"Mercedes was so good at perfecting our poses, she did so well with the timeline we hoped for and getting every photo we hoped for! She made the family-drama photos so much more comfortable and easy! I have continued to get compliments about Mercedes herself!"

“Mercedes was an absolute DREAM!!! She was filled with so much JOY- she was kind, patient, and wasn't afraid to pose us (which I appreciate- we are not models!!) Everyone I spoke to was so impressed with her attitude, her helpfulness, and just how joyful she was!!!! I cannot get over how kind she was!!! Our pictures are a TREASURE. They are each so beautiful, and I could not have asked for better photos that capture such sweet moments of our wedding day. She was SNEAKY with her photo taking!!”
Your Photographer, Advocate, and Friend.
Hi! I'm Mercedes. Beyond taking photos, my purpose is to help you feel supported, celebrated, and completely at ease. Whether it’s during a session or on your wedding day, your only task is to be present in the moment and open to having fun. I'll make sure your celebration and your memories are documented artfully and with care.
You’ll never hear me ask you to “pretend to laugh.” Instead, I’ll invite you to interact in ways that draw out your real connection, helping you forget - if only for a moment- that the camera's even there. My goal is for your images to feel alive each time you look at them, so you can relive how it felt to have your favorite people close and celebrating your love.
