“There is no exercise better for the heart than reaching down and lifting people up.”
Hi there! My name is Elissa. Born and raised in Dallas, Texas - still here and loving it! I have a heart to serve and a love of creating beautiful things.
When I'm not creating beautiful things, I love hopping on a plane to anywhere, trying new restaurants, being a wife to my amazing husband and living my life to please Jesus.
I am a newly wed to my amazing husband, Arsenio, and it has been such a fun journey doing life with him! We love cooking together, dreaming up new ideas and we definitely love laughing together. I married my foodie partner and we are always trying new recipes or exploring different restaurants and authentic foods.
When it comes to photography, there are many different genre's that I've tried, but weddings are just my JAM! Connections with my couples is what I seek the most. And when I see you on your wedding day, I want to feel like more than your photographer. I'm your friend. And I'm here for you each step of the way! That's why I can't wait to meet you and get started on this journey to celebrating a new chapter of your life together!

Traveling is my thing. I'm honestly not picky where you take me, but if I had to pick one, I'd choose the ocean. The colors, the breeze, the smell, the sound. Everything about it excites me.

I am so thankful for that day at the flea market when I held him for the first time. It was love at first sight! Prince, who is a Papillon (French for "butterfly" in reference to their ears) has been such a joy in my life. He never fails to make me laugh. I love his little attitude and how he communicates exactly how he feels and what he's thinking. If you've got a fur baby, you know what I mean!

I am obsessed with hair care. I am a naturally curly hair girl that began my journey in 2010. I am a hair product junkie and can spend hours watching natural hair youtube videos. I'm typically a quiet person, but start talking about hair care and you might have a hard time getting me to shut up!

I find it hard to turn away a dessert. I love all things cakes, cookies & ice cream. And wedding cake is definitely one of my favorites. So don't be surprised to see me with cake in hand at your wedding!
