  • I am based out of California. Long Beach, CA to be more specific. I used to live in San Francisco a few years ago and always consider the Bay Area to be my second home. Do you hear that? “I left my heart in San Francisco” playing in the background. Do you hear it too? Haha I love that city.

  • Unfortunately, I don’t take any weddings where I can’t use the photos. I am emotionally connected to my work and it’s very hard to not share them with the world. I hope you can understand.

  • Absolutely! I took the leap and left my 9–5 nearly 10 years ago. Haven’t looked back since. It was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Doing what I love every day, connecting with amazing humans, and capturing unforgettable moments has been such a rewarding journey.

  • Where do I start… ready for a long story short? Here it goes… I found my love for photography at the young age of 8 or 9. I can’t remember. My father (yeah it’s one of those stories. Haha) gave me a Kodak 110 film camera. It was the best gift EVER! By the time High School came around it’s when I decided to take this passion to the next level. I took advantage of all 4 years and photographed everything I could. It was there when I first went in a darkroom and developed my first film and printed my first photograph. My heart dropped as I saw it come alive in front of my eyes. I can’t explain how amazing that feeling was.

    I continued doing photography all through College by taking classes and trying to find myself in this creative world. When digital started showing up… I honestly hated it. It wasn’t the same. I missed developing my own film and printing my own prints. It was hard… but I finally got into digital photography in 2007.

    Now at wedding’s one of the things I always remind myself when I have my digital camera in my hands…

    “Slow down. Remember when you had a film camera? You only had 36 shots in the film strip. You had to think about every pose or what you wanted to photograph before you actually did.”

    So you can say I do photograph fast on wedding days but I do always remind myself to slow down and to take those special moments in and be in silence when it’s necessary. I’ve been told that I’m like a ninja and when they get their photos they don’t know how I was even there for that particular moment.  

    I have degree in Photography and in Fashion Design ( Yes, I also went to FIDM) This is when I was trying to find myself. 

  • A mix of photojournalism and guidance along the way / warm tones / moody / romantic / natural. 


  • Yes, I do! Film is available as an add-on to any collection. While digital is my primary medium, I love incorporating a mix of both when requested — it adds a beautiful, nostalgic touch. Just let me know you're interested, and we can include it for an additional fee.

  • I specialize in photography only, but I work closely with some amazing videographers whose style and vibe align beautifully with mine. I’m happy to recommend a few that I trust and love working with!

  • Don’t worry at all. I got you! All I ask is that you trust me and be open to my ideas. I will direct you to do things so that I can capture you both as naturally as possible. There will be a mix of posed and unposed moments. I also, play music in the background. Breathe, it will be ok. We can also meet for a drink before we start our session? No pressure of course. If you don’t drink it’s ok. We can dance like no one is watching to take all the nerves away. I want to make you feel as comfortable as possible.

  • Heck yeah I do! I have my passport ready. Where are we going? I love to travel. Share with me as much information as possible of how you envision your day so I can create a package that works best for you both.

  • Yes, I do. It all depends on where your wedding/session will take place. There are no travel fees if your wedding/session are within an hour of my city. Long Beach, CA.

  • Yes, I do. They are an additional fee. I typically document weddings on my own and sometimes when the couple’s want or need a second then I hire someone that I trust.

  • Final galleries are delivered within 6-8 weeks from your wedding day. But wait! I won’t let you wait for weeks and weeks without anything. I will send you a sneak preview 2-5 days after your big day! I don’t like to wait so I don’t want my couples to wait either. I’m here for you. 

    During HIGH SEASON (May-July and September-November) the delivery time might take 9-12 weeks.

  • You will receive a private online gallery with unlimited downloads. It’s super easy to share with your loved ones. They too can download. You will also have the option to mark any photo you want as PRIVATE before sharing the link with your loved ones. They will only have access to what you let them see.

  • Yes, I do. Always. I use Canon cameras, lenses, and flashes.

    2 Canon R6s, 2 Canon Mark 5d IV, 2 Canon Mark III.

    35mm Lens, 24mm lens, 85mm, 105mm lens, 28-70mm RF lens, 70-200mm RF lens. Some vintage cameras depending on your package.

  • I use Adobe Lightroom to edit all my photos, applying my signature style to ensure they look their best. For key images—like your portraits, family shots, and some wedding party photos—I do minor retouching for things like blemishes, stray hairs, and small details. However, I don’t retouch every single photo in the gallery.

    If you're looking for more extensive Photoshop work, I offer it as an add-on service, priced per photo or project. These edits are handled by a trusted Photoshop professional to ensure top-quality results.

  • That depends on how many hours you hire me for and what package you decide to get.


  • I understand that you’re excited to see all the wonderful moments from your special day! While I focus on delivering a beautifully curated collection that best represents my style and brand, I do offer the option to purchase all RAW photos as an additional service, starting at $2000. Rest assured, the images you receive will capture the heart and soul of your event!

  • Yes, I do. By now I sound like I am marrying you. Ha ha
