Syracuse Family Photographer
I am an award winning Syracuse Photographer Wedding Family Portrait Studio
I have always been creative and growing up you could often find me drawing, painting and photographing (this was before everyone had a camera on their phone!). Before becoming a professional photographer, I was a massage therapist living in Santa Fe New Mexico. The art there was profoundly inspiring (3rd largest art market in the United States) and eventually I found myself sculpting and putting them into bronze. I eventually had my artwork in several galleries while continuing to be involved in the healing arts. Photography had always been my first love and I continued to photograph during this time. Being a bit of a nomad and explorer I eventually ended up living in Oregon, Arizona and finally California. In California I assisted a studio/celebrity photographer (Ron Jaffe) and shortly thereafter officially began my photography career.
People often ask me what my favorite kind of photography is and to be completely honest, I have a hard time picking. Each kind of photography has it’s own rewards as well as challenges. I love the fact that every day is something different that requires a different mindset and way of perceiving. With that said, I am available for all kinds of photography including; Family Photography, Maternity and Newborn Photography, Engagement and Wedding Photography, Head Shots, High School Senior Yearbook Pictures, Special Events, Model and Acting Photography along with Boudoir Photography.
I serve Syracuse, East Syracuse, Fayetteville, Skaneateles, Auburn, Oswego, Rochester and all of Central NY. I have also traveled across the country for different projects including corporate and wedding photography. So if you are outside the Syracuse area, don’t hesitate to contact me. I love to travel!
My work has been published both nationally and internationally. Some clients I have worked with include;
The President of the United States, Miss New York Shelbie Handville, Labatt’s, SU Basketball Coach Jim Boeheim, MacKenzie-Childs, Burger King, Bauer Hockey, Make-A-Wish Foundation, Lambda Legal, Aspen Dental, Auston Matthews from NHL and New York Times Best Selling Author Tamora Pierce, Freed Maxick, AES and NYSERDA and others
