My work has been featured in publications such as The New York Times and Wired, and I have photographed over 100 authors annually at the AWP Conference.I prioritize client collaboration, offering professional hair and makeup services, multiple outfit changes, and onsite image review to ensure every session meets individual needs. My commitment to excellence is reflected in my portfolio, which includes portraits for authors, couples, and branding sessions for businesses. I serve the Greater Boston area and am available for both studio and on-location shoots.
