You too? Let’s be friends!
Hi there, I’m Monique.
Thank you for taking the time to check out my little corner of the web !
i am a wedding & lifestyle photographer based in Joshua Tree. I love photography because i love humans, and getting to document what makes them unique is inspiring and fuuuun. Weddings became my go-to because they are filled with all the things that make life worth living; true love, reunions, dancing (good and bad), too much food, loud laughter, unabashed tears, drunken story telling, children in formal wear….
My style is a lot candid, and a little stylized. I approach each shoot with an open mind, a curious eye, and a true desire to get to know the people in front of me. I believe that trust and creative collaboration are the key to a great session. If you are looking for a photographer who lives a few streets down from traditional, will be all over your dance floor, and is just pretty cool in general (i have a harry potter tattoo and everything), then let’s talk ;)
“WE HONESTLY FELT LIKE YOU WERE ACTING AS PHOTOGRAPHER, THERAPIST, HYPE TEAM AND COORDINATOR ON THE DAY, GOING TRULY ABOVE AND BEYOND WHAT YOU WERE THERE TO DO. I REALLY CAN’T THANK YOU ENOUGH. YOU WILL ALWAYS BE AN INTRINSIC PART OF THE SPECIAL MEMORIES OF OUR WEDDING DAY.”
