Thank you so much for stopping by. I am here for the art and the human connections. Photograhy has been a passion of mine for over a decade now. In the past 5 years I have had the pleasure of specializing in elopements and weddings. I not only love the photography aspect of this work but the friendships and connections that come as well.
I love people and all of their unique stories and experiences, its a not a bad job haha. I shoot both digital and 35mm analog Film and specialize in photojournalistic photography. In the past 5 years I have had the pleasure in specializing in fine art elopements and weddings. I cannot speak any more highly of my elopement photographer, Gianna.

This guide Has a lot of information from my personal experience shooting over 400 ceremonies over the last 4 years and also some research I've done for you so you don't have to do it yourself, I got you! There are rumors floating that city hall is reopening! Wooop! definitely go to Project Cupid for more information.
This is a great question. You should hire me because I seriously love what I do, above all else photography is an artistic and creative passion of mine, and has been for the last 15 years. In addition to photography I have dedicated a large portion my energy to working with people, and also attend NYU graduate school for counseling.

My husband and I absolutely loved working with Gianna for our recent vow renewal in Brooklyn! She is a true artist and visionary, and the images captured from our special day are ones that we’ll cherish forever. I highly recommend working with Gianna - she is such a kind, talented soul!

Gianna photographed our August 2021 wedding at Frankies 457 Spuntino in Brooklyn. We loved working with Gianna, and recommend her to anyone planning their wedding.
Gianna was a pleasure to work with, and captured our wedding day perfectly. Her work really stood out from the many (MANY) generic, "wedding-y" galleries we looked through in researching photographers, and her photography is beautiful and natural. When received our final gallery from Gianna, looking through it made us feel like we were experiencing our wedding all over again. Everyone looks happy, young, cool, and delighted, which,

Choosing Gianna to take our photos was the best decision we made for our wedding day. My husband and I both were nervous about feeling comfortable during our wedding photos but also knew we wanted awesome photos as a gift to ourselves. Gianna made both happen. Not only did she make us feel at ease, but the photos are amazing! I find treasures every time I go through our album. Additionally, she had great suggestions for locations, especially on a rainy and cold day. Gianna is a gem and you cannot go wrong with her as your photographer!

Gianna was incredible to shoot with. We wanted to re do our wedding pictures after having a bad experience with our original photographer and she stepped up and then some! She gave us gorgeous pictures, had great ideas for photos that were natural but still felt formal and beautiful. She also was awesome with communication and made sure we were in the loop every step of the way. The turn around for photos was incredible too and i love having the gallery access so we can order prints to hang! Cannot recommend anymore more!!!

Gianna is a master of her craft & an all around incredible person who we are *so* grateful to have gotten to work with. Planning to have a tiny wedding ceremony in 2020 was a rollercoaster, but the stars really aligned when we found Gianna. Her photojournalistic style is so special; she captured us, our day, and the neighborhood we love so beautifully. Our wedding was very intimate, and Gianna fit right in & made us all feel at ease. It was a privilege to work with such a passionate and talented artist whose unique vision we could trust implicitly. If you’re looking for a photographer who will

Having Gianna photograph our elopement was the best decision! She is an amazing talent. We were worried about feeling awkward and having “posed photos” take away from the authenticity of our day, but she struck the perfect balance of candid shots and instruction to capture our love and the beauty around us.

I am blown away by my experience working with Gianna. From top to bottom, she is truly a gem. Our initial interview went so smoothly, and she made both my fiancé and I feel so comfortable from the very beginning. Her energy is incredibly calming and she really understands the dynamics of her role. I can't even begin to express how blown away we were with our engagement shoot, her unique artistry is unmatched! HIGHLY recommended, lovely lovely lady.

Gianna shot our COVID wedding in Brooklyn Bridge Park. She was easy to work with (put up with my emailing back and forth leading up to the day). She is a true artist. The photos look like works or art not cheesy staged wedding photos. We loved Gianna and would recommend her to everyone!

Gianna is really the best of the best! My photos are beautiful and not only capture our day but the vibe of the city which is exactly what we wanted. She was also an extremely calming presence throughout the hustle and bustle of the day with many unforeseen guests and excursions.
I highly recommend her for capturing your wedding/engagement. You'll end up with a bunch of photos that not only capture the day but bring all the feelings back every time you look at it.

We could not be more happy with our experience and end-result of our photos from our Wedding Day. Gianna was a pleasure to work with, asked questions to learn more about what you wanted, what your vision was and then magically knew exactly how to take what you wanted and bring to life in spectacular photos. Our photos feel like a small journey of different locations capturing beautiful elements of NYC.

Gianna truly made our day! She was flexible, fun and most importantly, a fabulous photographer. In addition to making me look great in the pictures, she made sure to highlight every important aspect of our "micro wedding", from the LES streets outside our venue (my brother's art gallery), to the beautiful chuppah my artist mother-in-law made for us.
My family commented on how much they loved her, even asking if perhaps she might be willing to join our clan permanently. I am known for making silly faces in photos and my husband is known for refusing to take pictures. Gianna patiently coaxed us
