About me
Hello, my name is Mike, and welcome to my website! Based in Northern New Jersey, I’ve spent the past 15 years capturing the beauty of weddings, events, and family moments.
What began as a hobby—mainly capturing landscapes and wildlife—took a new direction when my wife noticed just how much I was spending on photography equipment. With a gentle nudge and a subtle suggestion (as only a wife can), she encouraged me to start making some money with my passion, leading to my very first paid job.
All these years later, my passion for photography remains as strong as ever, and I’m incredibly grateful to have worked with such wonderful couples and families. I’m proud to say that the majority of my clients are repeat customers, along with the many referrals they kindly provide.
I would love the opportunity to discuss your vision with you, and I hope we can work together to capture the memories that matter most. Your unique story deserves to be beautifully documented, and I’m excited to help bring it to life through my photography.
My Photography Style-
My photography style is a combination of lifestyle and photojournalistic. While I often pose subjects for a classic feel, I believe the most captivating images come from natural moments that truly capture the essence of the event and the people I am photographing.
A lifestyle photographer is going to be moderately involved in the day; taking the time to set up a shot to be beautiful like a fine art photographer, but from there, allowing things to happen naturally, like a photojournalistic photographer would.
If this is the style that you're looking for, let's chat and hopefully work together to capture these memories for years to come.
