q&a

hi, how are you?

very well, thanks for asking! how are you?

Do you shoot film?

Yes! Standard packages are digital only but if you want the real thing, that extra lush, nostalgic texture, you can add on 35mm film to your package.

What areas do you cover?

I'm NYC-based part of the year; south-east asia and San Francisco-based at other times. I'm open to travel.

How far in advance should I book?

For the best availability, I recommend booking 2-3 months in advance, especially for peak season events. That said, you can always try your luck for a more last-minute event. Shoot me a message!

What's your pricing structure?

Pricing depends on factors like the length of your event, how quickly you want your photos, and the deliverables requested. Beyond the time spent shooting, I invest hours in carefully selecting the best images - removing blinks, unflattering angles, and duplicates - so you don't have to sift through thousands yourself. Each chosen photo is then edited for color, lighting, and composition to ensure a polished, cohesive look. Finally, I create a beautifully curated gallery that tells the full story of your event, making it easy to relive and share. The result is a collection of stunning, high-quality images you'll cherish forever.

How many photos will we receive?

I promise you will receive at least 40 - 50 images per hour—but usually more! The exact number delivered depends on the number of guests, the energy of the event, and how much activity is happening but I have not yet had any complaint about the number of photos delivered.

What types of events do you photograph?

I specialize in wedding celebrations, cocktail parties, gallery openings, corporate events, art shows, intimate gatherings, nightlife, and soirées of all sorts.

What's your photography style?

After spending years in the serenity of the darkroom, I lean toward a classic film-noir look, documentary in style. My approach is candid and editorial, elevated but never stiff. Artful but fun. Think glamorous, high-energy party frames that feel spontaneous yet effortlessly chic. Each shot is vibrant, editorial-quality, and full of life, making every event look like a magazine spread.

Do you provide same-day edits?

Yes, I offer next day social media previews for immediate posting, followed by a complete gallery delivered within 1-3 weeks based on your selected package and coverage hours. Rush delivery of the gallery can be accommodated as well.

Are you LGBT+ friendly?

Absolutely. I shoot all people regardless of ethnicity, age, race, class, gender identity, disability, body shape or size, culture, or religion.
