Finding a balance between my 9-5, my photography sessions and illustration seems to be a juggling act I’m still trying to ace. My momma got on me yesterday for drawing while watching a movie. “This isn’t how you relax”.
“But, I am relaxing, I can be productive and relax at the same time”
She just looked at me and laughed. I continued to watch my movie and draw at the same time.

Photography: Mommy & Amaury
Capture all the memories. Yes, I’m the aunt running around with a camera, trying to make sure I catch it all. These kids are growing so fast, and it’s my job to make sure we never forget the little fingers, the innocent smiles, and the adorable little dimples. Since Amaury will be turning one soon, My sister Jula wanted me to photograph her mini me.
I’ve been dipping my toe in studio photography, and it’s a different world from natural lighting (out door photography). I have to learn how to manipulate and create light where it didn’t exist before. Not to mention, doing that while I have a squirming baby who wasn’t really in the mood to stay still. I told Jula to hop in the picture to make Ama feel a little more comfortable, and will you look at that, it actually worked!
I still have a lot to learn, and I’ll get there in due time, but for now, I’m pretty happy that my sister loved all the pictures, and I get to call that a win!
PS. Amaury’s all white outfit was provided by my trip to Cuba last year, and he has finally grown into it, pero que caballero!
Muchos besos,
Photography: Love from Atlanta
This weekend I was commissioned for a last minute gig… I mean like super last minute. I packed up my bag and ran out the door.
This lovely couple came to NYC from Atlanta, and that’s all I knew beforehand.
When I arrived, Darnell and Z were waiting for me inside a gorgeous Rolls Royce. It was Darnell’s birthday and it was a night to be celebrated.
This couple was so sweet and so affectionate towards each other. I loved how happy they were to just being together. It was as if it was just them against the world.
I wish them nothing but the best in their future. Thanks for letting me a part of your special day.

Illustration: Lemon
My new illustration Lemon, is one of my recent pieces commissioned by the lovely Monica. She was looking for a cute way to splurge on herself as a birthday treat. I wanted to give this drawing a geometric feel to it, and I’m so excited that she loved it so much!
If you’re interested in your own portrait you can contact me here.
Best wishes Monica!
Love,
