Photos That Feel Like You.
Gently Guided. Timelessly Photographed.

SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA intimate wedding & FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER

Hiring a photographer can feel like a big decision. You want someone who won’t make things awkward, rush the day, or turn your wedding or family session into a serious production. You want to feel at ease, taken care of, and confident that the photos will actually reflect you — not some Pinterest Board.

Hey There, I am Rosa

An intimate wedding and Bay Area family photographer with over 10 years of experience documenting couples and families through meaningful seasons of their lives.

I specialize in San Francisco City Hall weddings, intimate weddings, family sessions, in-home newborn photography, and a limited number of seasonal mini sessions each year. Over the years, I’ve photographed hundreds of families and weddings throughout the Bay Area, and what keeps me inspired is simple: human connection.

I care deeply about creating images that feel personal. My work is rooted in paying attention. To the way people move, laugh, hold one another, and their reaction to particular moments.

MORE ABOUT ROSA

MY APPROACH

Photography that feels easy.

Whether I’m photographing a wedding or a family session with little ones who need a moment to warm up, I bring a calm, and warm presence.

Couples often tell me that working with me felt fun and easier than anticipated. Parents tell me they appreciate that I don’t force perfection out of their little ones. I truly believe the beauty is in how you interact and react— the laughter, the tears, and the in-between real life moments that unfold.

My editing style is true-to-life, so your images feel timeless years from now. I value authenticity, and a balance between polished and imperfect. You don’t need to know what to do in front of my camera. Simply show up and I’ll guide you.

KIND WORDS

“I was seriously blown away. She shines during weddings! She captured the vision my husband and I had to a T and made us feel taken care of the whole way through.”
