San Diego Wedding & Elopement Digital & Film Photographer
San Diego documentary-editorial wedding & elopement photographer — I document your day as it actually happens, on film and digital, so it always feels like yours.
you want to be in your wedding, not performing for a camera.
that's the whole idea behind how i shoot. i follow your day as it unfolds and only step in when it helps, so you stay present and none of it gets lost. presence over performance, always.
Documentary-editorial, mostly real, a little elevated.
My story starts behind a film camera. Born in the Philippines, now based in San Diego, and always been the one saying "wait, we need a picture of this."
i shoot a mix of film and digital because film doesn't let anything be fake, it catches the day exactly as it happened.

That's exactly how I shoot. Documentary-editorial means I follow your day as it actually happens — the belly laughs, the happy tears, the quiet in-between moments — and only step in for a few intentional, editorial portraits. About 70% real, 30% art, all on film and digital. You stay present; I make sure none of it is lost.
