Welcome!

One of the things that I love about what I do is that the people in the photographs you see aren't just clients, they are friends that I get the honor of capturing through each stage of life. Some come later in their family's story and some right at the beginning, but regardless of where their story starts, I consider myself blessed to be a part of remembering the moments.

My biggest desire is to catch the beautiful moments of life, the real moments of life, as well as some prettied up moments (haha) in the way that I would want them captured if I was on the other end of the lens. The best I can give each client, that's what I aim for.

Senior Portraits

Andrea University Senior Portraits | Cal State University San Marcos

May 15, 2022 in Senior Portraits

A handful of years ago I was taking pictures Andrea’s quinceanera pictures and now here we are, taking pictures of her graduating from Cal State University San Marcos. Crazy how quick time flies. I had actually never been to CSUSM, despite the fact that it is is here in San Diego County, but I loved how intimate it felt. I am pretty sure that during our shoot we walked the whole campus. The evening was beautiful and Andrea even more so. Andrea, I hope you love the pictures! Best wishes to the next season of your life!

Kaitlin Smith | Steele Canyon Bridge

May 31, 2021 in Senior Portraits

This past weekend I photographed a special senior portrait session, the daughter of a fellow teacher and team member. I remember when Kaitlin and her friends use to come to our classrooms to complete their volunteer hours for high school and now her journey has come to an end and she will be graduating next week. So crazy!

We headed out to Steele Canyon Bridge, which I love as long as it is mid-week, aka not as many photographers out there. San Diego was showing off with it’s gorgeous weather like always!
