PORTFOLIO

Balancing style and elegance
with a sense of intimacy and calm

My secret is a perfect balance between my connection with my clients, and my technical prowess and artistic vision. Collaborating with top designers and creatives, I invite my personal interests in fashion, design, travel, and — of course — art to shape the modern, sophisticated images that define my work. Bringing your vision to life is my number one priority. Every interaction with me is artisanal, thoughtful and detailed. I will lead you with a sense of purpose and awareness so that you feel a sense of security and trust at every turn.

This chic wedding was inspired by the vibrant gardens of the Montecito Club and the American Riviera in Santa Barbara. With its lush gardens decorated with bougainvillea, olive groves, and Spanish mission style architecture, it’s the perfect setting for a couple looking for classic elegance combined with a modern mediterranean feel in Southern California.
