Hi, I'm Emily!

I am a visual storyteller living in New York City.

Photography, for me, is so much more than pressing a button. It's about connection, emotion, and freezing those once-in-a-lifetime moments in time.

I feel so lucky to be invited into some of the best days of people’s lives, whether they be proposals, engagements, elopements, or intimate self-love sessions, and I am so honored to be trusted with such important memories and moments. I honestly wouldn’t give it up for anything ♡

I graduated with a BA in Sociology, with honors, from NYU, where I wrote my honors thesis on the creation and presentation of identity through food photography on Instagram. I also have a graphic design degree from Parsons.
