Hi, I'm Cassondra. It's nice to meet you.

I'm a wedding and portrait photographer living in the Philadelphia suburbs with my husband and our dog, Squid.

I've been photographing weddings for the last ten years. If you looked at my resume, you'd see that I've been working as a photographer longer than anything else I've ever done, which is something I'm very lucky to be able to say.

If you let me, I'll talk about myself forever, so here's some highlights.

Here's what you need to know about me:

01.


I talk a lot.


I'm endlessly curious, so I want to hear everything you want to tell me, but I also will always have a story that relates.


It should also be mentioned that I'm gonna curse. Sorry in advance.


02.


a textbook gemini.


I see both sides of everything. I've had a thousand hobbies. I've been told my mood fluctuates often. I also read my horoscope daily - I'm a Cancer Rising, a Taurus Moon, and a Gemini Sun.

03.


an introverted extrovert.


When I'm on, I'm on - I'll crack jokes, tell stories, and chat up everyone around me. I'm down for everything.


When I'm off the clock, you can find me reading a novel, listening to podcasts, dancing in my kitchen, or walking in nature with my dog.

04.


I'm gonna call you "friend".


I photographed school portraits for ten years, so I'm used to entering a room with "hello friends!" Please don't be like the middle schoolers and tell me I'm not your friend. I promise you - if we're not friends yet, we will be.

a true ride or die.

As the eldest daughter (iykyk), I'm used to making shit happen, taking care of others, and chronically people pleasing. This extends to my business - I'm ready to break into a construction zone if it's where you've got your heart set on taking photos. I'll stand in water or on chairs. I can raise my voice, so you don't have to. At your session or on your wedding day, you're the top priority - I'm here to make sure what you want happens.

When I'm not photographing weddings, I take pictures while we travel. Here's some of my favorites.
A person stands at the edge of a rushing mountain stream with turquoise waters flowing through a wooded forest setting.
A person sits alone on a rocky outcrop surrounded by tall granite cliffs in a natural climbing area.
Snow-covered stream winds through winter forest with rocks and bare trees creating a serene woodland scene.
Fallen logs create a natural bridge across a stream in a misty Pacific Northwest forest with towering evergreen trees.
A rustic wooden cabin nestled among tall evergreen trees with a dog walking up the path towards it.
Mossy forest trail leads to a misty waterfall cascading down rocky cliffs in a lush Pacific Northwest landscape.
Cozy bedroom with a large window overlooking a snowy forest, featuring rumpled white bedding and a sleeping dog.
A serene lake reflects autumn trees along the shoreline with golden foliage under an overcast sky.
Rocky coastal cliffs with pine trees overlooking deep blue ocean waters on a clear summer day in Maine.
