Client Reviews & Testimonials

  • Daniela did a beautiful job of capturing our engagement. She was so kind and professional and we loved having her be a part of this special day! We would absolutely recommend her if you are looking for a photographer near La Jolla!

    —Emily

  • We had a great family photoshoot with Daniela at La Jolla Shores, she was very professional but warm and made us feel comfortable. The photos turned out amazing and Daniela even ran with us down the beach so we could get photos with the pier before the sun set. Thank you Daniela!

    —Liora N.

  • Daniela was so easy to work with, and I love how our pictures turned out for our first family portrait. We had to reschedule due to a stomach bug, and she was extremely responsive and understanding. I highly recommend her for mini sessions with a little one!

    —Alexandra F.

  • We had a perfect family photo experience with Daniela. We appreciated her flexibility with our large family group and she was so accommodating to requests. The pictures are beautiful! She captured some magical shots at Windansea.

  • Daniela took family vacation photos on the beach and the results were amazing. She was extremely friendly and easy to talk to. She was quick to respond to all communication as well as with our final gallery. We will definitely use her again the next time we are in town and in need of a photographer. I highly recommend her.
