About Me
Hi, I’m Chloe—an internationally published freelance photojournalist and wedding photographer based in the Philadelphia and Greater Philadelphia area. While I primarily shoot weddings at the moment, I've worked across a wide range of photography, including news, weddings, events, headshots, corporate and commercial work, sports, travel, and documentary-style storytelling.
I’m a Penn State graduate with a degree in photojournalism and over 15 years of professional experience. My background includes working as a staff photojournalist and video journalist for newspapers in the Greater Philadelphia area, as well as serving as an associate photographer and editor at a Philadelphia-based studio before transitioning to full-time freelance. Through the Penn State College of Communications at Penn State, I also had the opportunity to intern in London and report from Brazil ahead of the 2016 Olympics. I was also Photo Editor at the Daily Collegian for two years.
I’m drawn to photojournalism because I believe the most meaningful moments are often the quiet, intimate ones—the moments you don’t always notice in real time, but remember for years to come. Traveling with my camera has shaped how I see the world and allowed me to connect with people from all walks of life.
When I’m not behind the camera, I'm spending time with my son, husband, dog, and cat. I enjoy working out and cooking, caring for my plants, listening to podcasts, and spending time with friends and family—usually with a good cup of coffee or a craft beer in hand.
I can't wait to work with you!
Let’s work together!
