born in puerto rico. raised in new jersey. currently📍 in austin, texas.
i've always enjoyed capturing memories + taking pictures, but i didn't discover that i had a real knack for it until my mid-twenties. i am completely self-taught and deeply enjoy sharing the world from my perspective, through my lens.
in 2010, i started my own photography business called eloquently so photography. starting my own business has allowed me to photograph weddings, engagement shoots, family sessions, senior portraits, and more! eventually, i decided to let go of the fancy business name because it didn't feel right anymore. i grew out of it and wanted to make sure my work represented who i am and the story i want to tell.
today, i’m happily photographing people in a lifestyle setting capturing honest smiles and candid profiles. i’m grateful for the humans (and pets!) that i get to meet through my work. i’m inspired by who they are and the courageous stories they share. my hope is to capture what's raw, real, and to celebrate you!
when i’m not photographing people, some of my favorite things to capture are pets, street art. and nature. some photographers that i admire and inspire me are Jamie Beck, Sally Mann, and Brooke Shaden.
i’m a latina and proud B in the LGBTQIA+ community 🏳️🌈 , enneagram 2w3 and INFJ. i live in North Austin with my shih tzu mix, Charlie. i spend most of my free time traveling, listening to podcasts (The Mel Robbins Podcast is currently one of my faves), looking for the best queso & mexican martini in austin, and rocking out to 90s jams at karaoke. when i'm not behind the screen editing photos, i work full time as a sales enablement manager for a cyber security company.
interested in doing a photo shoot? contact me or check out my FAQ for more info.
i look forward to meeting you and learning more about your vision.
let’s create some magic together :)
