  • Welcome to my website!

    Hi, I’m Diana. How did I get here? Well, my mother always said I would be either a teacher or an artist… I never really believed her. I guess mother does know best. I thought I would be a marine biologist or a lawyer… I’m glad I was wrong, I really can’t imagine doing anything else. There is just something about capturing fleeting moments, and knowing you’ve made them more permanent – long after memories fail and we have moved on to new moments. I was lucky enough to have a very talented photographer in the family, my father. Amateur sure, but friends often comment how they wish they had pictures like mine of their childhoods – their moments recorded.
    My father gave me my first camera when I was 14, an Olympus OM 10. Great little camera. That was the start of a hobby that back then I never imagined would develop into such a fun and interesting career. I put that camera on a shelf many times for a newer, more automated model...none of those cameras stood the test of time, but I still have that old Olympus.
    I am drawn to color, to emotion – I’m drawn to what makes people who they are. I want to capture what makes you unique.

    Because we all are.

    Although not a native Austinite, I’ve lived in here since I was 11… and let’s just say that is a long time ;) I was born in Houston, and I still try to get down there at least once a year for my favorite bad for me food ever, James Coney Island hotdogs. I love inky, jammy red wines (Napa is my heaven), I am addicted to and have a more than mild obsession with fancy salts. Like it's a problem. I love to cook, read, and I am a bit of a Sci-Fi nerd. I make a seriously good Bloody Mary, but a red beer is probably my favorite drink of all time. I love my friends! I’m a foodie and I am so thankful that I have other foodie girlfriends who love finding new amazing restaurants to go to – no matter where we are in the world. And that leads me to – I LOVE to travel. Next on my list are Ireland and Iceland. I have shot destination weddings in Mexico, Aruba, Turks and Caicos, Croatia, Crested Butte, Napa, Jamaica and Nevis Island - to name a few! I’m still hoping for Greece and Maine (love Maine!). I love animals - I have 4 dogs! I have worked with Austin Pets Alive, as well as other rescues, for many years as a foster mom for mostly dogs but sometimes cats too.

    Oh, and my favorite movie is Love Actually. Which would seem to mean I’m kind of a romantic….some people who know me may find that surprising. Maybe that’s why I love what I do… I love capturing the real emotion (romance?) of weddings. I guess I’m a little bit of a softie after all. Don’t tell.
