Hello, I'm Ari!
Your new photographer bestie
At the heart of everything I do is one simple goal: to capture joy. When I first picked up my camera, it wasn’t about building a business. It was about giving people proof of the moments when they felt alive, confident, and connected. That’s still the heartbeat of both my brands.
Queen of the Court Media was born courtside, where I’ve spent so much of my life as a player and coach. I saw athletes pour their hearts into every point, yet those moments often went unseen. I wanted to change that and capture the grit, laughter, and high-fives that make the game worth playing.
Skylight Studios came from a more personal place. It started as a favor to the families who’ve supported me through volleyball and grew into something bigger. The name honors my dog, Skylar, who passed in January of 2026. She encompassed so much light in MY world—the kind that shows up when you feel at ease in your own skin. Portraits can be intimidating, but I love turning them into something fun, real, and full of confidence.
Both brands tell the same story. One celebrates the collective joy of community and competition, and the other honors the personal joy of seeing yourself in a new light. Together, they let me do what I love most: capture the moments that make life feel full.
