What it's like to work with us...

Easy to work with & good under pressure. 

Not that there will be any pressure, right? Hey, listen, we've done this a few times and aren't easily fazed. We actually crave the adrenaline that comes along with a wedding day, and we make it our job to be the ones to worry, so you don't have to.

 

We help with timelines, family photo flow, vendor communication, and staying grounded when the day gets busy. We know when to step in and when to step back.

Alli

Second Shooting Specialist

Extra Eyes & Energy to Spare

Yahaira and Alli are like peas and carrots. They bring the good vibes and Alli is our first call when a wedding needs a second photographer. She’s reliable, upbeat, and always tuned in to what’s happening around her.

She helps us tell a fuller story of the day, from guest reactions, alternate angles, cocktail hour candids, family moments, and all the little in-between pieces that make a gallery feel complete.

Yahaira

Lead Wedding Photographer

Expert Romance Coordinator

Yahaira is your calm in the chaos, real moment anticipator, who had a small, intimate wedding herself.

Yahaira is the heart of our wedding coverage. She has a gift for catching the real stuff as it unfolds. The laughter that happens too fast,  to the look you didn’t realize your partner gave you.

She blends warmth, instinct, and strong technical skill with an easy presence that helps people relax and be themselves.

Jill 

Owner & Operator

Occasional Second Shooter

I’m the person behind the scenes making sure the experience feels smooth from first inquiry to final gallery. I built this brand around the belief that weddings should feel like your actual life, not a performance of it.

You may also see me with a camera in hand on wedding days, especially when extra coverage is needed. I’m known for keeping things organized, helping people feel comfortable fast, and bringing a calm presence to busy days.​

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.
