IT'S SO NICE TO MEET YOU
YOU CAN CALL ME STEF
A little about me
A gentle soul myself. I’m here for the people that love deeply, but perhaps get a little self-conscious in front of the camera (don’t worry, I still get nervous too). For the people that are ready to celebrated their love, but need to feel safe first. For the ones that love all the little things in their day-to-day of their partnership — the quiet mornings, exploring different parts of your city, practicing love languages, and lovers of their own routine.
I believe that my time with you is an energy exchange. You fill my cup with your love and I make sure your time with me is a safe one. The truth is majority of us get self-conscious when the lens point at us. I’ll be there to ensure you are focused on your connection above anything else.
My love language? I’m a sucker for letters. So, I wrote one for you to tell you more about why I am here.
Your love, cinematically and authentically told
To the Gentle Souls,
Thank you for being here. Your presence here is helping heal a part of me — more than you can imagine.
I am a queer latinx photographer & creative, who always loved capturing connection between humans, but took a little detour to get here. My journey officially started in 2017 when I began to capturing families. The little ones taught me to embrace the unexpected, setting the stage for my documentary style in elopement and intimate wedding photography.
I believe that love is not just an emotion; it is a daily choice. Your decision to choose each other on your special day is a privilege I deeply honor. One that is unique couple to couple. My energy battery is recharged by admiring the connections around me and seeing people in their unique love bubble. Coming from the corporate world, know this is a cherished time for me.
Stepping into your world, my focus is on making your presence and comfort the centerpiece of each captured moment. If you ever felt uneasy about being photographed, allow me to transform this into a uniquely wonderful experience for you.
With love & gratitude,
Stef

MY PHILOSOPHY
I believe that my time with you
is an energy exchangeIn every laugh, every tear, and every shared thought, we create a mutual trust that allows me to encapsulate the beauty of your elopement or micro wedding. It’s more than just photography — it's an investment to creating a safe space to tell your unique story. As we work together, I aim to honor that exchange and reflect it in every frame I capture
MY VALUES
Let’s jump on a call to get to know each other and see if we are an energy match. This is a day where I enter your love bubble and you have the option to trust me.
I will dive deep into your story, what has build you as a couple, love languages, and your why. We'll spend time before our session getting to know one another so by the time it comes to be in front of the lens our priority is being in the love bubble and that your love is captured with care.

You will see it all over this website. I want you to be as present as you can be during our time together. We worry too much about external validations. In our time together, we will let ourselves enjoy the stroll, picnic, pizza (!!), and let the rest do the talking.
-
You and I will get to know each other pretty well! My energy for that day regardless of what unfolds, will be focused to make your day as comfortable and authentic as possible.
-
You will feel the camera the first few minutes — I can’t promise you won’t. I ask that you trust me in capturing your love as authentically as possible. We are here to celebrate your love. Let yourself be absorbed in your bubble; the pictures will tell the story.
