Hi! I'm Lin Pernille [pur-NIL], the owner and lead photographer & videographer of Lin Pernille LLC. I’m based in the beautiful, mountainous Hudson Valley region of NY, but I'll travel just about anywhere for a wedding!
I fell in love with wedding photography when I shot my first wedding at 18 years old.
I quickly realized that weddings combined every genre of photography that I loved: photojournalism, still life, portraiture, fashion, and beauty. When I was 20 years old, during my junior year in college, I knew that I had found my passion and decided to officially incorporate my photography business.
When I’m not shooting, editing, or mentoring, I’m probably binge watching a docuseries, Marie-Kondo-ing the house, trying to beat a PR in our home gym, or hiking a local trail with my husband Corrado and our son Summit.
My goal is to get to know my couples throughout the planning process so that I can translate their personalities and vision for their wedding day through the photos and videos.
There’s no greater honor than to be able to photograph a couple’s big day, and for that reason I take my job very seriously. I will always strive to capture the mood, style, and all the important moments of the day while being attentive yet unobtrusive, and making the couple feel comfortable and calm throughout the whole day.
I’m very grateful to be able to do what I love and I can’t wait to share more special days with more unique couples!
My first name Lin is Chinese for "lotus" (I was born in Hong Kong!) and my middle name Pernille is Danish (I grew up in Denmark!). I moved to America when I was 5 years old.
