a little bit About me…

Hello! My name is Claudia. I am a homebody who loves cooking, baking, and spending time with loved ones (can I stay home forever and hang out in the kitchen all day, please?). I’m a new mom and love everything about it! Yes, I am exhausted most of the time, but “mom” is the best title I have ever held. I grew up in Dallas and attended the Arts Magnet where I majored in Visual Arts; drawing, painting, and photography have my heart. I currently live in Arlington, TX. I work full time at a bank and shoot as much as I can on my spare time. Portraits are my favorite! My goal is to do photography/art full time but for now I gotta pay my bills so corporate America it is!

I have loved photography since I was a little girl. I remember running around with a camera that had no film in it and pretending to shoot everything around me. I took a photography class in high school but it was my sophomore year in college that I fell hard for photography. On day one (or two. I can't remember anymore!) of Intro to Photography, our instructor Scott went over an SLR, breaking down aperture and shutter speed and I was in a trance; I was so intrigued that I decided to split the focus of my Bachelor’s of Fine Arts to Painting and Photography. Ever since then I have tried to capture life around me but especially people. There is so much beauty and detail in every person and I love to capture that. I will try to add more about myself here and also on the blog. 

Thanks for stopping by!
