Hey, I’m Bailey!
Fashion, Branding & lifestyle photographer based on Long Island, New York
My photography journey…
I often think about the very first time I picked up a camera. I was 14 and very unmotivated. My mom offered me her camera, encouraging me to take a walk to the beach and photograph anything that caught my eye. From this moment on, I use photography as an outlet; it’s a way to communicate through visual storytelling.
An excessive amount of beach photographs later, I decided to start making self-portraits. It was a way for me to experience expressing myself in a way that made me feel confident and creative. I was able to transform my thoughts into images; in these images, I was able to say more than anything I could put into words.
Discovering myself through photography gave me the ability to capture the beauty in those around me. Photographing others has given me a voice that I never thought I had.
That said, I would LOVE to make you feel as powerful as you are! You don’t necessarily need a reason to book a photoshoot. Getting dressed up to have your portrait taken that will make you feel good is a reason on its own - There is no better feeling than feeling beautiful and confident.
Let me show you your beauty.
Get to know more about me…
Creativity has always been at the heart of who I am. From painting, junk journaling, and cooking to building moodboards for photoshoots, I love finding beauty in the process of creating. After graduating high school, I attended The Savannah College of Art and Design to follow my passion for photography. I fell in love with the historic charm of Savannah, it was the perfect playground for my camera and me. Later, I transferred to the Fashion Institute of Technology, where I graduated in 2023. It was at FIT that I truly learned to see the world through color, texture, and emotion.
When I’m not behind the camera, planning my next shoot, or editing at my desk, you’ll find me spending time with my family, friends, and dogs, or dreaming up my next adventure.
A fun fact about me: I learned American Sign Language in high school and absolutely fell in love with it. There’s something about the way ASL expresses emotion and storytelling that feels like visual poetry to me. I still get emotional watching people sign and hope to relearn it one day, maybe even find a way to blend it with my creative work!
