◖ I just updated my travel schedule. And got goosebumps + a single happy tear falling down my face. Not because GOT ended, well that too, but because of how life has a way of giving you exactly what your soul needs, precisely when it needs it. 〰️ I used to dream about having a corporate job 💼 on which I wore a really cute tailored Devil wears Prada outfit to work. And I dreamt of ✈️ traveling cross country with it, fixing troubles, providing solutions and growing from it. But it was all about work, satisfaction and ambition. I somehow didn’t visualize people in it, real people. Real joy, real hugs (because it’s highly unlikely that CEO’s would be hugging and crying about how well I did my job). You cute softie CEO’s... ― And I did for awhile, live in the corporate world, worked my way from event planner in a 5 star hotel in Madrid, to Customer Satisfaction Management to Marketing Director for a large state automobile group in Mexico, and finally as Commercial Director in a production company. 📈 Yep, that was me, tons of long titles, and happy to be doing my job, but something was missing. ― Joy. 💫 Of creating. Of exploring. Of discovering I was capable of more. And of shaking of fear of trying. I was changing my career on my thirties, and going heart first and feet after. ― And guess what? It worked like a charm. Just because my heart was set on it. 👊🏻 So I changed my tailored pants for denim, and my makeup for a fresh sunkissed face. I was happy. Genuinely high vibing happy, and still am. 👣I travel cross country in my flats and am currently reading a novel my neighbor gave me just because. I am satisfied, but still crave success in healthy ambition. And above all I am filled with human energy, real positive love, every weekend, by doing what I love. ❤️ Thank you for giving me that! Bye now 👋🏻
〰️ Then to be born again. Into a thousand suns. And a thousand moons. ☾ I could pretty much caption this with a dot and we’d still be drooling over Kat’s dress and her perfect silver gray moon hair color. Queen and Mother of Dragons in one gorgeous bride!
// Oaxacking: mezcal, café and guitars, while doing all in true MEXICAN style. 🌵 (I really just make words up for fun lol). But IF it did exist, it would totally be including this groom and his groomsmen walking through Santo Domingo, a 470 year old church in downtown Oaxaca, while living every inch of this perfect mexican town. 🎉 Oaxaca, you have my heart! ❤️(swipe left to see it all)
〰️ Castles, medieval ruins and thrones. ♖ It’s all we’re thinking about these days. ♚ April 14 come already! #gameofthrones
Things I would cram into ONE perfect happy hour (that have really nothing to do next to each other + totally politically incorrect, but hey, it’s MY happy hour 😜) ✘ St. Germain spritz, anywhere! ✘ High tea sandwiches (all of them, tonS of them) from The Garden Court at SF 🥪 ✘ Truffle french fries with parmesan goodness from Valle de Guadalupe’s Vena Cava and a Baja red wine from 🍷 Santo Tomás ✘ Goat cheese and dried fruit croquettes with honey + melon from Madrid’s El Perro y la Galleta 🍯🍈 ✘ Tiny tlayuda with black beans and secret salsa from Oaxaca’s Criollo🌮 ✘ Mexico City’s Blanco Castelar perfect pastry with apricot jam and chile piquín🧀 ✘ Tulum’s The Real Coconut chilimole shrimp tostadas (that would probably would raise an eyebrow from the Garden Court SF sandwiches 😜)🍤🥥 ✘ Kisses in the Car mezcal cocktail from Gitano’s🍹 ✘ Also Huachicol cocktail (yes, they made a name out of it) in San Miguel de Allende’s Atrio ✘ All my friends, bae, family, dogs, everyone sharing this food feast/happy hour with me. Plus I would def need tons of people to carry me to the ER after the food coma I would go into 😂 lol! ———— ———— What’s your favorite drink/appetizer?!
— Me: OMG!!! this location, these trees, the lightttt, the suuun, the ALL! Let’s stay here forever, let’s have the wedding here, no words (when I actually still have ten thousand coming but am smiling to widely to let them out lol) — What a bride might be thinking: This photog I hired might be crazy, but she seems so excited and is kinda funny, so let’s see what she creates. This spot is actually kinda cool. 🙌🏻😅 Soo may this serve as a disclaimer if you see me getting overexcited about a location 😜 and blurting words and all. It will happen every time ►❤️
Early morning between airports, a croque madame at my fave Mexico City spot, and the fact that I finally micromanaged my stuff (arigato Marie Kondo) and got everything to fit in my carry on. 🙈 So thanks to that, my laptop and I are just about to finish editing this italian extravaganza. It REALLY doesn’t get any better than riding in the wind with newlyweds! ⺌
I shared a wedding with one of my bf’s last night. 📽 Back to the future we met at photography school 8 years ago - where we mainly laughed all day at class, drank props (lighting and studio module did require cold beer to be photographed sooo) and spent breaks eating carbs at the school cafeteria talking about work, life, guys and Kardashians. 📸 Photography kinda brought us together, and we’ve remained friends over the years, sharing many weddings, love stories and travel adventures. So after dropping her off at her house last night while we both munched on bags of chips, I remembered Julia and Alex’s wedding, and how much we’ve done over the years. 🙏🏻 I am forever grateful for all the people photography has put on my path, from teachers, colleagues, clients, creatives, and friends. Having a business partner is always rad, but having rooting photog friends who wil laugh, cry and love the same dresses you do at weddings is priceless. Can’t wait for new adventures to come! ✨❤️
