Documentary Family Photography | Yonkers & Westchester County

 

More information about pricing and what to expect

 

I see photography as storytelling, not posing. Whether we’re outdoors in nature or in my calm studio, I work intuitively and gently so your session feels relaxed—and so your images feel true to life, not forced.

I help families preserve real connection, not stiff smiles.

Frequently Asked Questions

How would you describe your photography and editing style?

My approach is documentary and emotion-focused. I gently guide when needed, but I prioritize natural interactions over stiff posing.

Editing is clean and true-to-life—natural skin tones, soft contrast, and minimal retouching—so your images feel honest, timeless, and reflective of real moments.

What if my children don’t cooperate?

That’s completely okay—and expected.

My sessions are designed with children in mind, allowing space for play, movement, and breaks. Some of the most meaningful images happen in between moments, not when children are perfectly still. There’s no pressure for perfection—just connection.

What should we wear for our session?

Once your session is booked, you’ll receive a family session guide with simple styling tips, color recommendations, and guidance on how to coordinate without matching. The goal is to keep everything timeless, comfortable, and true to your family—not overly styled.

How far in advance should we book?

I recommend booking 4–6 weeks in advance, especially for weekend availability. Because I limit the number of family sessions I accept each month to ensure a personalized experience, availability can fill quickly.
