Hi, I’m Patty —
photographer, hype-woman, mom of two, and a big believer that your story deserves to be celebrated.
I grew up on the coast of Spain, where the light was golden and life moved slow. I’ve always been drawn to beauty — not the perfect kind, but the kind that feels real.
Now I’m here in South Dakota, still chasing that light — this time with a camera and a heart full of gratitude that this gets to be my work.
Raised by the sea.

Inspired by you.

I didn’t set out to be a photographer. But once I picked up a camera, I couldn’t put it down.
At first it was for friends, then friends-of-friends… and then I realized: this wasn’t just a hobby. This was a way to help people see themselves the way their people already do — with love, tenderness, and awe.
Fourteen years in, and I still tear up when a client says: “I didn’t think I could feel that beautiful. But I do.”
The (Unexpected) Journey.
The (Unexpected) Journey.
The truth is, it’s not about the photos.
Whether you’re slipping into silk or walking down the aisle, I’m here to hold space for who you really are — and reflect it back with reverence.
It’s about how you feel when you see them.
