About Jasmine ...


Hey There!!  Thanks so much for visiting my blog. I'm a lifestyle photographer in New York specializing in Weddings, Engagements and Portraits. I love to make people look and feel beautiful and I use my camera to capture the beauty in everything and everyone I work with. I absolutely adore photographing couples in love - whether its for a Wedding, an Engagement Session or an Anytime Session, just because, well ... you're in L-O-V-E!

I live in Queens with my fiance Aloysius and our 9 month old kitty-cat Jenny. Aloysius and I met in high school 10 years ago and now we're planning our own 2011 wedding. *time flies*  This is a huge year for me! I'm marrying my best friend,  the love of my life, and taking great strides to turn my dreams of photography into a reality. I'm dreaming big - yes. This blog will document snip-its of my personal life, and my professional journey as a photographer.  My hope is as I share my passions, thoughts and experiences with you, you'll better get to know the person behind the camera. 

If you're stopping by to read this and you're looking for someone to photograph your love, capture your wedding day, or just looking for someone to unleash your beauty. I'd love to be your photographer. So please, take a look around and get to know me a little better!
