MY PURPOSE AS A WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER
I didn't realize how important and irreplaceable photos are until they were all I had.
I see life through a completely different lens.
I became a photographer after suddenly losing my Father tragically. He was a Colombian politician assassinated at the early age of 48.
The grief of losing my Father led me to a passion for photography.
The day my Father died, all I wanted were his pictures and to see him again, even if just in a printed photograph.
The photos of my parent’s wedding are the most precious gift I could have ever inherited. These remarkable pictures are an heirloom to me. These black and white photos were taken on the day of my parent’s wedding in Bogota, Colombia.
I wish my Daddy could have seen what my business has grown into.
I miss him more than words can explain.
It has been 18 years, and these photographs always bring me comfort and peace. This is how I want to remember him. The precious memories from their wedding day have been a healing comfort that Jesus gave me while grieving.

Where does my inspiration come from?
The true love story of a widow that never remarried.
My biggest inspiration as a wedding photographer comes from my parent's wedding, their timeless black and white photographs, and my Mom's love story.
From the day they became one with the blessing of God until Dad left this world for heaven, 43 years later, my Mom Analu showed her genuine love for my Dad, Carlos Javier.
He was her first and only love. My Momma widowed young at the early age of 48 and never remarried. Her faithful and only love remains until this day 🖤
My parents' wedding pictures have been preserved for over 40 years.
Every year on my Dad's birthday, I listen to Andrea Bocelli, one of his favorite musicians, flip through my parent's wedding albums and photos. It has become a comforting tradition!
unchanged by time ~ PRESERVED LEGACY
I always find peace in these precious, invaluable, timeless black-and-white photos from their wedding day. I have the opportunity to reminisce on these special memories.
This is what matters most to me the most. His Legacy.
These are their original wedding prints. Timeless black and white photographs were created, printed, and preserved in 1980.
MY MISSION AS A PHOTOGRAPHER
I have learned that my photographs
will only truly be appreciated years from now.
Photography was my outlet; it became a tool to battle depression while grieving the loss of my Father.
Losing my Father created and framed the way I view photography and the duty I have as a photographer.
One day, my legacy will be that I helped create beautiful photographic memories of people in a time that was precious to them. I desire those photographs to become an heirloom for generations, like my parent's and grandparents' photos.
Capturing memories that stand the test of time and become a gift to your children as heirlooms fulfill my purpose as an artist and give me great joy.
I want to help you to preserve your wedding day in a meaningful way so that your story can continue to be told for years to come. Like I did with my parents' precious heirloom.
My desire is to create these photographs for your wedding.
Please reach out to me and learn more about my approach to photography and how we can work together.
I was my Daddy's little girl!
He was a very generous gentleman with a serving heart and a passion for people and the community around him. He served his country as a Politician in Colombia.
His voice was silenced, and he was assassinated in 2004 because of political corruption.
The photographs I have from Daddy are printed in black and white and are the most precious and valuable memories I have.
Looking back and preserving these photographs of our family is valuable to me. Is everything!
Now, I invite you to learn more about my story and get to know me a little more!
