An Introduction, Of Sorts

Photography is an act of trust. Trust that this matters. Trust that the small moments accumulate into something worth witnessing. That love, in all its daily forms, deserves documentation.

I take that seriously. Also gently. Also with the understanding that sometimes the most profound thing that happens is everyone laughs at the same moment, and that's enough.

On Expecting

Every family develops its own physics. Its own gravity, its own rules about touch and distance and sound. I'm interested in yours. Because no two families are the same, and I believe that to be true for photographers too—that's why it's equally important to find the one that gels with your daily life and family.

Human connection is why I show up day to day as your NYC maternity photographer, so why wouldn't I think it's important to you? I can confidently say that the relationships I have created from this profession have come from having mutual common ground—and that includes wanting to have a great experience throughout this process. An experience I can promise you will be fun, natural, and engaging, whether we're doing maternity photography for couples or capturing your growing family.

On Growing

I document families. Not the idea of families, but the actual living of them. The specific weight of your specific child at this specific moment. The particular way your partner touches your shoulder when they think no one's watching. These small actions of intimacy that build a grand, beautiful life. That's what New York family photography should capture.

Some families are quiet. Some never stop moving. Some organize themselves around the baby, others around the grandparents, others around the dog. There's no wrong way to be a family, only your way, and that's what I want to see. As a family photographer in NYC, I've worked with every type of family configuration you can imagine, and I love them all.

I approach maternity sessions similarly, like I'm documenting a private miracle. We'll find locations that feel like yours—maybe that's your living room at golden hour, maybe it's the park where you told him, maybe it's somewhere that just feels right for reasons you can't name. Working as a New York maternity photographer has taught me that the best maternity photography happens in places that mean something to you.

Regardless, I'm so excited to capture it all for you—from your NYC baby photographer needs to documenting your growing crew through every stage.
