Welcome to my blog!
I photograph...

because a memory should never be lost.
because love is all we need.
because today will be gone tomorrow.


I can't believe how much Ileana has grown in the past 6 months! She's such a sweet girl and we had a lot of fun creating these scenes, thanks mom for the great ideas!

I met these two at a wedding I was shooting last fall, they were a couple of those wedding-party-bus crashers... so naturally we bonded instantly ;) I had so much fun rooting around the orchard with them! Plymouth Orchards by the way, and we did have permission, I don't like to root around on private property hehehhee.. I hope you love this series, I seriously could not stop posting, these are just too. much. fun.

Well I can't lie, when Kristen and I sat down to discuss the possibility of me shooting her wedding in Vegas, I was a little more than excited! We've known each other for years, but in this business of photography, art and all, it isn't that easy to hire or trust a friend to play such a big part of your wedding day! So I was quite honored and delighted to be asked! I hope you enjoy this peek as much as I enjoyed shooting them! I want to thank my sister Julia for coming along and second shooting and assisting me for the day, what a treat! I never get to work with her but since she lives so close to Vegas it worked out well :)

Thank you Julia for opening that compact and giving me the inspiration for the jewelry shots!
