Hi! I'm Lela! It's so nice to meet you! If there's anything my friends know about me it's that I am a travel addict, and when I'm not on the road, you'll find me cuddled up on the couch with my two hound dogs binge watching crime shows. Any other First 48 fans out there?! I was born in raised on a 1000 acre farm in rural Northern California. My love for photography began in the halls, fields and auditorium of my high school, capturing memories of everyone I grew up with. Ever since, I have loved the opportunity to capturing raw, authentic and candid happiness for every celebration.
So, whether you're graduating high school or college, just got engaged, getting married, announcing a pregnancy, or welcoming a new addition to your family, I want to be there to capture it for you. I can't wait to tell your story though images so that you can cherish and relive those precious moments and share them with future generations to come.
