I'm all about the not-so-posed-but-posed look. I'll help direct you as needed every step of the way. Generally, I set you up in some great light, tell you to get in real close, and just have fun with each other. It's seriously that simple.

I believe in natural, fun, low-key, REAL, in-the-moment moments in my photography.

wedding + portrait photographer

Clare was born and raised in Albany, New York and services her hometown + surrounding areas for all your photo needs.

Clare makes a mean buffalo chicken dip (ask me for my recipe!), is terrified of outer space yet loves weird sci-fi shows like The Expanse, and loves lots of color, the Buffalo Bills, and all types of looove.

When she's not running around photographing, you can find her sipping (too much) coffee, messing around with a new creative project, or snuggling with her husband Vincent and their two cuddly fur babes, Minnie (a beagle mutt) and Chewy (a Dutch lop bunny).

The gal behind the lens
and always #1 in your fan club.

Born, raised & still living in upstate New York

I grew up on the best street EVER and after not living home for nearly 8 years, I am back on the same block. Kinda crazy.

And i live 9 houses away from my childhood home

Married at 27, our wedding was the reason I got in to wedding photography in the first place!

we've been together since we were 18

This might actually be quite obvious, but in case it's not, now you know! I LOVE me some fresh-cut bright & beautiful blooms.
