your photos, your way
est. 2018
I'm Clare, a 30-something portrait photographer based in Albany, New York, USA. Thanks for stopping by!
Some facts about me: I am an upstate New Yorker, tried and true. I cheer for the New York Yankees and the Buffalo Bills. Unlike most people, I hate the summer and would honestly take snow over 100 degrees any day. I love lots of vibrant colors because they make me happy. Call me old-fashioned, but I like being in bed on a Friday night by 9pm. I am a huge mental health advocate, and I pride myself on my kind and empathetic nature.
Wanna work with me? Let's do this thang!
Your photographer and newest friend!

Whether you're engaged, dating, or married for 50 years, I love capturing couples in their element: madly in love with each other.
