Hiya, friend! Welcome to my little corner of the web. Here you'll find tons of past sessions, session and wedding tips & tricks, and free resources regarding all types of photography.

Tonight I was feeling down in the dumps (see Instagram reel) and in an effort to cure my blues, I broke out my camera and my newest lens and took some photos around our living room and right outside of our apartment. I wanted to post them because I was genuinely very happy with how […]

just things

Visited one of my favorite new hidden gems in Albany before the rain came. I am looking forward to doing some shoots here in the next few weeks! This spot is only 10 minutes from my house and it’s always so peaceful. I love peering into the community garden and seeing what’s growing and what’s […]

Normanskill Farm Visit & Reflecting

It’s been a while since I last blogged anything, so here’s something. While this year has been a doozy, we’re somehow getting through it together. Even though we are at least six feet apart and wearing masks, of course. Regardless of how insane we all feel & how much sh*t 2020 has thrown at us, […]

winter blues

My very best friends since birth moved up to Middlebury, Vermont when we were teenagers. While it was devastating when they left and I couldn’t run up the street in literally 30 seconds to see them anymore, it was great to know I had a place to escape to should I need a quick getaway. […]

Middlebury, VT

Backstory: I had been in need of some head shots of myself for my website, and I had scoured the internet for days on end to find a photographer to take them for me. Most of the photographers I reached out to did not even have the common courtesy to respond with a “No,” and […]

Self Portraits

I have been so, so terrible at blogging lately, and I am going to make up for it now by showing you some ADORABLE images below. But first! Happy Easter. During this super weird and scary time in the world right now, and celebrating a holiday in self-isolation or self-quarantine is not exactly what we […]

Easter Bunny

Vincent and I celebrate the holidays with lots of family, food, and cuddling with Minnie, and this past Christmas was no exception. To highlight our holiday time together, I convinced my sweet husband to do a quick photo shoot with us and the dog. It took a lot of coaxing (and a lot more treats!) […]

Christmas at home

In case you live under a rock, or you aren’t from around here, the Northeast was blasted with a winter storm yesterday (expected to continue until tomorrow morning) and it was a doozy. Like, shoveling your car out for 2 hours type of doozy. Like, up to your knees type of doozy. Like, gimme all […]

snow day!

This past weekend a majority of my family, as well as some extended family and friends, drove up to our family friend’s camp on Schroon Lake. It is always a magical, beautiful time and we all enjoyed each other’s company. We ate great food, sat by the fire, talked & talked–it was the perfect way […]
