Remembering Finn

5/22/2026

2 Comments

 
Harold got in touch with me when he got an unfortunate diagnosis for his dog Finnley. Finn was a very special dog and had an incredibly strong bond with Harold. He shared with me some of the rough things that he'd gone through in the past few years that Finn had helped him through. I think Finn was just returning the favor, as Harold had saved him from the shelter where he'd been for over 2 years waiting for his forever home. 

Finn and Harold came into the studio and even though Finn was sick, he did such an amazing job posing. I was happy that Harold also got into some shots with his beloved pup. Unfortunately Finn was gone very shortly after we met for our session. I helped Harold design the perfect album to memorialize Finn. Sometimes these photos can be tough to look at right after a loss, but I always tell clients that one day they'll look at them and smile instead of cry. 

A few months after Finn passed, Harold told me that he had brought home his first foster dog Darla, a pit in need just like Finn was. It was so nice to hear he was honoring Finn's memory by helping another dog waiting for their forever home. Best of luck to them both!

​Here are some of my favorite photos we got during Finn's session!

Nine times out of ten, moms are the ones who get in touch with me to book sessions. One thing a mom will always want is updated photos of their families to decorate their homes, show off on social media, display on their desks at work, etc.

Whether you have a mom, wife, dog mom, cat mom, aunt or grandma to celebrate this Mother's Day, photos are always a gift they'll appreciate!

While it's too late to book a session with me in time for Mother's Day, it's never too late to give the gift of a photography session. 

You can purchase e-gift cards from me that will be sent instantly to your recipient's email! Or you can send the gift card to yourself to print out and put in a card for your loved one.
 

If time got the better of you this year and you're scrambling for something heartfelt, the gift of photography is something that the mom in your life will always adore. Sessions can take place in my home studio in Farmingville, at the client's house or on location within Suffolk County, Long Island.
​
My gift cards are available in any amount over $25. Most gift-givers choose to cover my session fee ($150 for regular sessions, $250 for newborn sessions) and a little extra to include a few photo prints. You can find all my pricing information and product menu here, and when you're ready,
purchase e-gift cards here!

Artist Popup Collective this Saturday 5.2.26

5/1/2026

0 Comments

 
I'm excited to announce I'll be participating in a popup show this weekend in Wantagh! This event was put together by Nick Girimonte & Kristen Ghiraldi and features a bunch of my Long Island Film Club buddies. There will be photographers, graphic designers and even tattoo artists in attendance. It's taking place at the Workshop in Wantagh from 3pm-6pm. 

I'll be selling 4x6 prints, 8x10 prints, framed 8x8 prints, framed 11x14s, and some mini snapshots. I'm also excited to be debuting a special session I'll now be offering. I first did a three-headed composite portrait of my dog for fun one year on Halloween. I photographed her in multiple different positions, looking straight on and looking to the left and right. I put a bunch of different shots into Photoshop and worked some of my editing magic on them and created this:

My nephew always loved this photo of her. He thought it was so funny. Once my sister adopted her dog Hopper, my nephew requested that I do a similar one to give his pup three heads. He even helped me get his attention to get the shots!
Picture
When I decided to do this event, I thought this kind of shot would be a fun thing to offer to my clients. I decided to see if I could make the same kind of thing work with different pets. I asked my boyfriend Connor if I could photograph his two beloved cats Cole and Selena. It turns out it was just as straightforward to do cats than to do dogs! I love how these came out!

Then I had my first session photographing a snake for my friend Dylan! I figured if I could do this shot with a snake, I could do it with any pet! This one was so much fun! Loki did amazing (more shots of this handsome guy to come soon on this blog!)

I'm calling these "Cerberus Sessions". If you're booking a session with me and you're interested in one of these shots, just let me know so that I can make sure I get all the angles I need! 

Get in touch today to get your pet their own three-headed portrait!
