Hello and welcome! I am a Fine Art Wedding Photographer born and raised in Southern California. I was always asked to take photos for my family when they had events so the love for taking photos came at an early age. I love weddings, being creative, and being an artist! I’m passionate about what I do and I love to make people laugh. I have a background in hair & makeup along with being a photographer. What I offer different from other photographers is ME!
My style is airy, lifestyle and fresh. I love the look of film! I love photos to be romantic, fun, full of emotion, artistic and most importantly timeless. The look I strive for is love, beauty & art. I started my career in 2000 as a photographer for weddings at my church and then launched my own business in 2005.
The best thing about being a wedding photographer is the opportunity to meet and befriend incredible people. I absolutely adore my clients and I feel very fortunate to be able to take part in their wedding day and to witness the beautiful moments of love and closeness between couples and their families.
Some thoughts on weddings…
I believe that your wedding photos should make you happy, and remind you how much joy you had on your wedding day.
I believe that your wedding photographer should make you feel comfortable like an old friend.
I believe that every single bride is beautiful and every groom is handsome.
