Hey, I'm Karalyn!

I’m a Syracuse, New York based music professional with a main focus on visuals and management for artists and a passion for senior portraits and weddings. From photography, videography, and graphic design to tour, merchandise, and VIP management, I’ve built on a DIY mindset and years of working directly within the music community.

I have focused on documenting the music scene and people regardless of genre, race, sexuality, or gender identity for the past nine years. I am always looking to expand and work with more individuals both in and out of the music industry.

In December 2022, I graduated from SUNY Fredonia with a Bachelor of Science in Music Industry and a minor in Visual Arts & New Media (focus on graphic design and photography). 

I am the founder of For The Punks a music/art magazine and resource for fans and creators to connect and grow together. In August 2019, I launched the website and in January 2025, I ended the magazine.
