BIZ HERMAN

Hi! I’m Biz, a documentary‑style portrait photographer with over 20 years of experience.

I worked for over a decade as a regular contributor to The New York Times. As a mom based in Brooklyn, I love using photography to capture moments you and your family will treasure forever.

No matter your comfort level in front of the camera, I’ll support you and your family in having a relaxed, story-driven session—focusing on genuine moments rather than posed formality.

“Biz photographed my family with my six month old son and has also taken work portraits of me throughout the years. It has always been the best experience with the most amazing photos. I am shy in front of the camera, but Biz makes it almost impossible to feel uncomfortable, instead turning the shoot into a memorable and treasured day. She makes it fun and relaxed—and then so exciting to get the one-of-a-kind photographs back. Nothing is ever stilted or formulaic. She has an amazing eye for detail and a knack for getting everyone to appear as their most natural and effervescent selves. Couldn’t recommend Biz more highly for your family photos.”
