El Encanto Eterno del Rosa Pastel en las Quinceañeras 🌸✨

Hay algo verdaderamente mágico en el color rosa pastel. Es más que un simple color: es una emoción, una declaración, un reflejo del corazón de cada joven que celebra su quinceañera. Desde hace generaciones, el rosa pastel ha sido un símbolo de elegancia, dulzura y sofisticación — un clásico que ha resistido la prueba del tiempo y sigue siendo una elección favorita entre quienes desean lucir radiantes en su gran día.

Este tono suave, muchas veces acompañado por detalles dorados o perlas, logra un equilibrio perfecto entre la juventud y la madurez. No es solo una tendencia pasajera: representa el momento exacto en el que una niña comienza a convertirse en mujer, entre sueños de infancia y nuevas aspiraciones. El rosa pastel transmite inocencia, pero también confianza; tradición, pero con un toque moderno que nunca pasa desapercibido.

Como fotógrafos de quinceañeras en Little Rock, Arkansas, hemos tenido el privilegio de capturar muchas celebraciones hermosas, pero hay algo especial cuando una quinceañera elige vestir de rosa pastel. La luz, los tonos, los detalles… todo se alinea para crear imágenes que parecen sacadas de un cuento de hadas. Cada sesión es única, pero este color tiene el poder de añadir un brillo suave y romántico a cada toma.

A lo largo de los años, hemos construido una colección visual que muestra la belleza de este color en distintas locaciones, estilos y personalidades. Desde sesiones al aire libre entre flores, hasta ambientes elegantes en salones decorados con luces cálidas, el rosa pastel siempre se adapta y resalta la esencia de cada quinceañera.

Si estás planeando tu sesión y el rosa pastel es parte de tu visión, déjanos ayudarte a capturar ese momento con todo el amor, detalle y arte que merece. Porque algunos colores simplemente nunca pasan de moda — y este es uno de ellos.

The Color Purple: A Rare & Regal Choice for Quinceañeras 💜

There’s something undeniably captivating about the color purple. It’s not just a beautiful shade — it carries meaning. For centuries, purple has symbolized royalty, elegance, creativity, and transformation. It’s a color that stands out, not just because of its rich tone, but because of the powerful energy it brings with it.

When it comes to quinceañeras, we don’t see purple gowns often — and that’s exactly why they leave such a lasting impression. It’s one of the rarest color choices our team gets to photograph, and every time we do, it’s pure magic. Whether it’s a deep royal purple or a soft lavender, this color brings a sense of uniqueness and individuality that perfectly matches the energy of a young woman stepping into a new chapter of life.

At our quinceañera sessions, our goal is to highlight more than just the dress — we capture the personality, the elegance, and the transformation behind it all. When a girl chooses purple for her big day, she’s making a statement. And we’re here to make sure that moment is frozen in time through stunning, elegant imagery that reflects just how special she truly is.

If you're planning your quince and purple speaks to you — whether it’s the boldness, the beauty, or the meaning behind it — we’d love to help bring that vision to life.

Because every queen deserves to be remembered just as powerfully as she felt on her big day. 👑📸

Jackie + Balta

How time has passed. Jackie and I met back in middle school and naturally being 2 out of the 8 latinos in the school we became friends. The other 6 were my cousins.

For as long as I know Jackie and balta have been together. Is there a term other than highschool sweetheart? For someone you met before that time?

Anyways, when I got the call that they were getting married through the church, I was so thrilled that they chose me. She explained to me how they were doing and planning everything and I couldn’t have imagined it any better. It was so fun, the music was great and the food hit. If you haven’t partied with Michoacanos, I definitely recommend it.

Enjoy the photos!

Katherine + Jose ( 3rd wedding of the year?)

I don’t often do weddings but when I do, I sometimes think: we don't think about how cool it is that we're all alive at the same time together enough.

Im sorry for click baiting you, anyways enjoy the photos.

Danny + Jessie

Danny & Jessie got married this year. This was hands down my favorite wedding of the year. I may or may not be biased on this decision. I have been friends with them for a very long time. More than a few years. Fun Fact: I also covered her twin sister’s wedding about a year ago. I don’t have a bucket list but this inspired me to create a photo bucket list. The first one checked off the list: Shoot twins’ weddings.

Shout out to them for bearing the blisteringly cold wind on that day. Also on this day we broke the traditional stair photos at the capital and tried a different angle. I loved the turnout of these photos and I hope yall enjoy them too!

Anyways, enjoy these photos below. Jessie & Danny, thank you for letting me be part of your big day and capturing it!

Jose + Eli

I wish I knew where to begin with these two. I guess I’ll start with how I met both of them. 

Jose first, I first met Jose at church and we both got really close when we were both tasked to run a youth camp. To be honest, I think we were both just winging it. Some might say it was trauma bonding because neither of us got any sleep within those two weeks and we were always busy. However his work ethic and dedication to learning and adapting to new situations shows you the kind of person he is. A person that cares and will do anything to complete the task at hand. 

I think to Eli I was just some random dude who showed up but our first actual interaction was when she was fasting. Daniel’s Fast or something like that. Anyway, I tempted her by saying, “Lets go get some pizza” I tried so hard to convince her but she wouldn’t crack. That alone can tell you her dedication to her faith, to her work and now to Jose. 

Thank you guys for having me at your wedding. I loved every moment of it. Love you guys! 

Dia De Muertos

If I’m being honest, I have never been too close with the traditions of Dia De Muertos but I probably should be because my whole family is from Oaxaca ( Pronounced: WAHAKA). I’ve done a few shoots similar to this in the past. This year I wanted to add some props/ideas that made sense and actually went with the photo. So first I’ll go over the flowers used, Marigolds, It is believed during Dia de Muertos that the spirits of the dead visit the living during the celebration. (Source first thing that popped up on google) . Second, a bottle of Mezcal, this one is Montelobos and it is actually made in Oaxaca. Third, El Rebozo, and that is just a garment used by women in Mexico and honestly all of Latin America, so I figured I’d feature that in there.
