About Us

I’m a headshot and portrait photographer based in Nipomo. I specialize in capturing authentic expressions and real moments in a relaxed, collaborative environment. Whether I’m working with actors, professionals, creatives, or anyone looking to refresh their image, my goal is always the same: to create images that feel natural, honest, and evoke connection and engagement.

I’ve always loved interacting with people — it’s been a thread throughout my previous careers. Listening to people’s stories, learning about what makes them unique, and helping them feel relaxed in front of the camera is one of my favorite parts of this work. A lot of people have a distorted self-image, hyper-focused on perceived flaws. I help them feel at ease, be themselves, and capture the beauty that others see in them. I know the difference between a posed smile and a real one — and I know how to create an atmosphere where the real ones show up. Every face is different, every session is unique, and I love the creative challenge of combining light and ambient elements to create striking images.

I was born in Brooklyn and raised in Argentina, so I’m fluent is spanish. When I’m not in the studio, you’ll find me traveling, photographing wildlife, playing pickleball, dancing salsa, or spending time with my family. When I think about photography, I always come back to this: It’s personal, and it’s powerful. And I’m here to share that authenticity, clarity, and a little bit of magic with you.
