Photographing this family during one of the most challenging times our generation has experienced:  a global pandemic; and historic large California fires,  makes me appreciates my clients more than any other time in my 8 years in business. It fills me with joy; it makes me grateful; and it gives me purpose; which research shows […]

In my 8 years as a professional photographer, I have learned that it’s important to re-group, and shoot for yourself.  You get hired to photograph other’s people experiences, and love; but it’s always good to back to photographing your own love, and your own experiences.

Just when writing this post, I realize how I can be taken back to a place, and moment from a picture. It’s truly powerful. I finally get to show you the images from my road trip with my younger brother from Southern Germany to Italy. I loved to have had the opportunity to travel to […]

Finally, I get to blog some of the images from my recent trip to Bavaria. This past May, I visited my brother who currently lives in Freising, Germany while finishing his Master Degree in Economics. We got to spend a really great time together; with lots of laughter, and remembrance of our childhood. We also […]

So thrilled when I have returning families for Custom Families Sessions. I get to see how much the kids have grown, and what everyone is up to these days. I photographed the Kirke Family a few years ago; and this time they came back to me to mainly capture memories before their oldest daughter left […]

Not sure if you know, that I have been living in the US for almost 10 years now; and away from my home, Panama, for 13 years now. To this day, I still feel homesick; and when I do, I find comfort in either calling my loved ones (my parents, brothers, aunts, cousins, etc); and/or […]
