FAQ

I define documentary photography as an unstaged, hands-off approach that captures genuine, raw, and emotional moments as they naturally unfold. I focus on authentic storytelling and “in-between” moments, working discreetly to allow subjects to be themselves rather than directing or posing them.

I studied documentary photography in both undergraduate and graduate school. My work centered around my passion for sub-cultures and the celebration of individuals and communities outside of the mainstream and norm. I learned to ensure that everyone I photographed felt trusting, comfortable and at ease with me. I ensure they didn’t feel observed and exploited but instead seen. That same philosophy is how I approach each and every wedding I photograph today.

I have found that the most flattering photographs are the ones without any interference, performance or posing. By catching a genuine and emotional moment and using my experience and skills as a photographer, I am creating an artful image that highlights your beauty.

Also yes and no. I understand the importance and value of a portrait and getting everyone you love in one photo. I use natural lighting and a relaxed atmosphere to make sure the end result is both beautiful and authentic to your family.

For wedding portraits, I often create a quiet space where the two of you can be together, be reflective and be yourselves. I don’t want to manufacture a moment but highlight your true connection.

I completely understand and feel the same way when I’m on the other side of the camera. To put you at ease, I’ll share that my portfolio is made of individuals who felt the same way. I promise our time together will be comfortable and centered around your experience. I’ll help ensure you can forget about the camera, be present and not feel performative. When you don’t feel that you’re being photographed, you can’t hate it.

I always ensure you receive an exceptional gallery of quality photographs. To achieve this standard, my regular turnaround time for your wedding gallery is 10 weeks. If you’d like a sneak peek 2 weeks after your wedding, this can be closer to 12 weeks.

For session galleries, you can expect a turnaround time of 6 weeks or 8 weeks if you’d like a sneak peek 2 weeks after your session.

For each hour of photographic documentation, you’ll receive a minimum of 100 photographs. Each will be edited to a high standard and full resolution.

I offer a variety of wedding, elopement, engagement, family and branding collections that are completely customizable to meet your specific needs. Reach out and we can begin the conversation.

Absolutely! Though I’m based in Boston I regularly photograph throughout New England. I’m open to other regions/locations as well.

Of course! I celebrate BIPOC, LGBTQIA2S+, neurodivergent and ALL individuals and couples from all cultures, beliefs and backgrounds. I am neurodivergent myself with a complex story that allows me to relate to others in a deep way. The human experience fascinates me and I’m very grateful that I can use my camera to show and record its complexity and beauty.

Whatever makes you feel comfortable!

Of course! I love photographing all kinds of events. Just reach out and we’ll cook up a custom package.

I nearly always work solo. Ensuring you and your guests can forget about the camera is how I capture the authentic and genuine moments that I do. By working alone, you’ll feel more at ease and won’t have a crew following you around. And my years of experience allow me to seemingly be everywhere at once. I also find I can document your story in a more cohesive way because I know what has and what has yet to be photographed. Lastly, as your one and only visual author, your collection of photographs will be wonderfully cohesive.

For the majority of the day (sometimes all of it!) I am using ambient light to photograph. This approach is not only less obtrusive, it also reflects how your day felt.

I understand the importance of family photographs and always ensure you have as many (or as few) portraits as you’d like. I’ll help you decide when they can take place for the least amount of impact on your day and will take the lead to ensure it is an enjoyable, relaxed and efficient experience. Each portrait will be well lit and loved by every generation.

New venues are no problem. I have years of experience under my belt, and on top of that, I scope out every venue the morning-of to get a feel for the vibe, the angles and the lighting. So when you and your party show up, I’m ready to roll.

Should there be a personal emergency or illness that prevents me from photographing your wedding, I guarantee a professional photographer with similar style, experience and approach will fill in on my behalf. In all my years, this has yet to happen. I always do my best to be your photographer!

I sure do. I’ve got two of everything on-hand at all times.
