Light your life. Share your story. Love your look.
Life moves too fast. We’ve all had that breathless feeling of wanting to freeze a moment in time, whether it be a milestone event in your life, excitement during your performance on stage or just a lazy afternoon, appreciating the little things. Let’s work together to create beautiful heirloom portraits that reflect who you are, that capture this season of life, so you can remember, celebrate and share it all in the days, years and decades to come.
I am a professional photographer serving dancers, performing artists and families throughout the greater Philadelphia region and I’m here to help you light your life, share your story and love your look. Let’s get started.

Performances
Dedication, passion, and achievement are words that you and your dancers know well. After the final ovation and bows are over, you can all still savor the feelings and memories. We’ll make sure you have the images to help you share those memories with your students, families and fans.

After all these years, you’ve made it! And you want to look good. Let’s leave behind a legacy and some memories with a senior photo session before the start of your next big adventure.
Headshots
Your headshot is often your first impression on the world these days. Do you need to update yours for business, auditions or social media? Do you want to try out some different aspects of your personality in front of the camera? My studio is open, rain or shine.
Families
Your family is beautiful, messy, complex and fun. Let’s take an hour or two to explore that! The photos that result will make you smile for years to come.

Location
We have so many wonderful options to choose from for your photo session! Your favorite park, my studio, your home or even the streets of your town are some of the possibilities. I work throughout the Main Line of Philadelphia and am available for travel through the greater Philadelphia region, Delaware Valley and beyond. Your session is totally customized, so we will choose a location that suits you.
For outside sessions we want beautiful light for your portraits so we will try to time yours to the golden hours just after sunrise or just before sunset. For studio sessions, we’ll create patterns of light using studio strobes that compliment your best features. When we are creating light we are not dependent upon the sun so studio sessions have more flexibility with timing.
