This is an invitation to slow down. To a softer kind of photography that values honesty over performance. We take our time, we breathe, and we let the day unfold as it actually lives. I’m here to notice what’s already there and reflect it back with care.
New york City Hall Wedding photographer.
for couples who want something real.
This space is for City Hall weddings, park elopements, intimate celebrations, and lifestyle sessions that don’t require a big production. Days that are small on purpose. Centered around your people, your rhythm, and what actually matters to you.
Built with queer, BIPOC, and interracial couples at the center, the experience is grounded in care, trust, and room to breathe. You don’t need to know how to pose or perform for the camera. I guide when needed, then step back so you can stay connected to each other.
Nothing forced.
Nothing overproduced.
Just honest movement, conversation, and moments that unfold naturally.
Most couples I work with aren’t dreaming about a huge wedding. They want something that feels grounded and true to the life they’ve already built together. A calm day. Their favorite people. A little movement, a little laughter, maybe dessert before dancing. The kind of photos that bring them back to the feeling of being there together.

Intimate Weddings

"Stef was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. Not only did she capture stunning photos that perfectly encapsulate the joy and love of our special day, but she also went above and beyond to support us during a challenging political climate. As a queer couple, we were so grateful that Stef connected us with a community of inclusive, LGBTQ-affirming vendors who made us feel safe and celebrated."
— Mel & Blanca
"Stef was the absolute perfect photographer for our courthouse wedding and intimate family dinner afterward. From the moment we met her, she made us feel completely comfortable and genuinely excited for the day. Nothing ever felt forced or overly posed, which made the entire experience feel so natural and authentic. Almost all of our photos were candid, capturing the real emotions and little moments throughout the day. The photos turned out absolutely stunning and captured the emotion, excitement, and love of the entire day perfectly." — Tati & Keith
"Stef was professional and also clearly passionate about city hall weddings and elopements. We immediately felt very comfortable with her. We've never had our picture professionally taken before but she was able to get us to be ourselves and captured our personalities! It was also such a relief to work with someone who has experiencing photographing people with different skin colors. We got our sneak preview pictures that day and we LOVED them! They were perfect. They felt like us and really captured who we are individually and as a couple." — Amanda & Pranit
"From our first conversation with Stef, we knew we'd found the right photographer for our elopement. She listened to what we wanted and made us feel at ease in front of the camera. Stef respected our time and didn't push us to do endless photo sessions, yet she still captured beautiful candid moments that tell our story perfectly. We felt supported and understood throughout the entire process, and the final photos exceeded what we imagined." — Isabel & Jason
