Classic & Refined Spring Wedding at Park Avenue Club
Florham Park, New Jersey | A little rain couldn’t stop Siobhaín and Kyle from having the most beautiful celebration of their love. And when I say it rained all day… it truly didn’t let up. Although they say rain is good luck on your wedding day, it’s never your first choice for weather — however,…
A Chilly & Romantic Sea Girt Engagement
Sea Girt, New Jersey | April showers bring May flowers, right? Well, so they say — but sometimes, the beginning of May can be just as chilly as March! Colleen and Ben’s engagement session turned out to be on the colder side, but you’d never know it by the photos! These two did such a…
Classic & Chic Central Park Engagement
New York, New York | Such a beautiful evening in Central Park with Kate and Sam! Central Park can often be full of tourists, runners, and cyclists and it’s sometimes challenging to shoot there at any time other than right after sunrise, but we got super lucky for Kate and Sam’s evening session. It was…

Whitehouse Station, New Jersey | Lauren and Todd’s fairytale wedding day at The Ryland Inn Coach House was nothing short of perfection!

Spring Cross Estate Gardens Engagement
Bernardsville, New Jersey | When I say I am obsessed with this engagement session, I mean it! Vivian and Simon’s initial vision for their engagement photos was amongst the cherry blossoms at Branch Brook Park. However, we slightly missed the window for peak bloom and decided to pivot and shoot at Cross Estate Gardens instead…
Sunrise Brooklyn Bridge NYC Engagement
New York, New York | One of my favorite places in the city to shoot is on the Brooklyn Bridge — however, it is also one of the craziest (and at times, scariest!) places to be at any time other than sunrise. There are so many people on bikes and tourists taking photos that shooting…
Spring Princeton University Engagement
Princeton, New Jersey | From the first time chatting with Maria and Michael, I knew they were going to be the absolute sweetest!

Spring Grounds for Sculpture Engagement
Hamilton Township, New Jersey | One of my favorite parts about shooting engagement sessions, aside from meeting all of my sweet couples before their wedding day, is getting to go to locations I might not have explored on my own! When Alexandria suggested shooting at Grounds for Sculpture for their engagement photos, I was all…
Sunrise Hoboken Waterfront Engagement
Hoboken, New Jersey | I absolutely love whenever my couples are up for a sunrise session! Although my brain isn’t always happy when it has to wake up before 6am, it’s so worth it for the empty streets and glowy light. We originally scheduled this session based around Matt’s work schedule, and but that morning…
Luxurious City Wedding at the Lotte New York Palace
New York, New York | Hannah and Doug had the most exquisite celebration to make their marriage official.

Hannah and her bridesmaids got ready on the 48th floor The Towers…
Spring Princeton University Engagement
Princeton, New Jersey | I’m so excited to share my first engagement session of the spring with Casey and Tim! Although the weather was touch and go all day — even a few rain showers on my drive there — things cleared up and gave us some beautifully diffused cloudy skies, and just the right…

If you are recently engaged, first of all — congratulations!!! Second of all, you might be starting to think about taking engagement photos with your fiancé. But with so many decisions to make as you begin to plan your wedding, you may be asking yourself: is an engagement session really worth it? As a wedding…
French Farmhouse Branding Shoot
Farmingdale, New Jersey | As soon as I laid eyes on the French Farmhouse on Home Studio List, I instantly fell in love and knew I had to do branding photos there. It was the perfect mix of rustic and modern (aka transitional, my favorite interior design as of late) and evoked the exact vibe…
Don’t Forget These Wedding Day Details
After months — and maybe even years — of planning, it is FINALLY the morning of your wedding day! It feels like there’s so much to do; your wedding party members are arriving, hair and makeup is getting set up, your family members are coming in and out with breakfast, coffee, etc. Take it from…
Winter Hoboken Waterfront Proposal
Hoboken, New Jersey | Shooting a proposal is always special, but nothing compares to when it’s one of your best friends! I’ve known Katie since 6th grade, when we first met in science class and bonded over our mutual weirdness. Fast forward 17 years later and I’m shooting one of the most special moments of…
Winter Boston Public Garden Engagement
Boston, Massachusetts | We shipped up to Boston for Courtney and Ryan’s engagement session, and of course it happened to be one of the coldest weekends of the year so far! Thankfully it was 40° the Friday that we were shooting, because the next day was about 10° — and the following weekend was even…
Winter Brooklyn Bridge Park Engagement
Brooklyn, New York | January sessions definitely aren’t for the faint of heart, but Katie and Matt totally killed it in the cold! These two first connected on Bumble (just like me and my own Matt ) — and funny enough they’re both originally from California, and even had some mutual friends, but didn’t meet…
Fall Cross Estate Gardens Engagement
Bernardsville, New Jersey | This was my LAST engagement session of 2021! It’s crazy to believe that 35+ engagement sessions later I’m nearly done for the year — but still two more weddings left before ringing in 2022. Lucie and Jon first met when they were working together as teachers! As Lucie tells it,…
Fall Spring Lake Beach Divine Park Engagement
Spring Lake, New Jersey | My final Spring Lake engagement session of the year was truly the best of both (or rather, all 3) worlds — downtown, park, and beach! And for this sweet couple, the beach is truly such a meaningful part of their relationship. Alyssa and Bob first met through work, and bonded…
Fall Manayunk Philadelphia Engagement
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania | This engagement session was my first time shooting in Philly!

Like so many of my couples, Julia & JT are high…
Fall Princeton University Engagement
Princeton, New Jersey | Two sessions at Princeton in the past month and I can’t complain — it’s truly one of the most beautiful areas in the state! Not to mention, it’s a super meaningful place to this sweet couple, Brooke and Mike. These two had one of their first dates there, as well as…
Fall Central Park Engagement
New York, New York | I absolutely love when couples are down for a sunrise session, so when Colleen and Dylan agreed to an early morning in Central Park I couldn’t have been more excited! Is it an early wakeup call? Totally. But does it also give you basically private access to some of the…
Fall Princeton University Engagement
Princeton, New Jersey | So many of my couples find me online via Instagram, but Brianne and Scott were actually at a wedding that I shot in September! In fact, Scott was a groomsman, and he sent me an email when he and Brianne began planning their wedding. I was so excited when Brianne and…
Dreamy Oceanfront Hamptons Wedding at Oceanbleu
Westhampton Beach, New York | Where to even begin?! Hayley and Anthony’s Westhampton Beach wedding was truly the celebration of their dreams. These two were originally supposed to get married in May, but made the difficult decision to postpone until later in the year. All of their vendors were available for their new date —…
Spring Lake Beach Divine Park Engagement
Spring Lake, New Jersey | My last Spring Lake engagement session of the year (at least, I think!). I shot more this year in Spring Lake than any other location, but it’s one of my favorite places so I certainly can’t complain. And I had the best time working with Kaitlin and Chris! I’m so…

Spring Lake Beach Divine Park Engagement
Spring Lake, New Jersey | Sometimes rescheduling for inclement weather results in… well, the best weather EVER. Ali and Michael truly had the most incredible day for their engagement photos. We were originally supposed to have their session at the end of August, but that day turned out to be rainy so we had to…
West Village NYC Engagement
New York, New York | It was so much fun working with Christina and Tim again, this time in the West Village — and I say “this time” because the last time I saw them both, I was shooting their proposal in a snow-covered Central Park! While very different conditions, both sessions were so incredibly…
