About
I’m Peggy, a Brooklyn-based photographer and arts marketing professional with 15+ years of experience creating editorial, institutional, event, portrait, and documentary images. I document cultural organizations, higher education, performances, public programs, and community life—capturing candid moments and polished portraits that tell the story visually, support press and publications, and serve long-term archival use.
Alongside my photography, I’ve built marketing and communications campaigns that connect audiences to mission-driven work. I bring an artistic perspective and strong visual consistency to everything from image selection and captioning to post-production workflows, collaborating closely with marketing teams, program staff, and stakeholders to ensure the imagery advances each organization’s narrative and audience engagement goals.
