Pin Up Session

I just finished post processing my first pin up session! I have been wanting to do a pin up shoot for the longest. At first, my model and I had planned to do a pin up at the beach with swimsuits and polka dot dresses. It ended up raining, (Bummer) so we arranged on meeting at her house and do the session there. Her living room fit the theme pretty well, although the lighting was not all that great we still managed to get some good shots. We will definitely reschedule the pin up at the beach once the weather is better in San Diego! =) Take care.

Mommy and Me Session

Hi all,

Yesterday, I had a fun shoot with an old friend from college and her 3 year old son. The sun was up but the wind made it cold. Baby Eddie, was on his best behavior and loves pictures. Every time I would snap some photos of him, he would ask me to show him the photo before we could take more. =) My boyfriend Carlos, who is also my assistant, and I thought it was funny every time I would say "Smile" He would say "Smile" instead of actually smiling. He is the cutest! We got some pretty good shots of this session, I can't wait to show you the results. For now, here is a preview, enjoy!

Hi all,

A few days ago, I did a fun swimwear photoshoot with model Isabella Livingston! She is a really fun and sweet person. I love working with her and getting really nice shots!

Christmas Fairy lights

Hi all,

On Saturday, I did another fairy lights photoshoot! I swear I am obsessed with lights right now! =) This one was a bit of a challenge for me because kids love to mess around and some of them don't like pictures! Like baby Giordan, every time he saw my camera, he would frown and not cooperate. I thought it was funny! It's okay though because it was fun! I just let kids be kids and capture their natural unposed moments! These photos are of my assistant #2 Laura and her almost 2 year old son! Enjoy <3

Finishing up 2016

Hi all,

This year is coming to a close and I have to say, I have learned so much! I started photography May of this year. Although I have much more to learn, each photoshoot I do, I learn from. This month, I am focusing on Christmas sessions and fairy light sessions as well. I have 2 more sessions scheduled before I close my year with photoshoots. I have had a wonderful experience and have met a lot of interesting people. I am excited to what is coming my way 2017 and on. Thanks to all my supporters, my boyfriend and assistant #1 Carlos, assistant #2 Laura, and my friends and family that keep cheering me on. I couldn't do this without you. Lets finish off the year strong, and create amazing memories😁

Meet Daisy

Hi all,

Today I would like to formally introduce myself ! My name is Daisy and I go by "Daze". I am 23 years, born and raised in San Diego California ! :D I am a happy and hyper person, it is rare when you don't see me smiling or laughing.One of my favorite things to do other than take photos, is EAT! I am a skinny girl with a HUGE appetite. :) My boyfriends' name is Carlos and he is also my assistant in photography! He enjoys helping me with my photo sessions and I love it because together we make a great team!I also have a second assistant and her name is Laura. She is my creative side, always looking to get creative with my sessions, I am extremely thankful for them! I love photography for many reasons, one of them being 'what better way to explain to others what you just experienced than to show them through your images!' I would love to travel someday for photoshoots, and in order for that to happen, I have to work really hard to be the best I can be! :D Something I go by everyday to reach my goals is "Why not lead your dreams instead of following them?" I will be posting a photo with my amazing team soon. :)

Traveling for Photoshoots

Hi All,

Many people have asked me if I would travel out of state for photoshoots and my answer is YES! I am a person who LOVES to travel and try new things all of the time. There are many locations that I would love to visit. If I could, I would visit the whole world just to get to know different cultures and people. One of my main places to cross off my checklist to do photoshoots at is Japan! I have seen so many breath taking photos and videos of friends and family who have visited Japan. I know that my lens, my boyfriend and I would enjoy Japan very much that we would probably want to stay. There's other places that I would love to visit as well like Los Cabos, Cancun, Puerto Rico, Spain, Paris, China, Hawaii and the list goes on! I can't wait until I get the opportunity to travel and take my lens with me so I can show you all how beautiful the world is.

Take Care, Daze <3

How my Photography Journey Began

Everyone has their own story of how they began doing what they love. Whether that is, playing a sport, crafting, working out, photography and so forth. I would have never thought that I would ever be a photographer! I have a younger brother who is a photographer. When he was starting out, I was one of his models that he would practice his work on. Like most girls, I was flattered that I could help model for him, I love pictures! One day, out of curiosity, I grabbed his camera while he showed me the photos that he took of me. I started messing around with the settings on the camera, although, I had no idea what I was doing. As I was looking at the photos, he asked me “What other poses do you want to do?”. I realized that he had no idea how to pose people yet. From that day forward, he asked me to accompany him to his photo sessions and help pose his clients. I enjoyed helping him and seeing his clients leave happy with the results that I fell in love with photography! Now that I am also a part- time photographer, my brother and I help each other out with upcoming photoshoots. We are always brainstorming ideas to improve our photos.I did not go to school to learn photography, as much as I wanted to, I was too busy with my full-time job.I have learned what I know now, through watching my brother, watching videos on you tube and most importantly, going out and taking photos every single day!
