About
For the last 15 years, I’ve used photography to preserve beauty, love, and raw emotion. What I love most is knowing in twenty years, when looking back on these images, you will be transported to a moment that feels like comfort, excitement, and deep, overwhelming love.
Photography is not just what I do; it’s how I communicate.
It’s my way of telling stories, capturing feelings, and documenting the most important moments of life.
It’s my diary of the world.
Whether we’re wandering NYC streets, sneaking away for an elopement, or sitting quietly in your kitchen with coffee and morning light, my goal is always the same: to make you feel at ease and capture what’s real.
These images aren’t just for now. They’re for the future version of you who will one day need to remember exactly how this season felt.
And I’d be honored to help you keep it.

So glad I found Caroline. My family traveled to NYC and hired her as a family photographer. She was responsive and knowledgeable about locations best for families. She recommended Dumbo and it was an excellent place. She made us very comfortable in taking photos paying attention to every detail and gave us longer shooting time more than enough! My boys were done in half the time she was ready for us :). Most importantly, pictures came out beautifully. All the photos are in warm and vintage colors in dumbo as I requested and my boys and husband love them! So happy we hired Caroline and highly recommend for a professional photography

We hired Caroline for maternity photos, and I could not recommend her more. Leading up to the shoot, she was incredibly easy to coordinate with. She helped plan the location and logistics, and even helped my wife choose her outfit.
At the shoot, Caroline went above and beyond. She made sure we felt comfortable throughout the process, helped direct poses, found perfect candid moments, and never made us feel rushed. And of course, the photos turned out beyond our expectations. Normally, you hope for maybe 10 great shots, but I’ve lost track of how many have become our favourites.
She captures both people and the setting with such beautiful style. We will definitely be hiring her again for family photos in the near future.

Caroline was amazing! In addition to being professional and patient, she was friendly and engaging. She went above and beyond to get the photos we were hoping for in the location of our choosing. She was able to wrangle our 2 young daughters as well as our 2 dogs into photos we will cherish. Caroline captured our love and joy as well as our silly sides in both posed and candid pictures. Our entire family felt comfortable and confident with Caroline behind the lens.

Caroline was absolutely amazing for our family photo session. She came to our home and instantly made everyone feel comfortableespecially our kids. She has such a warm, calm presence and was incredible at letting the kids have fun and feel in control while still keeping everything moving smoothly and professionally.She came fully prepared with creative ideas, didnt waste a moment, and somehow captured the most beautiful, genuine moments. On top of that, she delivered our photos so quickly! We are beyond happy with the results and would highly recommend Caroline to anyone looking for a family photographer.
