About my passion for documenting life

I grew up in Venezuela, South America, with immigrant parents who always taught me to be myself, enjoy life and to focus on priorities. Unfortunately, I lost my father before entering adulthood, which was a tough time for me. This pushed me to start a self discovery journey through workshops and therapy to finally find my passion and be happy with who I am. Now, after having 3 kids, divorcing and remarrying to the love of my life, I discovered my passion for documenting life and telling stories, because we all have one...

I believe in the power of good storytelling for creating an impact in the world. I believe I am cultivating the magic in me and discovering the magic in every person, family, situation and story. I capture the best moments and turn them into timeless pieces to show the world and to cherish forever.
