This is my process:

I. Reach Out to Us.

Fill out the form or reach out by email or WhatsApp, and let’s begin this beautiful journey together. I’ll send over my wedding collections or family session options so you can explore what feels right for you.


If you love what you see, we’ll schedule a call to dive deeper into your vision, answer all your questions, and truly connect — getting to know you is honestly my favorite part. 

II. Book the date.

When everything feels aligned, and we know we’re the perfect fit, we’ll secure your date with a signed agreement and a 30% retainer.


From that moment on, I’m here for you. I want you to feel completely safe and confident — knowing I’m not just your photographer, but someone genuinely in your corner. This moment in your life is so meaningful, and I’ll be right by your side, supporting you every step of the way.

III. Creating & Delivering memories.

Finally, we are here.

Such an exciting day — and I can’t help but feel like your personal cheerleader.


I’ll be quietly observing everything: you, the atmosphere, and the love surrounding you. The big laughs and the shy ones, the nervous glances, the warm hugs from family and friends. I’ll laugh with you… And I will definitely cry with you.


I’m all about the feelings — and that’s exactly why weddings and families hold such a special place in my heart.


You will receive a preview of your big day within two weeks, and your full gallery 8–12 weeks later. Everything will be delivered in a beautiful online gallery where you can download, share, and print your memories in high resolution.

Frequent Asked Questions

Where are you based and do you travel?

I'm in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, and I love to travel! If you want me to document your session or wedding outside the capital, please let me know; most likely, it will require lodging and travel fee, depending on where it takes place.

How many pictures will we receive?

Weddings: For a 10 hours coverage wedding, you will receive between 700 to 1000 fully edited images.
Sessions: For 1-2 hours sessions, you will receive between 50-100 fully edited images.

How do we book?

I need a signed contract and a 30% non-refundable retainer to reserve your date. Unfortunately, I cannot hold any dates without the signed contract, retainer, travel fees, and lodging. You must pay the remaining 70% 7-30 days before the reserved date.

When will we get our photos?

Your will receive an online gallery link with all your photos within maximum 8 weeks (sometimes less depending on the season I photograph your story). You can download all the photos from the gallery but also share them, choose your favorites, and also order prints!

Can I see a full gallery of your work?

YES, YES, YES. What I show on my social media and website isn't always a complete representation of an entire session or wedding day. I'd love nothing more for you to look through a few full galleries of sessions and weddings I've recently delivered to clients. A good idea of what your photographs will look like is essential.
