HEY, I'M SANDRA. 
WIFE TO RICKY AND MAMA TWO TO BABES.
FOLLOWER OF JESUS - HUGE ON FRIENDSHIP.

-I'm an enneagram 8w7.
-Sarcasm is my love language.
-I eat Mexican food at least 3 nights a week.
-Big fan of dancing.
-I'm probably watching The Office or 30 Rock; depends on the day.
-I firmly believe in being a cat AND dog person - why can't ya love both?
-Give me all the animals please.
-At one point I had 28 plants in my house. It was a jungle.
-I will probably use a lot of exclamation points in my emails!!!!!!!! (don't be freaked  out - I'm just really excited about everything)
-If you don't like to giggle we're probably a bad fit. I think laughter is literally the best medicine.
-​I take things seriously, but like, not TOO seriously. 
-Selena Quintanilla is my actual icon of choice; perfect in unlimited ways.
-I will always have a snack on me and usually I bring one along for you!

I grew up in a small town in California south of SF and north of LA. I've always been that "can't quite figure you out" person and I don't mind it one bit.
I often make friends with elderly people at the grocery store and laugh at their jokes. It's just one of those things.
I'm usually thrifting, drinking coffee, going on a walk to pick flowers with my 4 year old, or dreaming about having all the animals.
I live by the idea that I don't have to know what I'm doing with my life, I just go as it ebbs and flows. Finding peace and joy in the mundane and knowing that the littlest moments have the biggest impact.
Actual kindness (not just the trendy kind) and considerate living is really important to me - I think it changes everything.

If you want a photographer who will be a pal, let's chat.
I'm all about making new friends.

My little family November 2020.

I can not say enough good things about Sandra! She creates such a relaxed environment that lead to beautiful, timeless, and candid moments to be captured in time. I will cherish the photos she captured and I could not be more pleased with the way they turned out. She has great communication before and after your session. She is professional and fun. I can not recommend Sandra enough!

Finding someone to capture your big day is one of the toughest things to do. When I met Sandra, I knew she would embrace every real detail of our wedding, and truly bring out the best in us. She did all of that and more, and we’ve been so thankful to have such beautiful photos to look back on. She doesn’t just take photos, she takes photos of who we are as people, and highlights on our inner beauty. Sandra is professional, kind, and very down to earth (which can be so important to nervous brides!) I’ll definitely be going to her future photography needs, and can’t recommend her work enough.

Sandra is such a sweet soul and a beautiful photographer who knows how to capture true moments that you’ll treasure forever. It’s always nice to have a photographer who knows how to navigate a larger family (and ever changing temperaments) and get honest and beautiful shots that represent each family member so well.
You’ll love Sandra as we do!
