The Process


Consultation / Booking

Every event starts with a consultation. We’ll review your goals, venue, and must-capture moments, along with packages, timelines, and special requests like same-day turnaround or multi-day coverage. Once everything is tailored to your needs, we’ll confirm with a straightforward booking agreement to secure your date.

On the final day, I arrive early to prepare and work discreetly while capturing both major highlights and candid interactions. New York City events move quickly, with lighting shifting from ballrooms to rooftops. With professional gear and experience, I adapt seamlessly to ensure every important moment is beautifully documented.

Great event photography is intentional. Before your date, I work with you or your planner to create a tailored shot list—corporate moments like speakers and networking, or private highlights like décor, portraits, and dance floors. For NYC venues, I also scout lighting, backgrounds, and timing to prepare.

 Final Deliverables        

 Post Production        

After your event, each image is carefully reviewed for color, lighting, and composition. My style is clean and timeless, preserving the true atmosphere without trendy filters. Corporate clients often request highlight photos within 24–48 hours for press or internal use, and I’m always happy to deliver quickly.


Pre-Event and Shot list

Capture the beauty of weddings and engagements with timeless professional photography. From intimate proposals to grand celebrations, we preserve every detail, emotion, and candid moment. Our photography highlights love, connection, and style—creating stunning images that tell your unique story and provide memories you’ll cherish for a lifetime.


Event Day Coverage

Why this matters     

Your full gallery is delivered digitally through a private, password-protected platform. From there, you can download images in high resolution for print or web-optimized versions for social media. If needed, I can also create curated collections for press kits, marketing campaigns, or personal albums. My goal is to make your event images not just something you look at once, but something you use again and again to extend the impact.
