Hi! I'm LORETTA, a traveling documentary Photographer in nyc

the same-day sneak peek photographer

The moment I held my first camera at 11 years old, I knew. This was my first love. Going from developing film in darkrooms to capturing similar magic at weddings, I fell in love with documenting people and their stories. Knowing God's loving kindness in my life, I want people to feel seen and heard in the same way. My goal is to take photos you can look back 20 years from now & remember how much you loved & were loved. This will be so much more than getting vibey pictures; it's about creating space for you.

We had an absolutely amazing experience with Loretta. At first I was nervous to be in front of the camera but she had excellent communication from start to finish. It was my first time doing an engagement session and she made us feel so comfortable and relaxed!

It was so fun getting to re-live every moment of our special day because of Loretta's stunning photos. We could not be happier with the choice we made by hiring her for our engagement photos and our wedding. She instantly felt like a friend and made us super comfortable!

Upon planning our wedding, I was nervous about ‘who’ our wedding photographer would be — I know I wanted to feel relaxed and be able to not feel like there’s a camera on me/us. Well, Loretta was the perfect person to photograph ourwedding! Meeting her was like meeting a friend you haven’t seen in a while but can just pick up where you left off with. She makes you feel seen and heard, and has a genuine and gentle personality. If I could have her be the photographer for all of life’s special moments, I surely would.

We can’t recommend Loretta enough. The experience was out of this world. Not only is she incredible at what she does, she also makes you feel so at home. It just feels like a hanging out session with her. We absolutely love our family pictures and will talk about this day forever. Her style is so organic and soft. Just like her personality ! She’s our photographer forever now.
