💍 it was a regular Monday afternoon when the phone began to ring! Not thinking anything of it I picked it up, little did I know an excited nervous babbling Jacob Urena would be on the other line. Full of joy and eagerness Jacob couldn’t wait to let me know that he was ready to Propose but one thing was missing THE PLAN!

We began with a basic details and over weeks of conversing back and forth it blossomed into a full blown plan. Jacob landed on his dream proposal site and idea now it was simply time for ex*****on!

I want to thank Jacob Urena & Nicole 🧿 for allowing/trusting me to capture such a special day! The love was transparent and could be felt all throughout the venue. I wish you all nothing but the best and look forward to Wedding Day 📸

Ever wonder what it’s like being a photographer during a proposal session?

It starts long before the camera gets picked up.

Secret planning. Scouting locations. Watching the clock. Staying hidden. Making sure everything is in place for one life changing moment.

Then suddenly, the nerves settle, time slows down, and a new chapter begins.

Here’s a behind the scenes look at how this surprise proposal came together. 💍

Spoiler alert: She said yes. ❤️

📸 I’d love to thank & the for allowing me to capture a handful of their latest products! I truly had fun with this one. Stepped away from the usual session and took my focus off of people and honed my talents and craft into products.

The thing about capturing entrepreneurs and businesses is I always need to capture their products as well as the the staff! Their products are as much part of their journey and story as they are. This one was fun and I can’t wait to get back out there for more! 🍃

📸 A few months ago was stuck in the middle of a hard decision. Should she throw her daughter a Sweet 16 or should she capture portraits of her for memory?! Undecided she confided in my long time friend and client ! He suggested she do the portraits and that she HAD to get them done with me! As you can imagine when I received the phone call I was ECSTATIC! This wasn’t a typical portrait session but one that oozed of creativity. When I heard all the ideas the two of them had my brain began to get to work.

“We should do this pose” and “Ooh, look at this cool pose I found.” After months of brain storming it was finally shoot day and I was once again blown away. The attention to detail & put into this shoot was truly amazing. From the spray painted bat to the bedazzled baseball just … WOW! Now it was up to me to capture the portraits and bring the vision to life.

As an athlete who played both basketball & baseball growing up I couldn’t wait to begin. We started with simple poses and as the camera continued to snap I witnessed & Khloe exhale! I could feel the tension leave their bodies and their minds say “ok he got us, he gets our vision! This all wasn’t a waste.” It was a session full of laughs, smiles and overall positive energy. This was their very first shoot ever and I was overjoyed to be the one to introduce them to the field.

It is session like these and many others that fill me with passion! My clients are so talented and creative I have to bring my A Game! Whether I capture images for a mother to look back at and reminisce her baby girl or headshots for professionals to stare at and boldly dream of possibilities/open doors no opportunity goes unnoticed and I am forever grateful for them all! To have such an impact on people’s lives is a blessing and I do not take it for granted.

So if you’ve been waiting in the background thinking “hey should we shoot these family portraits?” Or “Is it time to take new head shots?” Take the leap and book with us! I promise you’ll be taken care of 🙏🏽
