BORN TO BE BADASS
UNFORGETTABLE TRANSFORMATIONS: WOMEN’S PORTRAITS
SAN LUIS OBISPO + TRAVEL PHOTOGRAPHER
YOU DESERVE TO BE SEEN…
Yes, you. Just as you are right now. Not “someday” when things feel perfect. Not after you’ve checked some imaginary box. Today.
Because here’s the truth: your story matters. Who you are in this moment matters. And you deserve to exist in portraits that honor your strength, your beauty, and the quiet confidence you don’t always see in yourself.
A portrait is so much more than just an image. It’s a celebration of you. It’s a way to pause time, to say, “This is who I am, and I’m proud of her.” These portraits? They’re for you—to remind yourself of your worth. They’re for the people who love you, for your children or grandchildren to hold one day and feel that deep connection to your story.
So stop waiting for the “perfect time.” Let’s create something extraordinary together, right now. Because you are enough.
You are worthy. And you are absolutely worth celebrating.
Holy Glam! It’s Amaris!
AMARIS…
Amaris stepped into the Los Angeles session like she owned the space—and honestly, she did. An actress with comedic timing that could stop you in your tracks, she brought a fearless energy that made the session feel electric. Between her quick wit and magnetic presence, every frame captured her bold, unapologetic self. Amaris isn’t just funny—she’s captivating, and the camera couldn’t get enough.
NAE
SOULFUL CONNECTIONS
What can I even say about this radiant soul? She wears her story on her skin—trees etched into her arms like roots that ground her, and the word "compassion" boldly inscribed as a testament to her heart. She exudes depth, grace, and wisdom, the kind of presence that fills a room without ever needing to try.
Her tattoos aren’t just ink—they’re pieces of her journey, a living work of art that speaks of resilience, connection, and an unapologetic love for the world. A truly soulful human, the kind you can’t help but feel inspired by.
Honestly, photographing her felt less like work and more like witnessing a masterpiece unfold.

Pure Magic...
She walked in a little nervous—it’s normal. Most people do. But within minutes, the nerves melted away, replaced by laughter so big her cheeks hurt. The music set the mood, the easy encouragement kept her smiling, and before long, she was moving with a confidence she didn’t even know was there.
This wasn’t just a photoshoot. It was something bigger. It was about letting go, being in the moment, and realizing just how incredible she really is.
By the end of the session, she felt radiant—like the version of herself she always dreamed of. And that feeling? It’s not just captured in the photos. It’s something she’ll carry with her forever.

Why I’m Obsessed with Black + White Photography
There’s just something about black and white that pulls me in every single time. It’s raw, it’s honest, and it doesn’t try to be anything other than exactly what it is. Stripping away the distractions of color reveals what’s really there—emotion, texture, and light. The real stuff. The stuff that matters.
I love how it shifts the focus. Suddenly, it’s not about the color of a dress or the backdrop. It’s about the curve of a shadow, the depth in someone’s eyes, or the way light dances across their face. It’s vulnerable and intimate, but it’s also universal. Black and white is where the soul of the image lives, and honestly, that’s what I’m chasing every time I pick up my camera.
For me, it’s never just about taking a pretty photo. It’s about creating something timeless, something that feels deeply personal yet resonates with everyone who sees it. Black and white photography lets me do that. It simplifies, but it never feels simple.
And that’s why I’ll always be in love with it.
LORDY, LORDY, LOOK WHO’S 40!
Kristine’s 40th birthday session was everything a celebration should be—bold, beautiful, and so full of life. From the moment she stepped in, she radiated confidence and joy, lighting up every frame. This wasn’t just about capturing her turning 40—it was about celebrating the incredible woman she’s become. Forty never looked so radiant, and Kristine? She owned every single shot.
STREET SOUL wITH CRISTINA
Black-and-white street photography for women’s portraits is about blending boldness with authenticity, capturing raw, unfiltered moments in the midst of everyday beauty. Stripped of color, the focus shifts entirely to the textures, contrasts, and emotions—the way shadows carve along urban walls, how light highlights the curves of a confident stride, or the quiet power in a stolen glance. It’s not about staging perfection—it’s about finding it in the natural rhythm of the streets. These portraits, timeless and evocative, tell stories of strength and elegance, showing you as you are—real, unapologetic, and stunning. In the chaos of the world around you, you’re the undeniable focal point, and that’s where the magic lives.
“PAVEMENT POETRY”
JUDY… JUDY… JUDY!
From the moment Judy stepped in front of the camera, she owned it. She had this quiet confidence, a grace that was impossible to ignore, and a presence that commanded every frame. She didn’t just step into the session—she stepped fully into herself, celebrating her strength, beauty, and undeniable elegance.
Judy reminded us all what it means to shine unapologetically, and these portraits? They’ll forever tell the story of a woman who truly owned her moment.

CONFIDENCE IS CONTAGIOUS
Marigolds, Dirt, and a Little Roadside Magic!
Ruby and I pulled off to the side of the road in Edna Valley, surrounded by marigolds glowing in the sunlight. The scent of those flowers—earthy and sweet—filled the air as we dove into the session. It wasn’t polished or planned, but that’s what made it so perfect.
People driving by honked their horns, cheering us on, and Ruby? She lit up the field. Her energy, her confidence—it was undeniable. She owned the moment, standing out against the vibrant blooms and dusty dirt. This wasn’t just a photoshoot. It was freedom, joy, and a reminder that sometimes, the most unexpected places hold the most unforgettable beauty.
