Another senior session to share! I’ve known Justin and his family since we moved to the desert and I can’t believe he’s a senior in high school, time really does fly by! I had so much fun with this session – we took Justin’s truck out into the desert and had some fun with the desert’s natural surroundings. We also took advantage of his high school’s beautiful baseball field, which was perfect for some fun baseball shots!

Justin, enjoy your senior year, I wish you the best!

I have such a fun time with senior portraits, it is such an amazing time in a young person’s life and I am so honored to capture them in this moment. I am so excited to share a few from my session with Jayme, she is such a beautiful girl with a very bright future ahead of her!

Jayme, good luck with all you do!!

{Eddie + Stella}

After thirty-three years together and six children, Eddie and Stella celebrated their love with a beautiful ceremony before their family and friends, and became husband and wife. This was my first time photographing a wedding and I was beyond thrilled! The love these two share is so very apparent – every look, every smile, every tear was full of so much love, it was beautiful. The ceremony was at the St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church in La Quinta, and the reception was at Sun City Shadow Hills in Palm Desert. It was an absolutely lovely day that I was honored to capture.

Eddie and Stella, thank you so much for this wonderful opportunity. May your lives continue to be filled with much love, happiness, and many more blessings!

Here is a glimpse of this wonderful day – enjoy!

I am blessed to have a mother that I look up to and cherish; I am thankful to be her daughter. It was an honor to capture her and her beautiful spirit, in the light I always see her in.

This quote reminds me of my mom:

“Keep your face always toward the sunshine – and shadows will fall behind you.”

Sometimes self-portraits are the hardest portraits to take.

It’s much easier to stay put behind the camera, but I think it’s important as a mother, as a wife, as a daughter, and as an artist, to remember to look at yourself deeply and always from more than one angle.

Here is me, by me.
