CNY Photography & Videography
You Deserve to Be Fully Present on Your Wedding Day—Not Spent Feeling Like You're on a Movie Set
Your wedding day shouldn't feel like an endless 10-hour photo shoot. It should feel like the absolute best party of your life—surrounded by the people who love you most, taking in every unscripted laugh, tear, and dance floor moment as it naturally unfolds.
My goal as your wedding photographer and videographer is simple: to create timeless, vibrant images and films that capture the authentic energy of your day while keeping everything relaxed, fun, and completely stress-free.
Real Moments Over Stiff Posing
When you look back at your wedding photos decades from now, you shouldn't just remember standing in a line posing. You should remember exactly how it felt when the ceremony doors opened, the unscripted laughs with your bridal party, and the wild energy of your reception.
Here is what you can count on when we work together:
- Unobtrusive & Natural: No rigid, awkward poses. I guide family formals quickly and smoothly so you can get back to your party, using light, natural prompts that let you and your partner just be yourselves.
- Mastery Over Any Lighting: From bright noon outdoor ceremonies to dark reception halls and candlelit dance floors, two decades of commercial studio lighting experience means your photos will look crisp, rich, and beautifully balanced in any environment.
- A Calm, Grounding Presence: I keep the timeline moving effortlessly behind the scenes and anticipate moments before they happen so you never have to worry about what comes next.
Behind the Lens
Before specializing in wedding storytelling, I spent 20 years as a commercial advertising and public relations photographer in Syracuse. While that background built my technical foundation in lighting and visual composition, it was second-shooting my first wedding that stole my heart.
The raw emotion, fast-paced energy, and genuine honor of documenting once-in-a-lifetime celebrations made wedding photography my true calling. Today, it is the sole focus of my business.
Outside the Studio
When I don't have a camera in hand, you'll usually find me:
- Staying active as a certified personal trainer.
- Spending quality time with my partner, Jules (a master social worker whose daily empathy inspires everything I do).
- Unwinding and recharging on getaway trips to the Adirondacks.
