I hated getting my picture taken
My smile was forced, my hands looked awkward, and I was never happy with the final photo. This experience shaped my confidence-first approach to photography.
Why I became a photographer
I’ve always called Philly home. I grew up in Delaware County and went to Saint Joseph’s University where I spent hours exploring the city with my camera. I’d go on “photo walks” with no real plan, just discovering new corners of Philadelphia and capturing whatever caught my eye.
Candidly, I never liked how I looked in photos. I’d overthink every picture and wish certain things were different. That feeling stuck with me, and it’s why I’m passionate about helping others feel confident and comfortable on camera.
My journey really took shape when I started offering free family photos down the shore in Ocean City, NJ, helping other families capture the same memories I grew up cherishing. That simple idea turned into a passion.
Over the years, photography has become my way of connecting with people, building lasting relationships with families who return year after year, and finding creative joy in every story I get to tell.
My Style & Approach
For me, photography is about creating memories that feel real and meaningful. My confidence-first approach uses humor, natural direction and gentle prompting to help every client feel at ease. I want every person I work with to feel cared for, supported and like the session was uniquely their own.
From professional headshots in Center City to engagement sessions along the Main Line and family portraits in your favorite Philly park, my goal is to deliver timeless images that reflect confidence and real connection.
What it’s like to work together
It’s totally normal to feel a little awkward in front of the camera, most people do at first. To help ease your mind, I’ll guide you every step the way from where to stand to how to loosen up and just be yourself.
My job is to make the experience easy and natural so that you can look and feel your best.
