When I am not behind the camera or computer, you can find me at home, likely outside with my girls, soaking up the sun or having dance parties in the family room.
I'm happiest when my family goes camping, we frequently spend time at the river. Catch me in a float with a White Claw in hand, jamming out to country music. I am a sucker for all things Fall and Christmas - give me cold weather and cozy sweaters all day.
I love home decor and doing DIY projects. Coffee is my love language and I have a thing for cute coffee mugs. I can quote Friends like no other and I am a hardcore Harry Potter and Taylor Swift fan.
I’ve lived in Southern California my whole life, but my soul is meant for the snowy mountains.
Hey there, I'm Monica
The Girl behind the lens
I'm passionate about
capturing
life's moments
These are my people and the main inspiration for picking up my camera in the first place. One of my biggest goals in life is to constantly document my children through all the different seasons of life. I want to relive these precious moments years from now, when they've grown, moved out of the house and started families of their own.
It is such an honor knowing I get to play a part in preserving your precious memories. Time is such a thief, our kids never stop growing. Life is busy, but these moments are fleeting.
Moments turn into memories, so document them while you can.

My Vision
Here's the deal. I am most passionate about capturing all the big and small moments in your life. From your engagement, to your "I dos" and all the moments that come after. Maternity, babies to family. I want to be there to capture all your magical moments in life, as you grow and change. What I am all about is documenting your legacy, your forever memories. What sets me apart is that I build relationships, not just clients. My clients turn into friends real quick and it's such an honor to be apart of their story, even in the smallest of ways.

I do not even know where to begin! Monica was seriously a blessing to work with for my wedding from beginning to end. When I reached out to her to inquire her work she sent me very detailed information to learn her style and what to expect working together. Speaking with Monica she was extremely organized, prompt to answer questions, and truly catered to what my husband and I were wanting out of our wedding photos. My husband and I are not very much "camera people", that being said, we are not comfortable with posing and were a little nervous for the big day, but Monica and her team made us feel SO COMFORTABLE. She made it fun, exciting, and feel so effortless! She captured our love so elegantly in our photos, these are moments I am so grateful she had captured! My photos look something out of a wedding catalog! If you are lookin for a photographer, I HIGHLY recommend booking Monica for your special moments, you will not regret it. We have found our photographer for all of our future special moments! Thank you so much, Monica!

Monica was an absolute joy to work with! She was one of the BEST decisions we made for our wedding day. She has an incredible eye for detail and was quick at responding to any question or concern we had. Prior to our wedding day, my husband and I had never taken professional pictures so we were feeling a little nervous about it. All that went away as soon as we met Monica. She’s the kindest and so much fun. We are forever grateful for her. Thank you Monica for the most stunning pictures we can look back on. You captured our family and our day so beautifully and perfectly.
