About Nellie Bug Photography

Creating Images That Become Part Of Your Story

At Nellie Bug Photography, every experience is centered around connection, authenticity, and preserving life's most meaningful moments. Based in Central New York, Nellie Bug Photography specializes in family, couples, engagement, senior, wedding, and seasonal portrait photography. My goal is to create an experience that feels relaxed, natural, and enjoyable while capturing genuine emotions and timeless memories.

I believe photographs are more than images on a screen—they become heirlooms, reminders of the people we love, and pieces of our story that can be shared for generations. Whether you're celebrating a milestone, documenting a new chapter, or simply preserving a season of life you never want to forget, I'm honored to help tell your story through heartfelt, meaningful imagery.
