introducing donovan
You made it.
And I’m genuinely stoked you’re here.
If you’re planning a day that feels like you—unfiltered, a little wild, and full of heart—you’re in the right place. I’m not just showing up with a camera. I’m showing up for you—to document the big feelings, the quiet glances, the chaos, the joy, and every in-between that makes your story unforgettable.
From getting ready in the soft morning light to two-steppin’ into the night, I’ve got you. You’ll look incredible. You’ll feel even better. And you’ll walk away with images that don’t just show what it looked like—but what it felt like.
Make your own rules. Break all of them. Just remember: your day, your way. Aunt Tammy can take several seats.
Based in Bergen County, NJ, but always down to chase love wherever it leads. Rooftop parties, island vows, backyard magic—I’ll be there, camera in hand, heart wide open.
Let’s make some time-stopping, soul-soaked memories.
Some facts about me
Dog dad
Aries, the god of war, is my gorgeous crazy mush of a pittie. 12 years old and not a single old bone in his body. Loves cuddling, sleeping, walkies and of course, pooping. Favorite foods include: anything that falls off my plate :P
adventurous
You’re prob thinking “This guy is wild, I like it!” To be completely fair, I did NOT plan on it but I did plan on doing some crazy sh*t while I was out there and that just happened to be the craziest thing I’ve done in my entire life. I’m a spontaneity junkie and love going with a vibe. The vibe was just right in Kauai, Hawaii to jump out of a plane because when’s the next time I’ll ever have that chance? So if you’re thinking you got some wild sh*t you wanna do on your epic day, chances are I’m right behind you w my camera ;)
polaroid & Film lover
No matter what, I always got that thang on me. My vintage 1990s Polaroid and a film camera to sprinkle that extra razzle dazzle on your big day! Instant gratification and zero wait time for these photos :)
Take A Sneak Peek Into My Life
Yerrrrr—you really made it this far?
I love that for us. Let me properly introduce myself and give you a glimpse into the human behind the lens.
Before photography, there was music. My first love. My forever muse. Spotify Wrapped 2024? Let’s just say 9,061 songs and 118,000 minutes later, the obsession runs deep. The soundtrack to my life? Always playing in the background—sometimes in my head, sometimes in my edit queue.
I’m fueled by curiosity—whether that’s discovering a new hole-in-the-wall restaurant, wandering unfamiliar trails, or chasing sunrises in cities I’ve never been to before. But I’m also about the quiet things: slow mornings, buttery popcorn, and rewatching my favorite movies for the hundredth time. Balance, baby.
My biggest inspirations? My family.
My nephews—Mateo, Lorenzo, and Kairo—remind me to stay present, stay playful, and soak it all in. My parents and my pittie, Aries, are my anchors. My dad’s the blueprint—I carry the lessons he gave me into every room I walk into, every photo I take, and every story I’m trusted to tell.
Life’s too short not to love hard and live fully. That’s the energy I bring when I photograph your day. This isn’t just about snapping photos—it’s about honoring the people, places, and moments that make your love story yours.
Already feel like we vibe?
Yeah…same.
