his back! Nick is a librarian at Yale and brings home the best books.
You can often find me sharing behind-the-scenes on Instagram and guides on my blog. I am based out of New Haven, Connecticut and South Hero, Vermont and often travel to document the remarkable stories of couples.

Photographing landmark moments is incredibly intimate, honest and joyful. I am so excited to capture those magical moments so they can be remembered forever.

The sense of place, how the light falls across a window pane, wedding rings, the style of the invitation suite, flowers and design - it all tells a story.
