Welcome! I’m Manuel, and I’ve been photographing the world around me for over 15 years. My BFA in Photography sharpened my creative eye and built a strong technical foundation. I specialize in portraits and events. I truly enjoy finding ways to photograph people in a way that feels authentic. A single photo can share the joy, become a keepsake, or elevate your professional image. Let’s create a one-of-a-kind profile photo that captures your individuality.

Before every photo session, I prefer to have a conversation to allow us to get to know each other. It is essential for me to ensure every client feels comfortable and is able to express their hopes for the finished product. I treat my work as a partnership. Without your input, thoughts, and a discussion, I only have half the picture.

I take pride in getting to know you, hearing what makes you unique, and sharing your ideas about this special moment. Then comes the lens, providing an opportunity to capture you, your loved ones, and your day at its best. I’ve captured everything from headshots and vibrant portraits to graduations, engagements, anniversaries, weddings, community events, and family portraits. Planning something different? I’d love to hear about it! I am always open to new ideas, and have the experience to photograph them authentically. No pressure, or up front commitment, let’s chat and see if we’re the right fit.

Start the conversation below with any questions or your scheduled date. I’d be honored to help you commemorate your special occasion!
