About Me

When I have a camera with me, I feel like I can break all the barriers and all the rules. I don't feel the need to hide anymore because the invisible wall between myself and my subject is temporarily broken and our souls kiss for one splendid second in time..... Some of my shots from Havana, Cuba...
Ahhhh..... and here's what I captured in Kenya, Africa!!!
LOVE my two jack russsels and super happy to live in Venice as I am a fan of riding my bike as much as possible. Live for traveling, friends, and family. I graduated from UCLA and have an incredible group of friends from my college days and some others I've picked up along my journey. I am extremely loyal, faithful and always up for an adventure. I hate night clubs and loud bars. I enjoy intimate conversations with people and laughing my ass off! I've been going to Hal's on Abott Kinney quite a lot as there is a community there that I have embraced and they have damn good turkey burgers! I love bbq's and dinners with close friends and game nights! I love reading and watching movies and obviously exploring new territory to photograph. I own a photography business called enLuce and I'm so lucky I get to travel a lot. I love my job as it fuels my creativity and is so gratifying to give back with my work! My website is: www.enLucephotography.com Check it out!!! I'm super excited as I just finished converting my garage into an office/studio and have been doing really cool photo shoots and am always up for something new and adventageous! hmmmm... OH, I am very proud of my italian heritage and have been to Italy 6 times and would go tomorrow if you asked! Italy's soul is always reverberating with love, culture, and great food! If you haven't been, book a ticket like, YESTERDAY!!!!!

My Interests

I hope to always grow as a photographer and constantly challenge myself to do new projects! Here is some of the wedding images taken by enLuce photography~~I LOVE FLYING BY THE SEAT OF MY PANTS!!!!!! Seriously, my FAVORITE thing is to land somewhere and not know what the hell is in front of me and just letting the surroundings take me for a ride. I LOVE traveling as it gives me much needed perspective and clarity. I want to go to Sri Lanka, Morrocco, and Peru next! I just got back from Kenya and loved the spirit of the people there. I travel a lot as I've been to Cuba (which is indescribable--AMAZING!), Indonesia, Jamaica, Singapore, Malaysia, Barbados all over Europe, Costa Rica, and Mexico and Hawaii numerous times!! I go to a lot of art & photography openings and ride my bike at the beach and wander around abott kinney & the venice boardwalk when I need inspiration. I also have a blog on my website that I like to update. You can check it out: http://www.enLucephotography.com

I'd like to meet:

.. Creative people who are humble enough to seek truth and want the richest and deepest experience possible while they are alive. And because I believe in the power of putting actions and words out there, I would like to add this as well. I believe there is a man out there perfect for me. One who can stand up to the plate and is secure in his masculinity but has enough sensitivity to be empathetic, kind, and romantic. I would like my next relationship to reflect the growth I've encountered and I am going to follow my instincts and go incredibly slow...I'm hoping I don't have to endure another break up and my next partner will be the one that carries me through old age. This man would have to extremely intelligent, well cultured, and creative enough to keep me on my toes. I like a man who values family, friends and above all HONESTY!!! There is nothing sexier then a man who is kind and has integrity. I believe you can manifest magic in your life as long as you stay positive, do the footwork, and don't settle for less then you deserve. I've been in relationships where my partner came to the rescue and I've been the one to do the saving and I will find someone that can be my equal emotionally, intellectually, financially and socially. I'm ready to give with all my heart and soul as long as I feel it's fully reciprocated and valued. It's important to be a complete individual on your own and enhancing that with someone you want to share it with. I love exploring new places with a partner and at least making an effort to make a change in the world.....

Movies:

My all time fave movie is a french independent called, "Love me if you Dare" --It KILLS ME!
a

Television:


Just got hooked on Californication and really like Weeds and sometimes Entourage although it's getting a little redundant....

Books:

Just finished EAT, PRAY, LOVE. Really great read--deep, poignant and funny as hell. Enjoyed The Kite Runner, A Splendid Thousand Suns,Unbearable Lightness of Being, Solitude, The Tipping Point, Secret History, Four Agreements, A Million Little Pieces, Letters to a Young Poet, & The Little Prince. Here's my current view on dating told by Foamy the Squirrel below....take a second--shoes off and hear some words of wisdom.

Heroes:

~~Invention is mostly this subtle, inevitable thing...I mean it comes from your nature, your identity.We've all got an identity. You can't avoid it. It's what's left when you take everything else away. I think the most beautiful inventions are the ones you don't think of. My favourite thing is to go where I've never been. - Diane Arbus ~~Live through feeling and you will live through love. For feeling is the language of the soul, and feeling is truth. ~~To take photographs means to recognize -- simultaneously and within a fraction of a second -- both the fact itself and the rigorous organization of visually perceived forms that give it meaning. It is putting one's head, one's eye and one's heart on the same axis. As far as I am concerned, taking photographs is a means of understanding which cannot be separated from other means of visual expression. It is a way of shouting, of freeing oneself, not of proving or asserting one's own originality. It is a way of life. - Henri Cartier-Bresson ~~There is one thing the photograph must contain, the humanity of the moment. -
