From the beginning, to the end - and everything in between.

There are two primary ways to work with me: stand-alone sessions and events, or as a Legacy Photography Client. I would love to photograph your wedding, your child's birthday, or create portraits that highlight what makes your family yours. But if you're looking for a long-term relationship with a photographer who will get to know you, your family, and will create emotional family heirlooms you'll be able to keep forever, I would be honored to be your family's Legacy Photographer.

Fine art photography is the core of my work, whether you're commissioning a gallery collection, or working with me to preserve your family memories. My body of work, over time, has become a record of what it is to be alive.

Your story is worth telling - and it's worth preserving, too. Working with me to document your family growing and changing means coming away with an heirloom that can travel with your family through generations.

Striking, artistic portraiture doesn't just belong in museums - it belongs in your livingroom documenting your daughter's smile, and in your business promotion, highlighting what makes your work unique.

I work with a limited number of event commissions per year, largely as a part of my Legacy Photography program. From Bat Mitzvahs to weddings and elopements, your story deserves to be documented. 

Let's begin the journey of turning your life story into timeless art.
