Documenting your life as you live it

I’m a New Jersey-based documentary photographer specializing in families and couples.

I’m here to photograph your life as it actually feels: the connection, the movement, the quiet moments, the chaos, and all the little things you might not think to photograph yourself.

I primarily serve New Jersey and Pennsylvania, and I’m always up for going a little further.

Hi there! My name is Emily <3

Photography is an austere and blazing poetry of the real.
