I’ve never been good at goodbyes.

When I was around 20 years old I got one of my favorite songs tattooed. It reads: every time we say goodbye I die a little. Sad I know, but that’s how I’ve felt about parting ways for as long as I can remember.

Weddings taught me how to deal with goodbyes. My clients taught me how to make space in my heart for them, and leave that space open, in case they’d ever want or need to return. Instead of feeling like my heart was full of empty rooms, it started feeling like it was full of overflowing memories.

Now I have to say goodbye again, to a part of me. And it was honestly one of the hardest things I had to do. Choose me.

Almost 5 years ago I was diagnosed with Lupus, and it has been a continuous struggle to stay healthy, to care for my body and give it space to rest.

A few years back I was also diagnosed on the autism spectrum and life slowly started to make sense. I started feeling like I might be able to keep living, and fighting to live a happy and healthy life.

I was afraid, before I decided to quit weddings, I thought that people would judge or not hire me because of these 2 huge parts of the human being I am.

I started feeling less afraid to live my truth, less afraid to look for other work opportunities, less afraid to live a different life.

Wedding photography came to me when I needed it, it was almost gifted to me, I felt after having my heart broken. And I know it will always be there, a room full of overwhelming memories.

I’ll always have photos like these, that mean so much to me… photos where I can see people, photos where I understand facial expressions, because they were true, genuine, real, what ever you want to call them. Photos that remind me of my grandpa and his obsession with family photos, photos that remind me we are just people, kind people.

Thank you for everything. And yes, I will eventually find the emotional energy to share photos I love with you, photos I’ve never shared because I was unsure about what they meant to me.

Lizzie and Rodrigo, una infinidad de gracias, because I saw kindness in your eyes, so true it made me believe the world will change if we work together.

Sharing just for the joy of sharing joy.

Sometimes there are dreams/goals you didn’t know you could accomplish or make come true. Meeting two incredible artists like them was one of the coolest things that happened to me during 2025.

I have so many images I cherish deeply from this moment, I somehow don’t have a strong desire to share them, but this I had to post.

Why? Sometimes we don’t think we have it in us to do something, then it happens, you get to do it, you’ll be nervous and you’ll want to throw up, but then you’ll realize we are all humans who feel, and you are an expert in the incredible art of feeling.

I guess what I want to say is, life changes, you change, you grow, you set goals, you meet people, you change, you grow again, you set another goal, you dream another dream, you are constantly moving, everything passes… the good and the bad. Life is all the things and non of the things we thought it would be.

I’ll always bring my first camera along with me, as a reminder of where our journey began, and as my companion on all the things I never thought I’d be able to do.

I’ve been stubborn about trying to make something great, and something great only comes when I don’t plan for it, when I don’t put performance pressure on myself.

I secretly or maybe openly dislike instagram, I dislike trends, I love history and I love looking back on what our grandparents use to do. However I still feel the need to be here, to not disappear I guess.

Maybe eventually life will be celebrated again, maybe we’ll learn how to stop faking emotions and how to stop fearing not being good enough, when we are actually fearing not being like everybody else.

Maybe I’ll eventually find the words to ease people into believing being themselves is perfect, even though being just that seems challenging to all of us.

Thanks for this gift grandpa. I love it, i love looking the layers of work it took to get this done.

As I went through hundreds of photos I kept seeing the reflection of a woman on a girls eyes.

I kept thinking how beautifully similar they looked, and how unknowingly complicit they were.

There were moments when it seemed the woman was looking at the girl (not in frame), and moments were the girl looked at the woman with infinite admiration.

This dynamic was a gift to them, to me, to all women. We as children dream about adventure and foreign lands, we dream about love, about our lives as professionals; we dream of all the things adults get to do.

As women, we constantly look back at our child self, looking for her everywhere we go, trying to keep her happy, smiling, content and above all, safe.

This moment healed me; this photo gave me peace. There she goes, the little version of me, of us, happy, enjoying the rain.

And there I am, there we are, cheering her on.

Thank you &
Thank you

Sometimes I’m editing and I come across moments. It makes me feel like I want to cry.
Maybe because most photographs are mirrors.
I miss who I was when I was this little.
I miss the world as I knew it.
How it felt so immense and infinite.
I’m thankful to see myself again.
And hopeful this little girl will remember.
When looking back, looking at this mirror.
I’m hopeful she’ll be proud.
