Photography and I have a long history. Long story short: it chased me for years, and I played hard to get. I flirted with it in high school but treated it like a fling. Unable to fully commit, I kept things casual in college (#lenswithbenefits).
I even married another career, but divorced it after a few years when I realized photography was the one I couldn’t let go.
A guest came up to me at a wedding and said, “You must really love doing this. You’ve been smiling all night!”
I do. Weddings are a strange, beautiful mix of chaos and emotion, and I feel very lucky to be invited into that. My job is to observe closely, stay calm, and make things feel less weird when there’s a camera involved. I’m good at that.
I live with my partner, a brilliant clothing designer, and our two cats named Bird and Bean who found us through the cat distribution system and officially made us cat people. “Bird & Bean” is also the name of the coffee shop I plan to open once I'm ready to move on from the wedding thing. I have 53ish plants. My favorites have names. I travel as often as I can. I rewatch Mad Men every year. Two sips of wine and suddenly I'm way too honest. I blame my personality, flaws and all, on being an Italian Capricorn.
If you know what that means, we already have plenty to talk about. I’m pretty obsessed with personality types, birth order, and why people are the way they are. It’s not a phase. I’m a licensed mental health counselor, which tends to come in handy when your aunt is having a meltdown over seating arrangements.
If you're looking for someone who stages every moment or says things like “act natural,” we might not be a match. But if you want someone who notices the quiet, meaningful stuff and doesn’t make it weird—I’d love to be there.
