When a study-abroad trip to Costa Rica leads to love and creating a family...
I am Laura.
I am Laura.
Hola! I am a dance party lover, long conversation enthusiast and wedding photographer documenting joyful and true love stories!
My photography is authentic and meant to stand the test of time.
I am all about the genuine emotions and moments that tell your story, in the most beautiful and honest way. More than perfectly constructed photos, photos to aid your real memories on how it all felt.
forever in love with people and the connections that bring us together. I BELIEVE PHOTOGRAPHY IS THE PUREST FORM OF STORYTELLING.

01
I have been capturing love stories for over 12 years! I started in Costa Rica while I was studying Photography and Art
02
I specialize in colorful, candid and emotional photos that are art inspired. ! I'd truly love to help bring your vision to life.
03
From our first contact to consultation and the final delivery of your photos, I want you to have a experience that is not only professional, but personal and enjoyable.

Every photo you receive is edited ! To add that little bit of spice, I often add detailed retouching beyond the standard edits of light, color and contrast.
I'm so grateful you are considering me as your wedding photographer! I approach each wedding as if I'm capturing my own! I understand the importance of spending this day with your most important people. I also deeply understand the intricacies, the emotions and the beautiful rhythm of weddings (and I am great with big groups of people)
All of the photos reflect the love.
Laura went above and beyond to capture our wedding day. We had a few special requests, like some photos with our dog and photos of each table, and she took these in stride. We wanted the focus of the photography to be on our families, since we are rarely in one place at one time, and I feel like she succeeded in this 100% - all of the photos reflect the love and importance of family togetherness.

Super creative and fun
Laura was so wonderful as the photographer for our wedding. She made us both feel so comfortable and made everything feel as natural as possible. Laura is super creative and fun to be around. She made my wedding day better and hiring her was the best decision I made for my wedding day - besides saying I do to my groom!
