My photography story is a little different than most. I didn't grow up with a camera in my hand, my parents never took a ton of pictures of me, and I never considered myself a creative person until my mid-twenties.  My interest in photography began around 2003, I had just finished graduate school and had a lot more personal time to learn other things.  This was also the time when digital photography was becoming way more mainstream and financially accessible.  I liked that because I could learn quickly and try new things.  Plus, I  was fascinated by all the technical aspects of the technology. The thing I still love about photography is that you never know everything and you are constantly learning.  

​

Documenting Life's Moments Photography began in 2008. It's was my desire to continue to connect with people that drove me into my photography career. I enjoy all photography that is focused on people and capturing who they are or just a certain time period in their lives.  To quote the famous Ferris Bueller, "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it."  Capturing the important images in your life is important to freeze those moments and have the ability to look back and reminisce.

​

I'm based out of Boston and am willing to travel to many different locations around New England for my clients. I use a variety of techniques gleaned from my 20 years of experience. Not only do I focus on true-life candid photography, but I also respect the importance of a great traditional image.  

​

What you may not know about me is that I have been an educator (elementary) since 1999. Needless to say, I have a lot of experience working with children and preadolescents.  My love of teaching spills over into my passion for photographing people.  More importantly, I understand the special responsibility I am entrusted with as your family's photographer.

​

The moment when your child smiles at you, your all-grown-up daughter walks down the aisle, or when your family is dancing around in an ecstatic circle as your son is elevated during the Hora---you want to freeze that moment in your mind. Time stops and you realize that it's a moment that will never happen again. It's special and most importantly -- real.

 

I live for capturing moments like that. It's why I take pictures. I want those images to grace your walls, sit on your desk, and be shown to your grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Those special moments only take second to capture, but will be loved for a lifetime.

Thanks for your consideration.
