After firmly stating that I’d rather take the family pictures than be in them, I first started exploring my photographic career at five. My first camera - a gift from my aunt Lois-was the catalyst for enrolling in the Antonelli Institute of Art and Photography where I graduated Alpha Beta Kappa with a 4.0 GPA.

I have spent years honing my craft working as a photographer in many high profile studios in the Philadelphia Tri-State area. My experience includes wedding photography, portraiture, advertising, and commercial photography.

I have worked with clients such as Adventure Aqurium, DuPont Fibers, DuPont Automotive, DuPont Medical Systems, WHYY-Channel 12, Philadelphia 76ers, Wendy's, The Learning Channel, Samsung Four Seasons of Hope, Guident Corp, First Trust Bank, PPH, Peco Energy, Delmarva Power, Certainteed, Cigna, Blue Cross/Blue Shield, The Pennsylvania Lottery, Astra-Merck, Sony Corporation, LINGE ROSET, Samsung, Comcast Cablevision, Loews Philadelphia, Accor Hotels, The Episcopal Academy, Grace Ormonde Wedding Style, Philadelphia Magazine, Atlantic City Magazine, Colored Stone, Lapidary Journal and Main Line Today magazines.

I love weddings. I feel honored to be asked to capture the important moments of our lives that will become the family albums your children treasure. I think you will find my personality and agreeable disposition will make even the most hectic day flow with ease.

I love b&w! ( Yes, mom I take a few color images). I can rarely be seen with out a camera in my hands. My favorite subjects after brides are my kids Sean and Sarah. Debbie prohibits me from putting her images here and I can't figure out how to link one again.

The images that clients saw on my walls are what they began to ask for. Real images of families and friends with a fresh approach: no fake poses, no stiff images, just fun.
