Hola

I'M LAURA

latina mompreneur embracing the outdoors in this little neck of the woods!

Let’s create something unforgettable together!

Goofy and bubbly at heart, a little clumsy at times, but always dedicated to going above and beyond to make your day the best it can be.

a glimpse behind the camera

I believe every photo holds a story, and it's a true honor to capture yours. My superpower? Flexibility. Whether you have a clear vision or no idea where to start, I’m here to guide you, support you, and make the experience relaxed and meaningful.

Want to take a dip in the lake? Roast s’mores by a campfire? Hike the Superior Hiking Trail or wander your favorite beach spot? I’m in. I’ll meet you where you are, with joy, creativity, and care... and make sure your time in front of the camera feels like you.


Minnesota’s North Shore has been home for almost ten years now, but I’m originally from Lima, Peru. I’m married to a local Grand Marais guy, and together we’re raising two beautiful kids in this stunning corner of the world.

Photography and love have always been at the center of my heart, so it only made sense to bring them together. Now, I get to tell real love stories as a wedding and lifestyle photographer.

I made a book about the mompreneurs in Cook County with my friend Gina Joyce!

latest life achievement:

ASIAN FOOD!!!
I'm a foodie girl and love trying food from everywhere in the world. Although Peruvian food will always be my TOP choice, you can never go wrong with Asian food. My favorites: Ramen, Bibimbap and Shrimp tempura rolls :)

I'll do everything I can to make you feel at ease.
Every story deserves to be told in a unique way, all you have to do is be YOU.

connection matters

I don't want to be just your photographer, I want to be your friend forever, and I mean it.
Feeling that we vibe well is important for both sides, it makes the process of documenting your day go so smoothly and the experience of this day be stress-free, fun and playful.
