Digital photography & super 8 films for nostalgic souls

I specialize in capturing candid moments amongst nature and I'm obsessed with sunsets! I will literally chase them for you if I need to.

If you are looking for a fun way to capture your family, just as they are, crying babies, running toddlers, teens and dads not too thrilled about the photos, then let's connect! It'll be so fun they will want to do it again!

I also love photographing weddings, especially the really intimate and adventurous one. I really enjoy capturing you two as you are!

I can't wait to meet you to create some GOLDEN MEMORIES!

CALIFORNIA WEDDING & FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER

Hi I’m Vanessa

My approach is to create a relaxed and comfortable environment, where you can simply enjoy being present in the moment, and I can capture the true essence of who you are. My goal is to create images that not only showcase the beauty of the moment but also evoke emotions and tell a story. So, let's skip the poses and let me capture you as you are - authentic, natural, and beautiful.

Victoria & Edgar

"Where to begin! Vanessa was so helpful and awesome through the whole process. I feel like she made this whole experience as stress-free and fun as possible. Me and my fiancé wanted pictures on the beach and she delivered in a big way. The location for the photo shoot was breathtaking. The pictures came out gorgeous. I loved every bit of it. I cannot wait for her to shoot our wedding photos."

"I cannot recommend Vanessa enough for your family photo session! You have to do at least one a year! She is quick, she knows the best poses, she can capture the true essence of your family and she is AMAZING with toddlers!! Book her today and now before she is unavailable!"

Eva & Edgar

"Vanessa is amazing! She takes gorgeous photos and she’s so sweet and easy to work with. She was my photographer for my wedding and I’m so happy I chose her. Everyone was super comfortable with her and took all the shots I requested. She was always quick to respond as well. Would recommend 5 out 5!"
