“ She is amazing! She did our wedding a touch over a month ago and I couldn’t be happier with my pictures! Photographers have all sorts of skills including family wrangling and excelled at them all! Run don’t walk to book her!”

-Liliana

Wedding Photographer

There is so much to think about when is comes to wedding photos! All the big moments, but also all the small moments that you want to remember when looking back at your wedding photos. When I work with you, I’m here for you. I am invested in you and telling your story just the way you vision it. I want to hear about what is important to you. I want to see the photos that you have been saving on Pinterest for possibly years! LOL When you book me as your wedding photographer, your story is as important to me as it is to you. I’m a sucker for all the lovey details, how you met, the little things that make you connect! And I take all that, and I build it into how I shoot and capture your wedding photos!

Be in the Moment, 

I’ll make sure it lasts forever.

Venue Recommendations to Elevate Your Visual Narrative

Considering the significance of venue choice, we guide you to opt for locations that align with your aesthetic vision. Dreaming of light and colorful photos? A venue with white walls or a luminous white tent sets the stage for a vibrant visual symphony. Craving a touch of drama and mystery in your photos? Embrace a darker venue that enhances the allure of moody captures, fostering an atmosphere of intrigue and elegance.

Candid Wedding Photographer

Let talk about candid wedding photography! These are the moments and photos that feel natural and organic. My head is always on a swivel to watch for moments of laughter or tears streaming down cheeks. Those are the story telling moments when you can really feel the emotions in your wedding photos. I also do prompted posing to bring out more organic moments and candid—like moments when it comes to shooting you as a couple, and you and your bridal party photos! When it comes to the formal wedding photos with your family and wedding party, I do stick with the posed classics so you have all those in your rwepitware too! As I mentioned before though, I’m here for you, sooooo if you want all of a certain style or none of a certain style, we go over all that before your wedding day so we are 1000% on the same page!

Syracuse Wedding Photographer

I love shooting weddings in my ‘own back yard’ so to speak! I am based out of the Syracuse New York area and there are so many gorgeous venues this area! Everything from Downtown Syracuse wedding venues to all the towns and cities around it!  This part of the country is truly beautiful and is a perfect place to have your wedding! So if you are looking for a Syracuse wedding photographer for your wedding that is local, I’m right here and would love to make your wedding photos absolutely dreamy! You can trust me to capture your Syracuse wedding just like you imagined it!

Destination Wedding Photographer

Adirondack Wedding Photographer

What is a destination wedding photographer? For me, this looks like any place that isn’t in a couple hour drive from Syracuse. And the cool thing about living so close to the Adirondack Mountains, is that it’s an easy and beautiful drive for me to get there if you are wanting an Adirondack Mountain Wedding. Adirondack weddings are perfect for the couples that are looking for a mountain elopement, are an adventurous couple, or wanting wedding photos with an absolutely epic backdrop. I am ready to put on my hiking or snow boots to be right there with you to capture photos that are magazine worthy!

I also fly to destination weddings too! What’s the process for this you’re wondering? Same as all couples that look through my wedding packages and choose the package that fits you best. Then I price out travel fees and this is separate because traveling to different locations always has a different cost. So don’t be afraid to ask me about shooting out of the Syracuse area, Im always down to visit new places and go on some adventures! I have it on my bucket list to shoot a wedding in Greece! I’m dying to fly there and have your wedding photos be absorbed by the Greece culture and esthetic! So if you are looking for a Greece wedding photographer, reach out and lets make each others dreams come true!

The Wedding Process

I have been shooting weddings for years now! I am absolutely a professional in my field. I am here to help with wedding timelines so everything runs smoothly and you enjoy your wedding day even more! I also prefer to set up a video chat before booking so we have a chance to ‘meet’ each other and put a real moving smiling face to the emails! I also want to hear all about your wedding vision, colors, ideas, locations, GIVE ME THE DEETS! I’m am here for it! The video chat is a great chance to get to know each other and ask all the questions. Next, we BOOK! I will email over your wedding proposal which will contain your wedding contract, deposit link (which is 20% of your chosen package) and you can cross wedding photographer off your list! Breathe easy, because we are going to have some FUN and you are going to get the best wedding photos ever!
