About
Hi lovebirds! I’m an inclusive wedding and engagement photographer who celebrates all couples—regardless of gender, race, sexual orientation, or religion. As a POC and first-generation creative, I’m passionate about creating a respectful, comfortable space and a genuinely positive experience.
I’ve been behind the camera since high school and have spent years honing my craft through intensive classes and workshops. I now run my own studio and specialize in storytelling images that blend candid, photojournalistic moments with high-end editorial and dreamy, nostalgic vibes.
I’ll help you with timeline planning, shot lists, and the little details so you can stay present and stress-free on your day. If my style speaks to you and you’re seriously considering working together, I’d love to hear what you’re envisioning and help bring it to life.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with the incredibly talented photographer, Justina, for our engagement shoot, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the results. From start to finish, Justina exuded a warm and positive energy that put my fiancée and me at ease, making the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free.
Her responsiveness and professionalism in coordinating the shoot were top-notch. Justina listened attentively to our ideas and desires, ensuring that our vision was at the forefront of her creative process. What truly stood out was her ability to capture the specific angles and poses we had in mind, bringing our ideas to life with precision and artistry.
Not only did she execute our ideas flawlessly, but Justina also prompted us with her own creative suggestions, revealing her keen eye for photography. She scouted out breathtaking locations, uncovering hidden gems that served as the perfect backdrop for our shoot. Her attention to detail and commitment to excellence were evident in every shot.
In short, Justina's work goes beyond photography; it's a genuine art form. Her positivity, responsiveness, and ability to turn ordinary moments into extraordinary memories make her a standout photographer. We're incredibly grateful for the beautiful engagement photos she captured, and we can't wait to work with her again in the future. If you're seeking a photographer who not only captures moments but also creates them, look no further than Justina – she's a true gem in the world of photography.

Justina was an absolute godsend for us. Our initially booked photographer ended up bailing on us and we are SO grateful to have found Justina to shoot our wedding. My wife and I say we are lucky things worked out the way they did because Justina exceeded any and all expectations we had. She was so engaging and took a ton of time to understand exactly what we wanted. She even went out of her way to flex her schedule to be available to shoot our celebration. I could not recommend her enough.

Justina was awesome to work with. She was very responsive and extremely thorough each time we spoke. She took tons of pictures throughout the wedding without being invasive. Everyone there commented on how friendly and accommodating she was the entire time. I can not wait to see all the pictures :)!! My wedding was just last week and she will send me a preview soon.

Justina was a pleasure to work with and we can't wait to see our weddingphotos! We definitely recommend working with her!
She went over early to the site where we did our wedding party photos and found beautiful locations for us. She made everyone feel comfortable and was very organized, professional, and creative. It was a beautiful day and we're so glad she was a part of capturing it!

Justina is absolutely amazing! She is extremely responsive, and cares deeply for her clients. We had the pleasure of working with her as our weddingphotographer. As a plus sized couple, we are nervous to take photos, but she made us feel very comfortable and confident. We had to do a last minute venue change due to rain, and she was very helpful. She came early to find new photo locations and brought adorable matching umbrellas to ensure I got my wish for outdoor photos. Overall she was extremely kind, generous, and professional. I would recommend 100%! My only regret is that I wish we used her for engagement photos too.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Clients need to understand the value of photography. The over $15,000 of dollars of equipment we use and need to maintain, as well as the weeks of editing, we deserve every penny. I include travel fees for all bookings further than 15 miles. Any wedding booking further than 60 miles requires a accommodation stipend. DISCOUNT ! any referral made to another family or friend who puts down a deposit gives the customer a 10% off photography service their next booking :)
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
My process typically starts with a consultation, getting to know the client what the project or reason for hiring a photographer and what the process looks like with working with me. Sometimes I need to brainstorm to include creative input and sometimes the client knows what they want. I encourage creating a mood board on Pinterest or sharing photos of inspiration for what they want to create. I make sure details of date/time, location, are locked in and whether styling/props/MUA and necessary details are discussed and found.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have done a few 10 week or 3 day intensive workshops at New England School of Photography for portraiture and studio lighting. I have also attended half a year at Brooks Institute majoring in Photography. Much of my experience is self taught freelancing, collaborations and running a full time studio business, as well as paid online courses on PHLearn.
