It feels a bit surreal to say this, but I’ve been photographing weddings for over a decade now. To be honest, it wasn’t my first career choice—fashion was. But over time, I realized that having a stylist background gave me a unique advantage in how I capture people today. When I see pretty, I sense it quick—right down to the smallest details. Clients see a lot of heart poured into my work and I love that.
I know I’m a rare artist and I’m proud my work reflects where my influences stem from. Whether I’m inspired by the movements in dance, the feels that music gets me in or just putting on that fire fit to set the mood—I make sure every gallery I deliver captures that kind of energy each time. Editorial and effortless is my jam, so TRUST, working with me is always going to be a hella vibey time.

Alright, let’s keep it 100 over here. I’m a boujee bitch on a budget, a retired Polynesian dancer turned wanna-be boxer and a heavy thrifter with a guilty pleasure of doing late-night Taco Bell runs. When you look up the definition of a Sagittarius—that’s all me. Definitely a ‘90s R&B baby, though my music taste is kind of all over the place but in the best way.
I’d describe my personal style as girly-tomboy but on the sexier side? (grace face) Some of my friends call me a vampire because I don’t age and I’m nocturnal. One thing that drives me crazy? People wearing Nike socks with Adidas sneakers—just a no-no. Ketchup is also a no-no, GROSS. I collect way too many vintage film cameras and take a gamble on them each time I find one while thrifting. Obsessed with all things sweet, probably my kryptonite. Oh and I hella love dancing!
As the first-born daughter of immigrant parents, I was raised tough, and I take a lot of pride in who I am today—gentle, independent, strong-willed, outspoken, a perfectionist, sensitive and a total fighter. I love LOVE and bat hard for the people I love and the things I’m passionate about.
Most importantly I am a mommy first so who’s my main squeeze?! This beautiful little guy. He’s my heart & soul, and nothing matters more to me than him. He’s my “why” and my purpose, so aside from living out my dreams of being this lovely destination photographer… being his mom is the greatest gift and he’s my dreamiest boy forever.
