about me

I'm a photographer, a storyteller, and a documentarian. I'm a lover of love.  I'm a native New Yorker who loves this city fiercely. The buzz of energy that inherently emanates from each avenue fuels my creative campaigns both within the city and abroad. Nothing brings me more joy than to bear witness to the numerous facets of your love and connection.
Over time, my goals have surpassed taking photographs and naturally evolved into a desire to design a visual narrative of your day.  To bring the connection that runs so deeply between you to the front of every moment. To capture each aspect of your story with intention and honesty. To document all the manifestations of your love.

Angelisa is the best!! The elopement photos she took of us are better than we could have ever imagined. Neither my husband nor I had ever done a professional photoshoot before, so we were a little nervous about how it would go. Angelisa was incredibly kind and guided us in a way that made everything feel fun and exciting.

She captured moments in multiple spots around Manhattan so beautifully. Her photos truly reflect the movement and happiness of the day, and every photo brings us right back to those moments. Her photos followed the story of our day which is something so special to us! She had polaroids ready for us at the end of the session which have turned into a memory in itself, we LOVE them!!!
We’re so grateful to have these memories photographed so perfectly. If you’re looking for someone who will make you feel at ease and capture your day in the most authentic way, Angelisa is absolutely the photographer to choose!

We couldn’t be happier with our elopement photos!

Angelisa was absolutely amazing from start to finish. Leading up to the day, she was professional, friendly, and super supportive. On the day, we were both pretty nervous since we’d never done any kind of photoshoot before, but Angelisa guided us with poses and direction in such a natural and comforting way. She made the whole experience feel so relaxed and fun. On the day Angelisa also acted as our witness and guided us through the extended license process. The photos themselves are stunning and perfectly capture the magic of our day. We can’t recommend her enough!

No words can justify how truly incredible Angelisa is!

Her attention to detail and the way she takes time to really get to know her clients is something I’ve never experienced before and didn’t realize how much I would appreciate. She makes you feel completely comfortable, and the photos come out absolutely breathtaking yet effortless. Still in owe with my pictures and wish this experience to everyone.

Angelisa was truly a dream to work with.

From the very beginning, she cared about every detail and made us feel so supported — not only as our photographer but also as a coordinator and a friend. We had four Zoom meetings to plan our vision, and she even did a full walk-through of the church, LIC piers, and venue a month before to make sure the day would flow perfectly. Her thoughtfulness, organization, and genuine heart made all the difference. I honestly cannot imagine anyone else capturing our wedding — she went above and beyond in every way, and we are forever grateful!!!
