Broad Collective and the Power of Women + Community - NYC Branding Photographer

I love capturing driven and impactful women especially ones who level up other women professionally, financially and personally.  While I empower women to feel confident in themselves visually, cofounders Erin Keating (podcaster of Hotter Than Ever podcast and former television executive) and Sarah Gallagher Trombley (former Snapchat executive) are empowering women through their new company Broad Collective, a membership network for professional women pivoting to self-employment in midlife.

Broad Collective’s mission is to support members in starting and scaling businesses that require strategic content creation to promote their expertise, build audiences and grow revenue.  Broad Collective is designed to be both inspiring and practical, focused on strategy, support, techniques and tools to support women’s entrepreneurship ventures.  Plus, it is a dynamic forum where driven women can connect, can support and can grow their network together.

If you are a woman in midlife contemplating the existential reality of your career - or if you already work for yourself - lean on Broad Collective to get you and your business to grow.

Congratulations are in order for Erin and Sarah!  They are doing such inspirational work with Broad Collective!  And, in my opinion, their branding photos look beyond fabulous.  The images are full of personality and provide a visual connection to who they are individually and as cofounders.

Family Fun at The Little Red Lighthouse, Fort Washington Park - NYC Family Photographer

Celebration in the City - Bat Mitzvah Event Photographer

I love photographing a fun bat mitzvah! And this one was epic. I always like to, first, photograph a private session of the with the 13 year old away from all the craziness of the special day. This sweet session allows us to get to know each other and it allows me to capture special portraits that the family can use in a curated slideshow and for the parents to remember this memorable age. Then comes the service - a milestone endeavor to achieve. Next comes the celebration…a time to party with loved ones - family and friends. It’s an emotional ride and I’m there for it all. And with this family….its always super lively, fun-filled and full of love.
