About Me
THANK YOU FOR STOPPING BY
Born in Venezuela and now rooted in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Asheville, I create photography that blends fine-art intentionality with soulful storytelling. As a mother of two (and keeper of a spoiled cat), I’ve learned that beauty is found in fleeting, unposed moments, the way laughter fills a room, the way a glance lingers, the way love reveals itself quietly and boldly at once.
My approach is candid, not conventional, because I believe the most powerful images are the ones that hold truth. At the same time, I love exploring playful, creative ways to make art together working on concepts and ideas beyond the unposed, so your gallery carries not only heartfelt storytelling but also a touch of editorial refinement. Each frame is an invitation: to feel, to remember, and to return to the essence of what matters most.

FINE ART WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY WITH A TOUCH OF editorial
My Philosophy
As photographers, we have the important task to create an overall experience that can make our clients feel safe, heard and portrayed in their purest form. In the years of experience in making genuine connections with clients, has led to final images that reflect my subject's satisfaction. But what really fuels my growth is the feedback that I receive at the end of each journey. I'm forever grateful and moved by the love that I have received after every session and knowing that it's just the start of connections that I get to maintain and document for years to come.

The moment you find the person who can’t take their eyes off you, glancing with the sweetest smile, you know you’ve found the one. ✨
From meeting in their college cafeteria in 2019 to hosting game nights surrounded by laughter, Gracen & Wyatt’s story is filled with warmth, joy, and the kind of love that feels like home. Together they dream of traveling the world, but on this day, it was all about holding each other close, joking, laughing, and letting their personalities shine through.
Adventurous, playful, and devoted to one another, their love radiates in every frame. Peek at some of my favorite moments captured on medium format film. Thankful for how open they were to play and have to moments with each other to connect.
Here’s to the goofy pair that makes every room brighter. 🥂💫
Alicia & Brian ✨
A romantic evening at the Biltmore. These two embody grace and romance in a way that made every frame feel alive and like a true fairytale, a perfect prelude to their wedding day ahead. I cannot wait to capture the beauty, laughter, and love that will unfold on their big day!.
All approaches to a wedding day are valid, but there’s something especially moving about a couple who chooses to carve out intentional time for creativity, connection, and intimate moments. Jaimee and Whit, both creatives and art lovers, invited me into their world with a beautiful trust that made space for slow moments and explorations. I couldn’t wait to share the results.
So grateful to have been a part of the team bringing to life such a beautiful day. 🍃
Peek at the last slide for a few moments on medium format film. I’m counting the days until I get to return to this beautiful place this fall!.
Bee & Will’s spring wedding was so so beautiful 🍃music lovers, life lovers, and soulmates surrounded by a community that adores them. Their presence is a love story I was honored to witness, and I’m so excited to finally share these moments.
Congratulations! 🍾

Self-portraiture as research, and reverence for the human body and the stories we carry.
I’m reminded of the vulnerability in being photographed. That reminder shapes the way I aim to hold space for others: with patience, gentleness, and curiosity.
Oh - and Sage 🙂 🐈⬛

Alec and Nicolette • A love story, wandering through the city, getting lost, where time and the world around stops, for a moment.

Thank you both, for sharing your story in such a magical place. 🖤 couldn’t have asked for a better way to spend a birthday weekend! @nathanrivers
Hinesh and Pratixa •
An engagement session as timeless as the Biltmore itself. 🌿
Hinesh and Pratixa’s love story under misty skies, the kind of moody, romantic day that feels like a scene from a classic film. Every moment was a reflection of their elegance, emotion, and the undeniable beauty of their connection.
Congratulations! 🥂
Kyla & Christina’s wedding was nothing short of unforgettable ✨ From the pure magic of dancing in a field of green with your favorite person to the energy on the dance floor, this day was a blast from start to finish. Their second line parade at the reception is still at the top for me, proof that it’s all about the energy we bring into the moment.
Celebrating their love, documenting their laughter, and leaving with such a beautiful connection will always stay with me. Congratulations! 🥂
A love story bathed in lush greenery, frolicking and golden light, with moments that feel like scenes from a film… ✨ Margaux & Matt’s engagement session was a dreamy blend of digital and film.
I cherish working with couples who see the artistry in this craft, it’s such a joy to share more of this side of my work with my couples and my community this season.
Counting down the days until I get to capture their beautiful fall wedding… it’s going to be pure magic. 💫
Jennifer & Tony’s wedding day was beautiful mix of playful and romantic. From their first meeting in a Chicago bar to building a life full of adventures, concerts, travel, and their beloved cat Charlie.
Surrounded by lush spring greens, and an incredibly fun group of family and friends, they said “I do” with laughter, joy, and that spark between them at the beautiful @weaverhouse_nc
Jen & Tony, photographing your day was an honor I’ll hold close for years to come. You welcomed me not just as your photographer but as a friend, and it’s couples like you who remind me why I do what I do. Here’s to a lifetime of adventures ahead! 🥂
When I’m not documenting love stories or family milestones, I’m cheering on the artists, creatives, and entrepreneurs who make Asheville so vibrant.
Creating with the radiant (inside and out) @luisa_yen at the stunning @blindtigerasheville was such a joy. On a chilly winter morning, she brought in her warmth, style, and joyful spirit.
Grateful for mornings like these and excited to share more branding sessions from this season.
Gracias, Luisa 🤍
