Meet the Team
Nicole & Jason Vega
Owner
Some years ago, my husband bought me my first professional camera. He then got one.
I decided right then I knew I would be devoting my life to Photography, and I was taking him with me.
Practicing on our kids (we have 3 young girls) I slowly booked family sessions.
It wasn't until I did my first "favor" wedding that I realized, wow. This is everything. Being able to share in the happiest moment of someone's life was not only rewarding in many ways, but the happiest place I've been in my career. The feeling is mutual for Jay & I, and I'm just thankful we are on this journey together.
