I went out to photograph street style during my first-ever New York Fashion Week! It’s funny, going to school and being in the city for over ten years now, I was always aware of NYFW since NYC is a fashion capital but never thought twice about it. I have passed by the venues without a […]
Both the Bethesda Terrace and Fountain are some of the most iconic locations in Central Park to do a photoshoot. It’s one of the first spots in New York City I recommend because it’s recognizable. My amazing client and her husband flew in from Dallas, Texas because they wanted to celebrate their one-year wedding anniversary. […]

Skyscrapers are a dime a dozen here, so which one is the best observatory in NYC to take pictures from? It feels like there is literally a competition for which building has the best experience and views. Each year a new attraction is popping up. There are the classics like the Empire State Building, and […]
