Capturing moments, building memories: Our journey in photography.
Our journey into photography began long before launching our business in the Temecula Valley. What started with capturing family moments on a classic Pentax K1000 film camera grew into a deep passion for storytelling through portrait, event, and lifestyle photography. Based in Southern California, we proudly serve clients from Orange County to Riverside County—and everywhere in between. Whether it's a golden hour family session in the vineyards, an intimate engagement shoot in the desert, or a branding session in the city, we specialize in transforming meaningful moments into timeless visual memories. Photography has always been more than just a service for us—it’s a way to preserve connection, celebrate emotion, and highlight the beauty of real life. In this blog, we share the heart behind our work, the landscapes that inspire us, and how we strive to deliver lasting images for every client we meet.
Hello, I’m Stephanie Martinez’ Le, born in Los Angeles, California. Photography has been my passion since childhood, inspired by my dad. After losing his parents, he and his brothers started taking photos with a Pentax K1000 to support their family. Eventually, my parents started a small photography business at a San Bernardino swap meet, where I fell in love with capturing special moments.
Photography not only supported our family but also brought us closer together. Now, I’m proud to follow in my dad’s footsteps. I’ve been married to my husband for 8 years, and we’re business partners, sharing this journey together. While we collaborate on almost everything, my focus is on the photography, while my husband manages the business.
My first camera was a digital Kodak in high school, a gift from my parents. I took it everywhere, eager to capture memories. A photography course in San Diego after high school was transformative, teaching me core principles I still use today. I continually refine my skills through courses and daily practice.
With 10 years of professional experience, I’ve built a diverse portfolio that includes engagements, festivals, portraits, and weddings. Let us be part of your journey and capture your special moments. We promise, you won’t be disappointed. Let’s create beautiful memories together!
