I TOOK THE NEXT BIG STEP !

My journey started with a interest and passion for photography. My husband decided to gift me a canon rebel T3i for Christmas in 2014. From that day forward I would have never imagined the journey I was headed for. I continued to grow under the wing of my inspirational best friend Vanessa Marie. She is a wedding photographer and she really helped me to better understand how to use my camera from simply taking it off of "Auto" mode and making me use the letter "M" on my dial, which I never really paid attention to, let along did not knew what it stood for? Mean? Mono?.. Oh, that's right Manual. Duh.

With practice I really got the hang of it and put some heart, soul and sweat into it. Okay, maybe the sweat was because I was nervous but it was still sweat! I didn't know what I wanted to photograph other than my own son but I just knew the fire was burning so I expanded the horizon an explored by asking friends to model for me, photographing their families,  parties, children, babies, maternity, and I even got the opportunities to tag along as a 3rd shooter for a wedding... then BAM.. I fell in love. It was clear all along. Why not photograph what I adore the most in this world. LOVE! It was easy to see how others shared the passion and struggles of being a wedding photographer. 

Now I admit, I am not one of the great's.. yet. But I sure strive to be like my idol Jasmine Star, or even as great as my best friend Vanessa Marie. I vowed this year of 2016 I would become serious in putting my photography career out there and thanks to my biggest supporters -My husband Hector and best friend Vanessa they made sure I couldn't go back on my word. 

A BIG SPECIAL THANK YOU TO THE BOTH OF YOU. I LOVE YOU AND I AM ETERNALLY GRATEFUL FOR YOU BOTH!

This Easter of 2016 was the BIG STEP and push of becoming serious and the purchase of my beloved (second love compared to my husband, Hector) MARK the 3rd <3 Me and Mark have now been united and as I look over at Mark I cannot help but think about the adventure that is in store for me with the motto of "Oh, the places you will go"- Dr.Seuss
