Gifts, cats, smiles, laughter, tears. All moments that happen before the ceremony even begins.

During my consultations I often ask my couples if they want getting ready photos. Some do, some don't, but oftentimes couples don't know what it is I actually capture in the morning. Of course there are the detail shots and the portraits, but it's also the little things. For example, the rings on the chess game that was on the table or the couple's beloved cats, friends and family present, as well as the moment the groom reads a letter from the bride. All beautiful moments from the day that deserve to be captured.

FREE PHOTOS AT MEMORIAL PARK 

To celebrate a decade of capturing love stories, I'm hosting a free mini photoshoot event at Memorial Park! No winner to pick. Everyone who enters gets a photo. ✨

How it works:

📅 September 20th, 5:00-7:00 PM, come early!

📍 Memorial Park (near the bridge)

🎟️ First come, first served — one photo per group/person

💛 To keep things simple (and fair for everyone!), your beautiful face can only star in one photo. So choose your photo wisely!

📱 Scan a QR code on-site to access your photo in a shared PUBLIC gallery — free to download!

💕 Feeling like you need more than one picture? Extra photos are available for purchase on-site, but there's no pressure, that's not the point of this shoot.

To participate:

✅ Follow EL PASO WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER
✅ Share this post to your story
✅ Save this post
✅ Comment below with the type of photo you want (couple's session, product, family portrait, solo, friend group, etc.)

☀️ Weather looks great so far! If anything changes, I'll post updates right here.

Come through and let's celebrate 10 years together! See you at the park 💛

Hear the saxophone get louder.

Why is it always the most random thing that gets the most engagement? I won't complain, but if you like sunrises and bats AND photography, go give my recent work some love😂.

Ok, I had to make this one! Living in a border with lots of Latinos, this is what my average wedding day feels like. I love them all!

A few grainy black and whites from this studio session . I use very little grain in my normal editing workflow but it was fun to play around with these. What do you think?

It's time!!! I'm so excited to share photos from Gina and Francis' wedding day. I especially love the colors here. This couple is a photo/film powerhouse with their own thriving media business. It's always an honor to take photos of fellow creatives!

Five years ago I was sitting in a master's program, fitting wedding bookings in on the weekends, terrified yet knowing what I really wanted.

I dropped out. It was the best decision even though I only had a vision of what I hoped it could become at that time.

Since then, six things have quietly built what this is today.

Going full-time forced me to take this seriously in a way "side hustle" never did. Investing in education — real money, not just free YouTube tutorials — stretched my eye and my business brain faster than years of trial and error could have. Niching into weddings, instead of shooting everything under the sun, built a kind of trust I couldn't manufacture any other way.

I started treating the client experience as part of the art, and not just an afterthought, curated galleries instead of a USB handed off in a parking lot, albums instead of "here's your Google Drive link."

I started taking three months off every year, on purpose, because I've watched too many photographers give everything to their business and have nothing left for the people they love.

And somewhere along the way I stopped chasing followers. I don't need thousands of people watching. I need twenty couples a year who feel like the right fit. Who trust me with a day they'll never get back.

That's the whole business, really. Not going viral. Just doing the work well, for the right people, without losing yourself in the process. It's been a huge blessing in my life. I'm humbled, grateful, and so happy that I get to do this full-time, and it's just an extra treat that it's been successful.

I had the honor of capturing a beautiful 80th birthday yesterday. Seeing Elisa surrounded by family, and friends (some from childhood) was really special to witness. Celebrations really bring so much richness to life and I love capturing them. Here is just a peek.
