Took a day off to participate in an ancient ritual called screaming Florence + The Machine lyrics with thousands of emotionally unstable strangers like me eheheh (I’m joking 🤪) and found out maybe the real goal in life is just finding little moments of whimsy whenever you can 🖤✨
One thing about me… if Florence Welch is performing, I will find my way there. Been listening since 2008, seeing her live since 2011, and somehow every single show still feels like a spiritual reset button for my soul.

May has been nonstop lately, so this little day off was very much needed. Here’s a few of my favorite moments from the night 🤍

Still thinking about Sashil’s graduation session from last winter at San Jose State University 🤍🎓

As a first-generation graduate, this milestone meant so much more than just walking across a stage. Every stole, every detail on her grad cap, every champagne spray, and every smile carried years of hard work, sacrifice, and determination.

I photographed this session back in November 2025, and now that Spring graduation season is here again, I can’t help but reflect on how special it is getting to document moments like these for my clients 🖤

The soft sunset light, the architecture around campus, and all the personalized details came together so beautifully for this Light + Airy graduation session ✨

Huge congratulations again to Sashil Camacho on graduating from San Jose State University 🤍 Your story deserves to be celebrated.

POV: you plan a cozy beach session… and leave engaged 💍🌊

Ryoko + Ali have been together for about 2.5 years, spending their time exploring little neighborhoods, getting lost in thrift shops, and just doing life in the most fun, goofy way together. And honestly… you can feel that in every single photo.

From the moment we started walking through Asilomar, it didn’t feel like a photoshoot. It felt like two best friends just hanging out, laughing, and occasionally remembering “oh wait… we’re engaged now” 🥲

They showed up in the softest neutral tones, cozy sweaters, earthy browns, everything perfectly matching that light + airy coastal vibe. The kind of outfits that don’t try too hard… but somehow look like they belong exactly in this moment.

We got the quiet in-between moments, the laughter, the wind, the “almost kisses”… and of course, that moment that changed everything.

Sessions like this are my favorite reminder that it’s never about posing perfectly. It’s about letting your story unfold naturally… and just being present with your person.

Big big congrats again to you both 🤍

If you’ve been thinking about booking your own session, this is your sign. Spring dates are starting to fill up, so send me a message or head to the link in my bio and let’s start planning something beautiful together 🖤📸🤍

Some sessions just mean a little more 🖤

Watching Griselda + Herman with their boys… Michael, Jason, and little Ezekiel… it’s one of those things that never gets old. The laughs, the energy, the way each season of life just adds more to their story.

I’ve had the chance to photograph so many chapters for them over the years… and every time it feels like picking up right where we left off. Just a little more growth, a little more love, a little more chaos in the best way.

This one was taken last August at the Arizona Cactus Garden. We leaned into those darker tones, soft light, and let the moments happen naturally 🖤

And even though we’re in spring and summer is right around the corner… this is your reminder that dark and moody sessions aren’t just for one season. They’re for the stories that feel a little deeper, a little more timeless.

If you’ve been thinking about updating your family photos or capturing a new chapter… I’d love to be part of it.

Let’s create something real 🤝

Luis + Melissa at Palm Beach just out here making the coast look like their love story 🌊🤍

From running into the waves like kids to those quiet “it’s always been you” moments under the trees… yeah, this one felt special.

The kind of love that’s soft, playful, and effortlessly real.

Gabriela had already proposes
but Maribel said “okay but it’s my turn now” 🖤

What was supposed to be an engagement session turned into the sweetest full circle moment…
and honestly, we were all just there like 😭

This is your sign to plan something meaningful, something fun, something you.
Whether it’s a surprise, a celebration, or just capturing your love as it is right now… I got you.

Gabriela + Maribel, y’all are everything.

Alexia + Eduardo 🖤

From golden grass, quiet laughs, and dreaming about who she’d be…
to today, the day you finally get to meet your little girl 🥹✨

It feels like just yesterday we were out here in Palo Alto, tucked away in the tall spring grass, talking about “soon”…
and now “soon” is TODAY.

With Easter tomorrow, new life is literally in the air 🌿🤍
and I don’t know what’s in the water lately… but 2026 is already feeling like the year of babies 😂🍼

So many maternity sessions, so many announcements, and I’m here for ALL of it.

Praying for a safe delivery and the sweetest first moments together 🤍
Your greatest adventure starts now.

Cindy + Anthony🤍
The Montero–Manzo Wedding
May 17, 2025

Almost a year later… and this day still feels just as special.

From the very first details, you could feel how intentional everything was.
The flatlays, the soft tones, the textures, the way every piece was carefully chosen… it all told their story before the day even began.

And then came the moments…
The quiet anticipation walking into the ceremony, the way they looked at each other, the kind of love that felt steady, genuine, and effortless.

Surrounded by their people, celebrated with so much heart, and carried into a night full of laughter, dancing, and the sweetest memories.

Some weddings just stay with you… this was one of them ☁️✨

Anthony + Cindy, thank you again for trusting me to capture something so meaningful 🖤📸🤍

The Martinez – Aranda Wedding 🖤

Some love stories really do come full circle…

Back in high school, Girlie wrote in Marco’s yearbook:
“Invite me to your wedding.”

Fast forward to April 18, 2025… standing there in her dress, surrounded by their people, she smiled and said:
“Thank you for the invite.”

Yeah… that was the moment I lost it behind the camera 😭📸

And somehow… almost a year later, I’m still thinking about this day.

What makes this one even more special for me…
I got to witness part of their story back then, and now I had the honor of capturing the day it all came together.

From emotional vows to absolute energetic photos with the bridal party 😂 to that golden hour glow and a reception full of love… this day felt like a perfect reflection of who they are.

Girlie + Marco, thank you for trusting me with something this meaningful.
Your story is one I won’t forget 🖤
