I'm Tricia
I’m the photographer who will crack a joke to break the ice, remind you to breathe if things feel awkward, and get genuinely excited when the light is good.
I’m not into stiff poses or forced smiles. I care about real moments. The ones that happen in between. The laughs you don’t plan. The stuff that actually feels like you.
If you’re worried you’re “bad at photos,” you’re exactly who I love working with. Most of my clients say that. Almost all of them end up surprised by how comfortable they feel.
A Little Background
I grew up around cameras in my dad’s studio, so photography has always been part of my world. I later earned a degree in Visual Media and spent 17 years working as a hairstylist.
That experience matters more than people realize.
After nearly two decades behind the chair, I have a sharp eye for detail and zero tolerance for someone looking bad in photos. I will watch flyaways, fix hair between shots, and make sure you still look like yourself from start to finish. I notice everything.
I’ve since returned to school for my Fine Arts degree in Photography and am finishing my program at Moravian University. Going back later in life has sharpened my perspective and pushed my work in a way that feels grounded and intentional.
The Personal Side
I’m a runner. Not in a motivational quote way. More in a this-is-how-I-clear-my-head way. Trails when I can. Treadmill when I have to.
I’m a romantic at heart and someone who believes in small things done well. Good coffee. Summer nights. Comfort food. Rainy movie days. Being outside whenever possible. I collect shoes and handbags because the right one can change your mood.
I’m also a mom to an amazing son, which has shaped how I move through the world more than anything else. It’s made me patient, observant, and deeply aware of how fast moments pass.
I’ve experienced two weddings of my own, so I understand the emotions, the pressure, and how quickly the day goes. I know when to step in and when to disappear. When to guide and when to let things unfold.
If you’re looking for a photographer who pays attention, keeps you looking good, and feels more like a steady presence than a production crew, we’ll get along just fine.
