Nine months since Halpin joined Elliman “on the crest of a wave” in an “absolutely blazing” market,” the support from his mentors and colleagues across the company continues to sustain him through the more challenging economic climate. And even though I’ve only been here a short time, I just want to pay that forward and share it with the new recruits who are joining the team.” “He said to me, ‘You have to have a sense of humor you have to be persistent and you have to do right by the client.” I try to do those three things every day. He credits Uhlinger with imparting “three nuggets of gold” that continue to guide him. “My response was always, ‘Oh, thanks, but, you know, I’m an actor.’ It was when he passed away that I actually started to listen to him.” “He would say to me, ‘You know, you’d be a really great real estate agent,” he recalled. It was Halpin’s grandfather who inspired him to pursue a career in real estate back in Ireland. When people feel safe, they make decisions to do business with you.” “Because you have to entertain, you have to build rapport, you have to build a bond, and trust is the core of it all. “All of my acting skills are called upon every day as a real estate agent,” Halpin said. Both experiences have proven valuable to his burgeoning real estate career, providing a business-owner’s perspective on the North Fork community and an actor’s ability to connect with people. He appeared most recently in the Marvel series Daredevil (and may yet again in the forthcoming reboot on Disney+). In addition to owning and operating the Greenport Oyster Company for many years, he has also been a working actor since he was 14, when he portrayed the young Malachy McCourt in the 1999 film adaption of Angela’s Ashes. Indeed, since joining Douglas Elliman in January 2022 as an agent based in the Cutchogue office, Halpin has kept a rather full plate. “That’s the key to this place: abundance,” he said. And my grandfather and I, we used to always comment on that-it was such an abundance.” Peter Halpinįor Halpin, those memories capture what it is about the North Fork that lured him back to stay. “But the variety of different species here is incredible. “Where I grew up, in Ireland, we were just fishing for mackerel and pollock,” he recalled.

I am currently specializing in high school senior portraits, family and children, and weddings. I have been beyond blessed, with tremendous support from my wonderful family, friends, and community. I decided to take the next step in making this hobby into a profession in 2019 and it has been a wonderful journey. My love for photographing people has only grown over the years. This camera (which I still have today - but don’t use anymore of course), inspired me to join my high school’s yearbook program, where I learned to develop film, and the basics of photography. My passion for photography began in my early teen years (a long long time ago - shhhh!), before digital cameras had become the standard, I received a camera as a 14th birthday gift. When we can find time to, we enjoy traveling, camping, and hiking. I love coffee, my French bulldog Lola, cooking, running, and spending time with my family. I’m Stephanie Paige Zaricor, owner of Stephanie Paige Photography, LLC, and I LOVE taking photos! My husband, myself, and our 2 children live in the small town of Farmington, Missouri. Hello! Thanks for taking the time to check out my portfolio.
