I’m really hoping!
And you’ll see the hours I guarantee, the help I offer in planning, the huge, almost too-much, number of images I promise and so much more. And, of course, you want to know the price.
Packages are comparable and my prices aren’t anything crazy
I promise!
Who I am and how I promise to capture your story with so much care and sweetness and beauty and light-filled joy in a way no one else can.
And when you reach out and we can make a connection, I promise to spill all the details and prices if you promise to tell me about your love.
Two collections that fit your day the way you live it, with options for full day or 7 hours of coverage, a trusted second photographer, previews in 3–7 days, gallery cloud storage, a custom photo timeline, and my Wedding Guide so planning feels easy; your keepsakes can include a Fine Art lay-flat album & an heirloom USB, and we can package an engagement session in so the whole story feels connected (tell me what matters most to you & we’ll shape it together).
Bring the two of you as you are. Options for 1 hour or 2 hours, one location or two that are close by (we’ll pick great spots together). You’ll receive high-resolution & web-size images, location & outfit resources, and at least 50 final photos. Galleries deliver in about 2–4 weeks with 6 months of cloud storage. I guide when it helps & step back when you’re in your own rhythm (that’s when the good stuff happens).
Ask about adding extra time, sunrise or golden-hour start times, and how we can include your engagement session into your wedding collection.
EVERYDAY DARLINGS (family, maternity, newborn lifestyle at home or on location)
Real life, kept warm & honest. Standard sessions are about 1 hour for family or maternity with high-resolution & web-size images, at least 50 finals, location & outfit resources, and delivery in 2–4 weeks. Newborn lifestyle sessions run a little longer so everyone can breathe & settle.
GENTLE BEGINNINGS BUNDLE (maternity & newborn together)
One maternity session & one newborn lifestyle session, timed when it feels right for you. Expect 100+ finals across both, 6 months of cloud storage, and the kind of pacing that keeps baby happy & you comfortable.
Extended family options available. Studio add-ons by request. Reach out and Say Hi for a complete pricing breakdown.
“We worked with Daniela for our engagement & wedding photos, and she captured our special moments beautifully. She was responsive, accommodating, and listened to every request. The wedding book she created was stunning — and we’ve had countless compliments on our photos. We’ll definitely be booking with her again.”

“Daniela took our family photos with our newborn & the gallery she delivered was perfect. She was so easy to work with, brought great energy to our session, and made us feel comfortable from start to finish. We’ve worked with other photographers but Daniela is our absolute favorite! We’ve already booked her again!”
Veronica Gonzalez
I love taking photos with Daniela! She’s captured my summer and Mother’s Day memories so beautifully. Her style is everything, and she’s amazing with my wild toddlers (so patient & kind).
Cristina Nava
her kids were an absolute trip and I loved it all!
As soon as you have your date & venue. Most couples book 9–12 months ahead. I take a limited number of weddings each year, and I keep most portrait sessions on weekdays with only one Saturday a month for non-wedding bookings (weekends fill quickly).
I’ll send a custom proposal with your collection, contract & retainer link. Once the contract is signed and a non-refundable retainer is paid, your date is officially reserved.
Yes, gently. I guide when it helps & step back when you’re in your own rhythm. You don’t need to be perfect, just present (the real moments are always the sweetest ones).
Most couples choose Full-Day because it covers getting ready through dancing and sweet goodbyes. We’ll talk through your timeline together so it fits your day, not the other way around.
You’ll receive wedding previews within 3–7 days. Full wedding galleries deliver in about 4–12 weeks. Portrait & family sessions deliver in 2–4 weeks.
Yes. A trusted second photographer is included in wedding collections.
Weddings average around 600–1,000 final images depending on your collection. Portraits & family sessions include 50+. You receive both high-resolution & web-size files.
Yes. Fine Art lay-flat albums are included in my full-day collection and available to add to any collection. We’ll design it together so it feels like you (archival, beautiful, meant to last).
I’m based in Chula Vista and serve San Diego (and beyond). Tell me where you’re celebrating and I’ll share simple travel details in your proposal.
You’ll see “Starting at” on my site, and I’ll send my full pricing guide when you inquire so you have everything in one place (collections, options, what fits you best).
I focus on photography. If you’re working with a videographer, I’m happy to coordinate so everything flows smoothly.
Wind, soft rain, golden clouds—real life looks beautiful on camera. I’ll come prepared, and we’ll keep you comfortable.
If you're looking for photography that honors your story as it is, you’re in the right place. From full wedding days to newborn toes and motherhood in motion, I offer sessions that keep the focus on what matters most. Love, connection, and a little bit of chaos. Let’s figure out the perfect fit for you.
