Oh Hello there!
Well, it's me, Michelle! the gal behind the lens. My husband bought me my first DSLR camera in 2011, I taught myself and I haven’t put it down since. After a few years of shooting pretty much everything, including weddings…...I felt a call and passion for families and maternity. Motherhood is a gift, it’s who I am and this is something that connects me with my clients. It brings me joy and allows me to run my business with a family oriented mind and heart.
You’re in the right place!
Peace is my passion.
The world is my muse.
My favorite thing about being a photographer
I want to create authentic and timeless imagery for you to cherish. I want to help tell your story, and by you I mean the REAL you -- your kids, and your real love and bond.
Every session is unique and special to me, so all I require is that you show up as yourselves and let your inner joy shine. Embrace the chaos and the sunshine, be ready to explore and adventure.
connecting through family, motherhood, emotion & love.

I am a friendly introvert that loves the mountains and the sea, they are my favorite places to be -- my happy place. i love the sunshine and chasing sunsets. adventure calls my name and i love learning new things.

I was born and raised in San José, Costa Rica, one the happiest countries in the world. I'm fluent in Spanish and I'm forever a "Pura Vida" girl. I absolutely love culture, it connects me with people. I lived in Arizona for almost two decades and found that my soul latched onto the Southwestern vibes & desert skies.
