Firstly, I want to thank you so much for being here and allowing me the time to introduce myself to you.
I am the one behind the camera when you book with Desert Pearl Photography. Born in Imperial Beach CA and transplanted in El Paso TX, I innately have the love of salty breezes and crashing waves, but have also come to appreciate the vastness of the desert. My husband and I officially committed to Carlsbad NM in 2023 when we bought our first house. We have a son who is our whole world and who is watched by our 3 puppies and heaven babies and who is absolutely treasured by all who meet him. Currently, I am also a licensed social worker in New Mexico and Texas

When you decide to book with Desert Pearl Photography, you are my main focus and my priority. I want you to have the space where time stands still and you can be present fully enough to take a deep breath. No matter what season of life you want to celebrate or how big or small you think your event significance is, I will be behind the camera to capture your freeing emotions that lock in these core memories, making your experience unforgettable.
Since I was little, traveling with my grandparents to different states across the nation, I had the knack of living in the moment. Even more so since becoming a mama in 2023, I am captivated about the raw and unfiltered emotions in these fundamental moments of life. You will not remember everything that happens, but I am here to anchor you to your memories with candids. I am here to go with the flow and be inspired by the moments that unravel in front of me, making sure that they are intentional, lasting, and warm. I am here, for you.
And if you are waiting for the right moment, I am here to tell you it is now and only you can limit what you want me to capture
One of my first tattoos was a quote my papa wrote to me on one of my high school graduation cards, "Nothing is impossible." At first it was just meant to be encouraging writing on a card, but time after time it manifested itself during my life's hardest moments, where it officially became the motto of my life.
As I continue to learn that life is not meant to be perfect or pretty or predictable, it is delicate, it is a gift and it is meant to be treasured. In my life, my greatest pains have become my greatest strengths and as I stand behind my camera facing you, my commitment is to capture the pain and beauty that makes you, you! That all that you have endured proves you are resilient and are meant to be exactly where you are. In the moments that we are celebrating your existence, I hope to remind you that everything is possible, and it is through your own willing desire and determination that you made it to this very moment.
Desert Pearl Photography is my vow to capture your moments because you matter and are worthy!
