HANDCRAFTED STORIES
"Your eye must see a composition or an
expression that life itself offers you, and you
must know with intuition when to click the
camera …The Moment! Once you miss it, it is gone forever..."
- Henri Cartier-Bresson
I'M BASIA {BAA-SHUH}
II was born and raised in Poland, spent years living in California and New York City, and now call the East End of Long Island home.
Since going full-time with my wedding photography business in 2008, I’ve poured my heart into this work. I’ve had the joy of documenting weddings in elegant ballrooms, backyard gardens, organic farms, lighthouses, barns, historic mansions, the Caribbean and European islands, and the mountains of California and the East Coast. My work has been featured in a range of publications including The Knot, Over the Moon, Style Me Pretty, Carats & Cake, Well Wed, Manhattan Bride, and many others.
Whether it’s an intimate elopement or a grand celebration, every wedding holds the same significance to me. At its core, my work is about honoring love—capturing genuine connection, quiet gestures, and moments of joy as they unfold naturally.
I approach photography with empathy and nostalgia—drawn to raw human emotion, fleeting beauty, and the poetry in everyday details. As a deeply romantic soul, I feel incredibly grateful to have found a calling that lets me witness and preserve such tenderness.
It would be my honor to document your story.
