Margarita is more than my middle name—it is an heirloom. It belonged to my great-grandmother, became part of my mother’s name, and eventually became mine.

My name reminds me that the most meaningful things we inherit aren’t bought—they are names, stories, traditions, photographs, and pieces of family history passed from one generation to the next.

Perhaps that is why I see wedding photography the same way. I am not simply creating photographs for today, but preserving the beginning of a marriage for the generations who will come after you.

Margarita is an heirloom I was given. Photography is how I help preserve yours.
