I love that Myla is an AAPI photographer and am so grateful to have been able to work with her! I struggle a lot with fitting in with societies standards for beauty and our photos show me that I can love myself and feel beautiful even when every day I struggle so hard with just looking in the mirror.
"ABSOLUTELY loved working with Myla for our engagement photo session at Monet Vineyards! Myla is very skillful and talented at her art, and I'm happy we were able to book her in such a short notice. She is also a great listener, communicator, flexible, and simply a fun person to have around, cheering for you and your partner during these special moments. Her work is amazing and I am literally in love with our photos. We will definitely keep her in mind for our future special events!"

I love to focus on real moments and capture things on the day as they happen naturally. To help you achieve this candid and classic feel for your wedding photos, I love to use various types of film and film cameras throughout a wedding day or elopement.
Blending film and digital is one of my absolute favorite things to do. Sometimes weddings can feel a bit dated when trying to incorporate all the big wedding day “trends,” and that’s what makes adding film to your photography package so great. Film adds a level of elevation to your wedding gallery giving you that effortlessly timeless and soulful look. It’s like listening to your favorite album on a vinyl record player instead of from the speakers on your phone. You’re taking a step away from modern technology and feeling the moment on a whole different level. Plus it’s the uniqueness of film visually—grain, blur, and colors that can’t be replicated—that adds character and authenticity to the moments captured when telling your story.
