About Us

Explore Eastchester NY is more than just a media brand—it’s a love letter to our hometown, where every corner tells a story and every photo captures a heartbeat.

Born from a shared passion between JoAnna Tamarazzo (@joannatamcollective) of JT Collective Media & PR and Stephen of Creative SMB, our journey began not just behind the camera, but side by side—two creatives in love with their work, their community, and each other.

Together, we explore the streets of Eastchester, Scarsdale, Tuckahoe, and beyond—camera in hand, hearts wide open. From cozy café corners to the roar of a Muay Thai class, from sweet family events to high-energy happy hours, we document life as it happens, where it happens.

JoAnna’s passion for fitness, fashion, bridal, and community storytelling blends with Stephen’s love for photography, first responder culture, and local connection. From the mats at Legendary MMA and Igor Gracie Jiu Jitsu, to the tables of Tuck’d Away Bar & Grill and Toscana on Main, we capture it all—authentically, intentionally, and with heart.

✨ Whether we’re creating headshots for trainers, celebrating new restaurant openings, or simply chasing golden hour light on Main Street, our mission is simple:
To Create. Collaborate. Cultivate.

Explore Eastchester is where love for local meets the lens—and where every business, every moment, and every story deserves to shine.
