Never hesitate to ask for a session in place I've never shot at or been! A few weekends ago, I had a couple request a session at a brewery.

Hey I'm Jill!

I've been photographing New York families for over twelve years now, and I can honestly say I love my job!

I prioritize creating honest photos of families being them. My number one goal is to create a visual time capsule for you.

The photos we create together are for you, but they're also for the people that love you. These images will serve as bits of proof that you were here, you loved, and people loved you back.

My Mission

To create honest photographs that feel nostalgic and true.

To collaborate with families rather than reshape them.

To celebrate and represent people of every race, ethnicity, body type, ability, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, and family structure.

All humans are welcome here.
