**I AM ON MATERNITY LEAVE AUGUST-OCTOBER 2026, TAKING ON LIMITED SESSIONS IN NOVEMBER/DECEMBER (INCLUDING HOLIDAY)...FULLY RETURNING JANUARY 2027**

hey there, im francesca,

 

thank you for being here, you have no idea how much i would love to sit down and have a cup of coffee (or whiskey), with each of you who supports this journey. i am so passionate about photography...anything that takes a fleeting moment and makes it alive forever is frigin magical. those close to me say i'm an old soul, so it would make sense that i'm drawn to anything witchy, antique, moody and vintage. i love shadow and grain, organic and earth toned colors…timeless is always the goal when i photograph.

newborns are by far my favorite humans to photograph but also the most challenging, consisting of a lot of time and patience. but knowing that i get to deliver a gallery that captures your child at a time we only see once, brand new, makes it all worthwhile. 

fun facts about me:


i was born and raised in queens, ny and am one of seven siblings and a growing number of the petruccelli tribe. i'm full of sarcasm and sass and truly love making people laugh. i'm a lover of sipping whiskey, eating pizza, listening to the ocean and swimming in the lake. take me anywhere around the world for a fun adventure and i am happy (especially with my siblings). my home is decorated for halloween all year round and a candle is always lit. i am yoga teacher certified and a huge advocate for this community. marilyn monroe inspires me, jim carrey is a genius and mumford feeds my soul.
