WELL ALOHA THERE, GLAD YOU MADE IT

Thank you for showing interest in my photography, I absolutely love what I do.

With a passion for creating images that capture the genuine connection and emotion between you and your loved ones, my style is natural and authentic. A session with me will yield photos that radiate with real smiles, joyful moments, and timeless beauty. I focus on finding the most beautiful light and backdrops, while also helping you to feel comfortable in front of the camera.

HOW DID I GET INTO PHOTOGRAPHY?

I come from a family that believed in anything related to art profession won't feed my belly so I went with my family's wishes and become a college professor.

After teaching English as a second language at different universities: I felt like I needed to find something else that will feed my soul and make my heart smile. Thats when it dawned on me; I always walked around with a camera and documented my life and others around me. I was worried I'd forget all the good moments with my loved ones and tried to fit them all in my little camera.

When I lost my grandmother that I loved very much, all I had left was the photographs I had taken of her every summer. Looking back at those and remembering all the precious moments we had gave me so much comfort. That's when I realized I wanted to be the person that gives people comfort and happiness.

When I photograph your wedding or family, I'm not only documenting the moment, I'm freezing that memory for you to look back and cherish it all over again and carry it to next generations. This is the most meaningful and rewarding job I can ever ask for.

Time goes by so fast that we all are going to need reminders of all the good times later in life and what is a better reminder than pictures?

PERSONAL LIFE

Someone once said I will have to give up on having fun and acting silly and be more serious when I start a family.

But little did they know: all you need is the right partner in crime to double the fun and then eventually triple it with a little bundle of a dance machine!

These crazy precious humans are my world and I couldn't ask for a better family.

When we are not working, we are traveling the world and exploring. We love meeting new people and learning new cultures.

We want our daughter to grow up to be open minded and have respect and love for everyone.

Why should we hire you as our photographer?

In case of any inconveniences during your wedding, I will be there to help you. With years of experience, you are guaranteed to get amazing images of your wedding day. I got you!
