Let’s create photos that truly reflect who you are! You deserve images that capture authentic, true-to-you moments—not those perfectly posed, cookie-cutter shots (though I’ll admit, a few of those can be great for the grandparents’ mantle). I want to give you photographs that celebrate your time together in a way that feels real, personal, and uniquely yours.
Chill vibes, good times & photos that make your heart happy
Pennsylvania wedding photographer
You are NOT just a Business Transaction.
your priorities are my priorities.
I love windswept hair and ugly crying.
Your wedding is not for MY portfolio
MY Core VALUES AS your WEDDING Photographer
In recent years, I've focused on blending art and connection in my work. I create a relaxed environment where you can fully be yourselves, allowing me to take a natural, observational approach to documenting your love story. Once you’re comfortable, I focus on the artistic details—lighting, composition, color, and contrast—to craft timeless images.
I thrive working with laid-back, non-traditional couples who want a celebration filled with meaning, love, and a bit of adventure. If you’re not afraid of windswept hair, a little dirt on your shoes, and a wedding day as unique as your love, we’re going to be a great fit!
Capturing Your Love Story with Meaning & Art
Your wedding is not about MY portfolio or social media, My focus is always on you and your day not the BTS for my brand.
will take the real unfiltered raw moments over any perfectly posed airbrushed photoshop photo all day everyday
You dictate what photos are important to you- the family formals, the guest interactions, the impeccably planned details we can build a timeline and make a plan that works for YOU
Building a real, genuine relationship with you matters. Our relationship doesn’t end once your gallery reaches your inbox, so be prepared for me to check in and ask about your dogs or want to meet up for a drink

There is simply not enough words to describe how amazing Carolyn is! She is a great communicator, wonderful with children, has a fantastic vision, and is all around a fabulous person. Her style was exactly what we were looking for and we couldn't be happier with our photos!! Photography was our 'big splurge' and I cannot stress how happy we are with our choice.
“all around a fabulous person.”

Carolyn was amazing to work with! From start to finish, she created an enjoyable and relaxed environment and was extremely easy to communicate/coordinate with. Her calm gentle presence helped us to feel relaxed during our engagement shoot and wedding day. She provides enough direction while also sitting back and allowing things to be natural and candid. We were BLOWN away with her photos and are so happy we chose her to capture the memories of our special day. If you can, you should work with Carolyn!

When my husband and I were first looking for wedding photographers, I remember how overwhelming the options were - especially since I’m extremely indecisive! We somehow came across Carolyn’s website/social media and we’re so glad we did! Carolyn was so easy to work with and worked closely with us on the timeline and shots we wanted to capture. The day-of, we worked with Carolyn and her second photographer who were both so lovely, thoughtful and fun to be around. My husband and I haven’t ever gotten professional shots taken, and they were great with helping us pose and at the same time took amazing candid shots. They both really went above and beyond our expectations - and the photos came out AMAZING. And bonus points for them coming prepared - Carolyn with scissors for all of my bridesmaids who needed to cut the tags off their dresses and a sewing kit which came in handy for my husband who somehow ripped his pants while taking portrait shots. We HIGHLY recommend working with Carolyn!
“ ...so lovely, thoughtful and fun to be around.”

A: II’ve been a professional photographer for 14+ years and a full-time wedding photographer for 7+ years. I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Rochester Institute of Technology, specializing in advertising photography—a discipline that, like wedding photography, is all about storytelling. I’ve photographed 200+ weddings and counting!
Q: How long have you been a photographer?
A: My style is candid, documentary, and storytelling-driven, with a touch of fine art influence. I focus on genuine emotions, unscripted moments, and the little details that make your day uniquely yours. I guide when needed but rarely force stiff poses
—my goal is to capture how your day feels, not just how it looks.
Q: What is your photography style?
A: II know you're excited to relive your wedding day, which is why I send a generous selection of sneak peeks shortly after! These are perfect for sharing with family and friends while I carefully edit the full gallery.
Every wedding includes thousands of moments, and I take the time to go through each one, selecting the best and ensuring they are edited with the care they deserve. My editing process is detailed and designed to maintain the natural, candid feel of your day while keeping colors, lighting, and storytelling consistent.
Because of this, full galleries are delivered in approximately 4 months—a timeline that ensures your photos are truly polished and timeless. Trust me, it’s worth the wait!
Q: How long does it take to receive the photos?
A: our wedding day is incredibly important, and I take my commitment to you seriously. In the rare case that I am unable to attend due to illness or an emergency, I have a network of trusted, experienced photographers who I can call upon to step in. These photographers are familiar with my style and work closely with me, so you can rest assured you'll receive high-quality coverage. If I need to make a substitution, I will communicate with you as soon as possible to ensure you're comfortable with the arrangement. I always aim to provide the best experience for my couples, no matter what.
Q: What happens if you're sick or can't make it?
FAQ
I believe in keeping things simple and stress-free—starting with pricing. Weddings are a big investment, and the last thing I want is for you to feel unsure about costs or surprised by hidden fees. That’s why I’m upfront about my pricing from the start. No awkward conversations, no guessing games—just clear, transparent numbers so you can focus on what really matters: celebrating your day.
Wedding Guide
