Hi, I'm Siobhan! New York based Wedding Photographer serving the NYC area and beyond. I was an interior designer, working for an architecture firm making $50k a year, and doing photography on the weekends for extra money. After transitioning to full-time professional photography in 2019, I have grown my business to multi six figures, and have been featured in People, Bridal Guide, Westchester Magazine, and many more. Through all of this, I have gained a wealth of experience, including handling weddings with budgets ranging from $20k to $400k. This allows me to offer invaluable insights into catering to diverse clientele. Additionally, my experience photographing weddings across the United States has provided exposure to various settings and enhanced my versatility as a photographer. I am excited that 2024 will be my 8th wedding season! 

With my years of experience in the photography industry, from novice to seasoned professional, I want to provide you with the wisdom, knowledge, and lessons I have learned to help you avoid costly mistakes and maximize profit margins. Whether you want to grow a wedding photography business, enhance your photography skills, or learn to better manage your business or clients, I am here to support you and help guide you.

Here you will find mentorship opportunities, as well as digital education. Want to get into shooting weddings? Check out my Ultimate Blueprint to Successfully Second Shoot Weddings below!

"I have always absolutely loved Siobhan's work. While I have been in business for several years, I always feel like there are things that we can approve upon in our work. I specifically was needing some help with reception direct flash usage. I've truly loved Siobhan's reception work, and I knew she was the one to call when I wanted to learn more! Siobhan was prompt with meeting with me, and she fully explained everything I needed to know from start to finish. She did an on zoom demo with her own equipment, and she made sure I had mine with me too to try it out. As we were going through, Siobhan made sure that I understood and didn't have any questions. She was super easy to understand and very knowledgeable. I could talk with her for hours! After the call, Siobhan sent a follow up email with helpful links and a few notes that would set me up for success moving forward. Not only will you love Siobhan as a person, since she is the friendliest face and nicest person, but you will also love learning from her. I 100% recommend hiring Siobhan for your mentoring needs - upleveling your business and hiring a mentor is the best investment you can make in yourself, and Siobhan is your girl!"
