Photography Samples

During my internship with Reimagine Main Street, I had the opportunity to expand my photography portfolio across a range of settings, including event coverage, editorial shoots, and posed images. I was responsible for capturing and editing content that aligned with each project’s goals, whether that meant highlighting community events, showcasing small businesses, or creating eye-catching visuals for social and digital campaigns. Each assignment helped me strengthen my creative eye, improve my technical skills, and better understand how to tailor visual content to fit different marketing strategies.

The Greater Pittsburgh Food Truck Festival is a huge community event held every Memorial Day weekend at the Meadows Casino. With over 50 food trucks, live music, kids’ activities, a wiener dog race, and more, it brings in a big crowd from all over the region. I had the chance to photograph the festival and really capture the energy of the day, from the packed crowds and amazing food to the colorful trucks and cute dogs. I ended up delivering over 60 edited photos for future promotions, and some of my favorite shots are featured above.

Sapling Press is a letterpress print studio in Mount Lebanon, PA, known for its witty and one-of-a-kind designs. I created a feature story on the business for the June edition of South Hills Living Magazine, handling everything from the interview to the final layout. The photos above were taken at the Sapling Press studio, and most of them were included in the article. The magazine was released on June 19. 

As one of my final photography projects during my internship, I had the opportunity to take photos at the Budd Baer car dealerships for a magazine article celebrating the 50th anniversary of their Washington location. I captured images of the managers, the dealership buildings, and the collision center to help visually highlight their long-standing presence in the community.
