photographs rooted in connection.

I’m watching constantly. I rarely need you looking at my camera. In fact, I'd usually rather you didn't. I'll give you direction when you need it and bring a little energy when things feel stiff, but my favorite photographs happen when you forget I'm there. I want you to laugh, move, hug too tightly, dance badly, cry freely, and be completely yourselves.
I want you to forget I’m there… until you need me.
What I’ve learned from teaching 5+ years is that people crave to be understood, heard, and cared for. I believe the relationship between us matters. I check in, listen, communicate, and make sure you feel cared for throughout the wedding planning process. Because by the time I show up with my camera, I don't want to feel like a stranger with a camera. I want us to already have that unspoken rhythm where you trust me to know when to step in and when to get out of the way.
Not a stranger with a camera. Someone already in your corner.
I am a NJ based wedding photographer who loves love and everything that comes with celebrating love. Whether it’s 5 or 150 people, any gathering of community celebrating honest and true love is exactly where I’m meant to be.
Hi there, I’m Giselle!
Soft when the moment calls for it. Energetic when you need a little push. Always paying attention.

Even though I just shot with you a few months ago, I can’t wait to book with you again. (Seriously debated traveling from Massachusetts to New Jersey just for a fall mini session with you haha) Everything about our shoot felt perfect. From the initial inquiry email to the gallery delivery, you were entirely invested in the project.

"Giselles growth in her photography is so apparent. Getting to witness it and have her capture our 3 biggest moments in our lives means so much to us. We are so glad we crossed paths for the beginning and we cannot to continue to have her shoot all that is to come. She is a beautiful human that is so warm, able to conduct a room yet seamlessly blend in to take the most stunning “candid” and “raw” photos."
I’m a true Jersey girl—born in Jersey City, raised in Bayonne, and currently living with my fiancé Sami and our four-animal “zoo” (two dogs, two cats, and a camera roll to prove it).
My love for photography started early. Long before smartphones, I bought a Nikon Coolpix for my 8th-grade graduation and spent the school dance documenting a room full of 14-year-olds. I’ve always been drawn to light, design, and intentional spaces—why not capture the beauty already there?
Whether I’m hosting dinner at home or out with friends, every interaction feels like a scene worth remembering. That’s how I approach wedding photography: it should feel as warm and natural as being surrounded by the people who love you most.
I can’t imagine a life without photos. I think of my late Tita Cora and the photo albums of us together in the kitchen, or my childhood friends who will soon stand beside me at my own wedding. We keep these photos because these moments deserve to be remembered—and that's exactly what I want to capture for you.
