Hi, I’m Stella M.
I’m drawn to light, atmosphere, and the quiet emotions that exist in between moments.
I specialize in documenting intimate weddings, city hall ceremonies, and couples, capturing what something feels like, not just how it looks. The subtle glances, the movement, and the connection between two people are the moments I care about most.
My work is inspired by cinematic light and thoughtful composition, but always grounded in something real. I don’t rely on stiff posing or over-directing. Instead, I guide you in a natural and intuitive way, so moments can unfold effortlessly.
You don’t need to know how to pose. I’ll guide you in a way that feels natural, so you can simply be yourselves.
Whether it’s a courthouse elopement, a walk through the city, or a wedding day, I’m always looking for a sense of story, something honest, emotional, and atmospheric.
If you’re drawn to images that feel natural, cinematic, and true to you, we might be a good fit.
Based in the Greater New York area.
