Thanks for stopping by! My name is Berkley and I am a photographer based in South Florida. My journey to becoming a photographer has so much meaning to me. Several years ago my dad took me on a wine tasting trip to Napa Valley. I brought a camera he had given me for Christmas on the trip to California. As we were enjoying our time together, I took some photos of flowers at a winery. My dad complimented my photos from the trip and suggested that I should start a photography business. So I did! I began primarily capturing graduation portraits which led to photographing families, engagements and weddings. My dad was diagnosed with stage four pancreatic cancer towards the end of 2017. After graduating from The University of Central Florida with a degree in Communications, I became a full time photographer in the summer of 2018. Shortly after graduating, my dad passed away in the fall of 2018. Before he passed, he told me I was going to become a wedding photographer. Months later I booked my first wedding and never wanted to stop. This deep pain inspired me to keep going. I've turned the hurt I experienced from his loss into motivation for my photography business and life.
I find true joy in making others feel seen and appreciated. My main goal is to make each client feel confident and comfortable during the vulnerable experience of being photographed. My dad's passing taught me that images are more than just photos, they are a celebration of beautiful moments and memories to look back on forever. Eventually, memories are all that we have and that’s why I’m so passionate about what I do.
