About SYPhotography
“People might not remember what you said, but they will remember how you made them feel.”
- Maya Angelou
I’m a New York City-based editorial and personal branding photographer creating magazine-style imagery for founders, authors, creatives, and brands.
My style is clean, refined, and quietly fashion-forward. Every detail is intentional, but nothing feels forced.
My work sits between editorial and real life. It’s directed when needed, but grounded in who you are. The goal is not just to create something beautiful, but something that feels aligned and true.
I approach each session by understanding what matters to you. How you want to be seen. What you are building. What you are stepping into next. From there, I guide the process so you show up with clarity, confidence, and presence.
Over the past 15+ years, I’ve photographed across fashion, lifestyle, and commercial work, with images appearing in publications including Glamour, The New York Times, Avenue, People, and Time Out. That editorial background shapes how I approach every project.
I work best with people who care about how they are experienced, not just how they appear. Founders, executives, and creatives building something meaningful, and ready for images that reflect that level.
Based in New York City and available for travel.
My work centers on three areas:
Personal Branding: editorial-style portraits for founders, executives, and creative professionals.
Editorial Fashion: magazine-quality imagery for designers, publications, and creative campaigns.
Lifestyle Commercial: polished, natural imagery for brands and campaigns.
I take on a limited number of projects to ensure each one receives the attention it deserves. If this feels aligned, I’d love to hear what you’re working on.
