The Legacy Behind The Lens
Photography has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. My dad was a photographer, trained by the New York Institute of Photography and the U.S. Air Force, and from the time I was 16, he taught me everything he knew. At 17, I shot my first wedding, dreaming of the day we’d work side by side. After he passed away, I knew I had to carry on what we started. I dove deeper into my training, built my own path, and turned my passion into a career—capturing everything from weddings and events to stock imagery.
One of my biggest surprises was ranking among the top 300 photographers in a worldwide stock imagery company. My focus on Santa portraits opened doors I never expected, leading me to capture families and their most cherished moments. Those experiences shaped the way I photograph today—finding the magic in every moment, big or small.
Now, my wife and I run The Big Event, a full-time studio where we photograph everything from corporate events and headshots to preschools, sports, dance, cheer, gymnastics, and custom shoots. We love working with businesses that need polished, high-quality images just as much as we love working with families who want to freeze time with their little ones.
At the heart of it all, we believe photography is about connection—the joy of a family, the determination of an athlete, the confidence in a professional headshot. We are here to capture the moments that matter most to you.
Let’s create something unforgettable together.
