ABOUT ME
Hey There, I'm Darren
I genuinely care about capturing important moments for couples and families, because I'm living these seasons too.
More than ten years with my wife, before we got engaged. Inspired by our fall foliage proposal, our Seneca Lake wedding, and years of traveling with a camera in my bag.
Now that we are building our own family, I've shot countless rolls of film in my personal life, because I know firsthand how fast this life goes by when you're not paying attention.
When I rediscovered shooting on film, I started building intentional memories, one roll at a time. I'd love to be a part of capturing your moments with that same attention.


WHAT WORKING TOGETHER FEELS LIKE
WHO IS THIS FOR?
You'll look back at these.
We're a good fit if you've felt like the real moments are slipping by, and you want someone to actually catch them.
If you want photos you print and hang up, not just ones that live in your camera roll.
If you want to have something that looks and feels real, rather than something perfectly airbrushed and clean.
That's who this is for.
