About LSP
My areas of expertise lie in family photo shoots, including maternity, newborn, engagements and milestone events. I specialize in helping create special moments to capture the true essence of you and your family.
During your session I will assist you by gently guiding you through posing and expressions using subtle prompts to make you and your family feel comfortable in front of my camera. From a whimsical, candid style shoot to a more reserved traditional style, I am here for you. When you book a session with me, I'll send you a brief questionnaire to help me get to know a little about you so that we can make these photos truly unique to you and your family.
You be you, and I’ll do the rest. I can’t wait to get you in front of my camera and start creating some beautiful memories!
Random Stuff About Me ... in case you were wondering
-
I grew up in Ventura and though I haven’t lived there in quite a few years I still have ‘roots’ there with family and friends. So it's only natural that a lot of my photography work is in the Ventura - Conejo Valley areas.
-
My Dad gave me my first camera years ago (um, before the internet and well before digital cameras were even a thing) when I lived in England so that I could send my family photographs and I haven’t stopped snapping since.
-
I am a total map geek! Yup! I can get lost for hours just reading maps (metaphorically, obvs!) True!
-
Family and friends, art galleries and museums are my fav things. Perhaps a bit cliché but so true.
-
I joined Professional Photographers of America to continue my education and keep up with the latest trends and standards of practice in the photography world.
-
I worked for many years in the medical field before my photography hobby morphed into my full-time business.
-
I’ve written and photographed recipe books for family members as well as family history and ancestry books.
-
I am proud to be a third a generation Mexican-American on my Dad’s paternal side of the family.
-
It’s taken me a long time to write about “me” because I’d much rather talk about you. Really.
