award winning new york photographer
Our style is classic, full of life, and in the moment. We love to keep you in it, and be a part of the team that brings the vision to life. We love the timeless look of black and white images and shoot with a number of different film (and digital) cameras to add to the storied quality. The end result is photographs that feel distinct, time-honored, and impossible to replicate.

the Experience of Collaborating
for those who want a tailored approach
the nature of building relationships with my clients - that span years - has been even more rewarding than I could have imagined.
Consistency is something we have built over the last two decades. Not just in our imagery, but in our relationships with people. Our ability to work on a team and guide you to create effortless photographs that keep you in the moment is what has allowed us to be a best kept secret. Clients refer us within their circles and planners pass our name to those who want a refined yet laid back approach. We won't take over the day but we will subtly blend in. You will trust our eye to guide you through the experience of being in front of a camera and know that we are seeing the whole picture. in the end you will feel comfortable, at ease, and delighted that we captured a moment you cherish in 20 years.
From my early days in the darkroom to traveling the world with a camera, pursing art was a piviotal decision I made.
I studied film photography in college, quickly starting my own photography business after graduating. Now I focus on combining traditional film and modern digital mediums. While digital is the core of our work, film informs the aesthetic and allows depth in the gallery. Drone coverage is included, and super 8 films can be added on. With Mary as the lead, she builds a team specifically for each event bringing 1-3 additional photographers.
