WEDDING COLLECTIONS
 
Designed with intention
 
Every story I document is approached with intention, care, and a deep understanding that no two experiences are the same. Whether you’re planning a wedding on Long Island, celebrating in the Hamptons, or documenting a season of life beyond, my collections are designed to be flexible, thoughtful, and tailored to you.
Below you’ll find starting points for weddings, engagements, families, and lifestyle sessions. These collections are built to give you a clear foundation, while still allowing space to create something that feels aligned with your vision and experience.

ELOPEMENT & MICRO WEDDINGS
 
Not every wedding needs a large guest list to be meaningful. Whether you're planning a City Hall ceremony, an intimate backyard celebration, or an adventurous elopement somewhere far from home, these collections are designed for smaller, more personal wedding days with up to 50 guests.
With a more relaxed pace and intentional focus, elopements and micro weddings allow space for what matters most—your connection, your environment, and the experience itself. My approach blends lifestyle and documentary photography to capture these moments as they naturally unfold, while still providing just enough guidance to create imagery that feels effortless and refined.
No matter where or how you choose to celebrate, the goal remains the same: to document your day honestly, beautifully, and without distraction.
 
All Micro Wedding/Elopement Collections Include:
 
- 3+ hours of dedicated, continuous coverage
- Single photographer coverage with a documentary-driven approach
- Custom-tailored timeline guidance for a seamless, relaxed experience
- Private online gallery for easy viewing, sharing, and downloading
- High-resolution, fully edited images with consistent color and tone
- Sneak peek images delivered within 5–7 days

A Thoughtful Approach, From Start to Finish
You Feel Like Yourself in Front of the Camera
No stiff posing. No awkward energy. I guide when needed, but my focus is helping you feel comfortable enough to be fully present—so your photos feel natural, effortless, and true to who you are.
A Calm, Grounded Presence on Your Wedding Day
Wedding days can be overwhelming—but I’m not adding to that. I bring a steady, reassuring energy that helps keep things moving while giving you space to breathe and actually enjoy what’s happening.
Intentional Timeline Support (That Actually Works)
Long before your wedding day, I help build a photography timeline that prioritizes both great light and real moments—so nothing feels rushed, and you’re never pulled away from what matters most.
The Balance of Lifestyle & Documentary Photography
You’ll get the best of both worlds—natural, guided portraits that feel elevated, paired with honest, unscripted moments as they unfold. Nothing forced, nothing missed.
Coverage That Doesn’t Miss the In-Between Moments
Some of the most meaningful parts of your day happen quietly—in between the big events. Those are the moments I’m always watching for, preserving the full story, not just the highlights.
Fast, Thoughtful Delivery Without Cutting Corners
You won’t be waiting months to relive your day. You’ll receive a curated preview within days, followed by a fully edited gallery that’s consistent, refined, and built to last.

As a Long Island engagement photographer, I blend a lifestyle-driven approach with subtle direction, creating space for real moments to unfold while guiding you just enough to feel confident and comfortable.

It’s also a great opportunity to walk through how I work before the wedding day, so everything feels familiar and effortless when it matters most. After your session, you’ll have a full gallery of images that can be used for save the dates, wedding details, or simply documented as a meaningful part of your story.

Real Life, Beautifully Preserved
 
Family sessions are less about perfect posing and more about capturing what life actually looks and feels like in this season.
