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.

Hey I'm Jill! 

I've been photographing New York families for over ten 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.
