I'm an Orange county based elopement photographer and lifestyle photographer but I am always happy to travel wherever your love goes. I'm known for my ability to make my clients (more like friends) feel beautiful and comfortable in front of my camera. I combine an editorial & documentary approach when capturing your unique story. I focus on capturing perfectly imperfect moments, true feelings and most importantly the authentic you; because the real you is art.
I was born and raised in Los Angeles, CA & I LOVE warm weather! I'm the biggest early bird you'll ever meet; I'm talkin' 4:30am ready to squat early. Most days you can find me binging podcasts, working out or doing girly things with my beautiful daughter & our miniature schnauzer Lola. I am HUGE on Family; I love spending time with my parents and siblings. Growing up, my dad bought me countless cameras- I always wanted to take pictures. My love for photography stems from wanting to preserve priceless memories with my loved ones forever and I want to do the same for you!
