DIPP Photography was born out of a simple dream that so many women share: the dream to be independent. It started as a way to prove to myself and to everyone else that I could chase something huge and catch it. And I did. 

My whole life, I’ve felt like vulnerability was a weakness. But since I began photographing five years ago, I’ve learned it is a sign of tremendous strength. Now that this dream has become a reality, I can focus on the two most important people in my life—my mother and my son. They are the bookends of who I am, the one who created me and the one I created. This business is my way of saying thank you to them. They deserve the world. I want to make them so proud and I would do anything to make them happy.

Actually, making people happy is my life’s mission. I want everyone I come into contact with to walk away with a smile on their face. It’s why I love weddings so much. I get to work with people on the happiest day of their lives, helping them remember every moment of it through beautiful photos.

But I don’t always take life so seriously. I love the ocean (Miami, duh!), buying the latest gadgets, eating pizza, getting dolled up for a night out dancing, buying new books, and watching romantic movies. I live for golden hour and that smell of the earth right as it starts to rain
