I'm so thrilled you're here considering me to be your photographer! Here's a few fun facts about me & my love for family + senior portraits.
I began my portrait photography business at 17 years old. Over the last nine years in business I have been able to photograph family and senior portraits from Union, Morris, Bergen and Ocean County and service other areas of the beautiful garden state. I now have the pleasure of serving my business in South Jersey only and I'm located in Mays Landing, New Jersey.
I'm a wife and a cat mom to two crazy boys, Salem & Comet and 100% a jersey girl. While photography is where my heart is, I have also been working in antiques since I was 15 years old and I've gotten to see some really historical artifacts and art over the years. Russian is my first language and I speak in ASL as well!
I always have a fresh set of flowers in my office, a candle lit on my desk and my camera in my hand and ready to photograph the next adventure in my life! In the rare moments where I do leave my camera at home, you can find me making candles, playing with my cats + playing video games, watching hockey or a movie with Chris Evans in it.
I can't wait to plan your session with you and get to know you better! Send me a message and let's get started!

"Paula and her team are wonderful!! Not only does Paula capture such great photos, but she is extremely organized and terrific at communicating, from booking to answering questions! During our family session my 4 year old was very shy, we went into it with the thought we may not get tons of shots of him. Paula gave him the space he needed and time to warm up to her, once he did she was able to get some of the best pictures of him! I would highly recommend Paula to everyone!"

"Paula was excellent during our family photos! The beach we originally agreed upon actually ended up being closed due to weather and she made accommodations with no notice. She made sure everyone was comfortable and that we got absolutely everything we wanted. Half way through our session, our 8 year old told us, “this is the best day ever!”"

"Paula did a family photo shoot for us and we absolutely loved both her and her work. She went above and beyond to find the perfect locations ahead of time. She kept track of the weather in the days leading up to the shoot to ensure we would have gorgeous weather the day of. She came prepared the day of, with endless options for poses. Paula is extremely responsive through messages from the time I reached out to book a shoot, until the end, to ensure I was satisfied with the photos she took."
