Your Questions, Answered:

I photograph a wide range of events, including:
Catholic Weddings
Catholic Masses and sacramental ceremonies
Quinceañeras
Family or lifestyle sessions
Senior portraits
Funerals
If your event is something different, feel free to ask!
-
Not at all! You don’t need to be Catholic to book portraits, family sessions, seniors, milestones, or events with me. Families of all backgrounds are welcome. However, when it comes to weddings and sacramental ceremonies, I exclusively photograph Catholic wedding Masses and Catholic sacraments. This is rooted in my deep reverence for the Sacrament of Matrimony and the liturgical beauty of the Church.

Booking is confirmed with a signed contract and deposit.
I recommend booking 6–12 months in advance for weddings.
Other events (such as Baptisms, Quinceañeras, family sessions) may have shorter lead times, but it’s always best to inquire early and as soon as your event’s date is set!
-
Yes! I offer hourly coverage packages, as well as custom options depending on the event and your needs.
Wedding packages typically include a set number of hours and a digital gallery with edited images.
Additional hours can be added on the day of the event at $150 per hour.

Yes, I do offer payment plans! To make things more flexible, payments can be broken up into installments. However, please note that the full balance is due no later than 2.5 weeks before your event or session.

Yes! I’m based in Brentwood, CA, but I am very much willing to travel to capture special events.

-
My focus and experience are on Catholic weddings and sacramental ceremonies. I specialize in capturing the reverence, traditions, and beauty of the Catholic faith. If your ceremony follows a Catholic Mass / Liturgy, I would be honored to document it!
-
I approach every wedding day with a servant’s heart and a deep respect for the sacredness of what is taking place. My goal is to be a calm and peaceful presence for you. While also being attentive to the meaningful details, while never distracting from the moments themselves.
During the ceremony, especially the Holy Mass, I am intentional about remaining discreet and reverent. Throughout the rest of the day, I may gently guide when needed, but also make it a point to allow space for genuine, candid joy, to unfold naturally!
