I’m glad to share a bit of my journey with you. I’ve been at this since 2007, working with all kinds of clients across commercial and portrait photography. Over the years, I’ve learned that there’s no shortcut, it takes a lot of hard work and dedication to produce high-quality images.
While the awards and recognition are great, what I value most is the chance to work with so many talented people and respected companies along the way.
As a Latina photographer, diversity and inclusivity are at the heart of everything I do, whether it’s a personal project or a commercial shoot. My goal with portraits is to create a space where people feel comfortable being themselves, so I can capture who they actually are. I want every shot to have that high-end editorial feel, the kind of photos my clients will want to keep forever.
When I’m working on the commercial side, I know how important it is for the visuals to align with the brand’s identity and help the product succeed. Regardless of the scale, I bring the same level of attention to detail, especially when it comes to studio lighting and retouching. Every project deserves that extra bit of care.
Thanks for taking a look at my work. I’m grateful to share what I do, and I’m looking forward to potentially working together.
Started with a cheap camera and a kitchen table “studio.” It wasn’t high-end, but it’s where I learned the basics using family and friends as models.
Finally saved up for my first DSLR. That same year, I joined Model Mayhem and started shooting strangers for practice. Nerve wracking, but the experience was priceless.
Started participating in local photography meetups and networking with others in the industry. Building a community of peers and collaborators provided the foundation needed to grow.
Scored my first opportunity to test with Click Models Agency. This was a major step into the professional world, allowing me to refine my portfolio and craft.
With a move to sunny Florida, I thought, “New place, new start.” I took a deep breath and dove head-first into full-time photography. No looking back.
Took a chance and entered an international photo competition on 500px. I ended up winning. My first competition and my first major win.
Things kept moving. I became a 500px ambassador, and as my YouTube grew, brand sponsorships started coming in.
Won the Sony Alpha Female+ Grant, which was a huge milestone. It also introduced me to a lot of great people at Sony.
Won the Sony World Photography Awards as the US champion. Was featured in major press like Forbes, and my winning photo was part of a traveling art exhibit all over the world
Things came full circle as I judged a Sony Mini Grant competition and hosted events for both Aftershoot and Sony.
