MY WORK

For the longest time I have been researching inside me about my true identity and my purpose in this world. I found in God my guidance and through His eyes I could finally see myself. 

I am here to serve you, and to help you see yourself with love. I am here to show you that your relationship with your loved one is the most special treasure you have in this life and having a moment to connect again is the most precious gift you will ever receive.

I felt alone once, trying to figure out what is next, completely lost in a place that wasn’t home. Photography saved me by showing me the path to the light and allowed me to connect first with myself and then with incredible people like you. Photography gave me the opportunity to bring to life so many dreams like mine, yours and your family dreams.

The Experience

I look to capture genuine and organic moments, the way he fixes your hair or your dress, the way your family interact to each other as the everyday occasion, I don’t focus on those “smile to the camera” kind of photography, of course we will definitely take these type of photos for cards, but trust me, the intimate moments are the ones you will cherish forever and MUST probably the captures you will want to hang on your wall. 

I thrive outdoors, the adventurous couples and families, during a beautiful sunset as the wind blows your hair and layers. This is the way my creative spirit comes to life and where we can connect in the best way possible. 

Let me hear about your story, what reaffirms everyday how much you love her, or what is one thing he does that makes you laugh so hard until your tummy hurts. I want to hear about that Story where your toddler hides inside your dress in the middle of a party to have a private moment. Let me know about all those moments, I LOVE stories of all types.   

For maternity, I want to make you shine even more, I want to reflect your beauty the best way possible. For couples, I will be right in the corner for any help, be it sharing a “to do” list for your wedding day, give you tips on where to look for vendors and services, grab you a glass of wine while you get ready on the wedding day. I WILL BE THERE FOR YOU! For families, we will enjoy the chaos, we will play around your kids’ personality and will have fun with every moment, even in the grumpy times… don’t worry, it will pass with some tricks. ^.^

I also will do location scouting to best fit your needs and to achieve those breathtaking captures, AAAAND I also have a styling assistance and client’s closet which you can pick anything you would like to wear. 

The process

PHONE CALL: We will do a phone, video, zoom call to get to know each other and see if we are a great fit to one another and also answer all your questions you may have.

BOOKING: After you decide that I am the girl of your dreams, I will prepare the contract and you will be able to do the retainer payment to secure your day.

PLANNING: I will help you plan for your day, help with outfits, location scouting and everything you will need to have the day you envision  If there is a need of a vendor, I have all my favorite vendors listings to share with you.

MEETING: Adventure, explore, and have fun!

INVESTMENT

Your story is a legacy, and your memories are the reminder of a joyful and adventurous life. Celebrate the moments and milestones that matters to you and your family, and I will make sure to turn them into a forever heirloom. Photos are timeless and sacred. Have you ever been in a family meeting where you got to go through all the old photos talking about stories from old times while laughing and celebrating those moments? Imagine that years from now, you will get to do it with your own kids! Investing in your memories today, means giving memories to your family tomorrow.

f.a.q.

After looking into my portfolio, reading about my work, and checking all the info on my beautiful website, send me an inquiry and we can start planning about getting into a quick call. I will make sure to answer all your questions and help you with everything I can. If we connect and we feel we are amazing for each other, then I will send you a contract and a payment of the non-refundable retainer will be necessary to reserve your date.

I do not offer raw photos as it doesn’t correctly translate my artistic vision. The number of photos will depend on the packages that you picked. If it is a wedding, then an estimate of 50 photos per hour will be sent over in your gallery. If it is a session with a number of photos specified, you will be able to pick your favorites after the session.

All my photos are hand edited and given 100% of my attention and love. For this, my turnaround time is a little bit longer than most photographers you see out there. I understand that you are anxious and super excited to see your photos, but I really appreciate when my clients understand my time needed to edit. I see my photos as art and I want you to appreciate the day and time you had at your session, but for that I need time to spend on the memories we created together. If I am in a rush, it is hard for me to get inspired to create a piece of art for you. Understand my photography as a painter slowly creating your frames and transferring all its feelings to the white canvas. That is how it works with me. As an artist, when we are rushed, we have the creativity side blocked and I may not have enough to create the masterpiece you are looking for. So, I appreciate you understanding the time needed to deliver your memories.

For sessions I take about 30 BUSINESS days to send your finished gallery.

For weddings the delivery is from 6 – 8 weeks.

I do have printed options, and albums sold separately, in your packages it is included in the online gallery only, but in case you want printed products, I do offer a 50% discount on products for one week after delivering your album. If you don’t have time right now to figure this out, don’t worry, you can pay now and select the photos you want later. I will be able to create a beautiful album proof for you.

Hella YES!!! I am always up for an adventure with my amazing souls. There will be a fee for travel depending on where we are going, but we can definitely be adventurous souls around the globe.

Absolutely yes. It is part of my job to help you coordinate outfits that speak to you and complement the location. Photography for me is art and everything must be aligned to create a masterpiece. You will tell me what look you want to achieve, and I will give you locations options for us to go. After you pick the location, we will then start to plan the outfits together.

I recommend a maximum of two. I love to connect with you and sometimes we are on a roll, having all the fun and breaking the session to change outfits can totally break the vibe in our session. So having less change of clothes will allow us to create more connections and be able to capture the true YOU.
