The Meaning of Photography
The Heart of a Moment
A photograph captures a moment in time,
A frozen frame of memories divine.
It tells a story that words cannot say,
Of laughter, love, and life in every way.
A picture speaks a thousand words, they say,
Of beauty, wonder, and joy every day.
It holds within its frame a precious tale,
Of memories we wish would never fail.
Photography is more than just a snap,
It's capturing a feeling, a connection, a wrap.
Of all the things we hold so dear,
In a single shot, so vivid, so clear.
So when we look upon a photograph,
We see a glimpse of the past,
A reminder of the love and life we've known,
And all the joy that we've yet to be shown.
And as we hold these precious moments close,
We find the meaning, the purpose, of photography is most.
To capture the essence of life, in all its form,
And to preserve the memories that keep us warm.
“Committed to Authenity.”

It’s Perfect that you're not used to being in front of the camera!
That way, what we produce together won’t be posing, it will be REAL and AUTHENTIC.
Which is what I’m all about. The photography style that I have formed is about documenting the moment, the realness, the rawness.
It’s the energy of the moment we are in that shines through you.
Whether that be your soul purpose and the impact you create, or the beautiful and challenging moments that brought you here today.
Weaving emotion and vulnerability with humor, in a safe space where you can express yourself.
You don’t need to pose, we just flow with the feeling and document it.

What inspired me to do photography?
While I rebuild my photography website, and looking through 8 years worth of photos memories, I was struggling to put into words of why is that I’m passionate at photography, telling stories! Why am I so committed to authenticity?
So my friend Ana Norambuena spontaneously started to record me, and ask ‘Why is that I do photography?’
And it was so Raw and unperfect, I decide to share it here with you, I hope you feel the heart and soul of why I love photography and rising people ups with their gifts.

What I like about photographs is that they capture a moment that’s gone forever, impossible to reproduce.
