Hey, I'm Emily! 

Photographer, memory-maker, and here to capture your story.

​I'm a San Diego-based photographer with a love for capturing people, their stories, and the little moments that make life special. I've been photographing professionally for over six years, and one of my favorite things about what I do is getting to meet so many different people and help them preserve moments they'll want to look back on for years to come.

Whether we're celebrating your graduation, capturing your growing family, documenting your love story, or creating portraits that make you feel confident and like yourself, my goal is always the same: to make you feel comfortable, have fun, and walk away with photos you absolutely love.

My approach

I know being in front of a camera can feel a little awkward sometimes (trust me, I get it!). That's why I want every session to feel less like a photoshoot and more like spending time with a friend. You don't have to know how to pose, worry about what to do with your hands, or show up knowing exactly what you want. I'll guide you along the way so you can relax, be yourself, and enjoy the experience.

I believe the best photos happen when you feel comfortable enough to let your personality shine. The in-between moments, the genuine laughter, the little glances, and the perfectly imperfect details are often the ones that end up meaning the most.

I photograph people the way they want to be remembered — relaxed, confident, and genuinely themselves.

A little more about me

I'm originally from New Jersey and made the move to sunny San Diego in 2021! I love getting to photograph people in all the beautiful places this city has to offer, from the beach to the gardens and everything in between. I'm always happy to help you find a location that fits your vision and feels like you.

When I'm not behind the camera, you can usually find me exploring San Diego, spending time with the people I love, or dreaming up new creative ideas. Photography has given me the opportunity to connect with so many amazing people, and I'm so grateful every time someone trusts me to capture a moment in their life.

I'd love to meet you!

Whether you're celebrating a big milestone, documenting a season of life, or simply wanting photos that feel like you, I'd love to be part of it.

Let's make something beautiful together. 

Your story deserves to be remembered.​

Thanks for stopping by, I can't wait to work with you!
