About

I have a passion for crafting effortlessly stunning photographs that capture genuine emotions. With a keen sense of color and style, I narrate the unique tale of each wedding, embracing its moments of intimacy and joy, from the serene instances to the lively dance celebrations. I have a deep love for people, and I've been told that my smile is infectious!

After studying photography and marketing at Ithaca College, I moved to NYC to start a new adventure. That's where I fell in love with the photography industry. After living in New York City for nearly 20 years, I'm now splitting my time between NYC and San Francisco where my dashingly handsome (and wine-maker) fiance is from.

My lens has framed iconic NYC and global institutions like the Empire State Building, Rockefeller Center and Hallmark as well as notable brands in the bridal world such as the Jenny Yoo Collection, the Suit Shop, Bari Jay Bridal and editorials and many covers of LoveInc Mag, and ads across Bridal Guide, The Knot and The New York Times.

My portfolio is diverse, spanning events, weddings, engagements, and portraits for artists like Janelle Monae, Jason Mraz, and even the beloved Elmo. You may have spotted my work on buses, buildings, banners, and media ads nationwide.

Beyond the camera, I enjoy spending time with my partner between both our NYC and San Francisco homes. We have a wanderlust and enjoy traveling the world. I am lucky to share my life with a talented winemaker (Minus Tide Wines) and often spend my time in the beautiful wine country north of the Bay Area where I get a lot of my inspiration.

Effervescent and enthusiastic, I'm always on the lookout for the next story, whether it's at home or across the globe. From celebrity portraits to cityscapes, my passion for photography knows no bounds. I cannot wait to capture your special moments.

The BEST Wedding Photographer!!

JJ is absolutely amazing and a pleasure to work with! We reached out to JJ when we were looking for wedding photographers and from the first conversation JJ knew exactly what we were imagining. She was an amazing partner in the planning process and throughout our wedding day! She is extremely upbeat, responsive, and accommodating and I felt extremely at ease with her throughout the entire engagement. Our photos turned out absolutely stunning; JJ is a true master at capturing great candid moments and we have been constantly looking at the photos reliving our day. I highly recommend JJ for wedding photography!!

JJ is incredible!

I can’t even begin to describe the amazing experience with JJ and her team. 10hours of non-stop photography yet she was so unobtrusive we hardly noticed. She captured every special moment and moments we didn’t even know were happening. She’s easy going, not overbearing for the bride, groom and their families, and she has an incredibly artistic eye.

I hired her after being in a bridal party where she was the photographer. Both experiences left me with the same positive impressions.

She’s worth every penny!

Perfect from to start to finish!

We can’t recommend JJ and her team enough. She truly captured every special moment of our day and we have so many amazing photos. Her team was so easy to work with, never in the way, yet somehow captured everything. Absolutely the kind of people you want around you leading up to your big moments. She also makes the delivery process SO easy. Everything was available for us to download and share with one-step. We can’t thank you enough!!
