The best photographs come from a beautiful experience. I’m here to support both - the day you live and the images that help you remember it.
ABOUT JO
I earned my BFA in photography and grew up studying both editorial portraiture and documentary storytelling, a blend that taught me to shape light and composition while staying attuned to real emotion. I find beauty in that balance and it continues to guide my work today.

Hi, I'm JO
ARTIST, PHOTOGRAPHER, TRAVELER, & QUIET OBSERVER OF THE IN-BETWEEN MOMENTS.
There’s a quiet kind of magic in the unguarded moments — the tenderness, the spark, the way people light up around the ones they love. That’s the beauty I’m always looking for.
I grew up on the south shore of Long Island, where I learned to care deeply about things like good bagels and better pizza. These days, I’m rooted in Golden, Colorado with my partner and our three wild and wonderful animals. My favorite kind of weekend usually includes a trailhead and a sky full of stars. Otherwise, you’ll find me enjoying a slow dinner outside with people I love or tending to my beloved but high-maintenance dahlia garden.
MY WHY
There’s a certain energy to each celebration—an undercurrent of emotion, movement, and meaning—that pulls me in every time.
I guide with a soft hand and observe with a storyteller’s eye, knowing that the most meaningful images often come from the space where you feel fully yourselves. I’m continually inspired by the authenticity that surfaces when people are present with each other, the fleetingness of beauty, and the natural way moments unfold when everyone feels at ease.
Whether your celebration is sprawling and lively or quiet and intimate, I document with care, crafting images that feel both artful and emotive. Photographs that hold it all are the heart of my work.
