MEET MARISSA

Las Vegas has captured me for most of my adult life, but being born and raised on the islands, my roots are hard pressed into the sands of Kaua'i, HI. I embrace that energetic vibe that Las Vegas has to offer while living and breathing that Aloha spirit that was instilled into me from a young age. 

I am a HUGE animal lover, I'm still waiting for the day I get to photograph a wedding with dogs of all sizes as the wedding party! Lol. I have two fur-babies of my own Zazu, my beagle schnauzer that I adopted and raised from 3 months old (he's 12 now), he can melt your heart with just one look. Seriously, I've seen it first hand and my new and crazy addition; my girl Mija, a rescue from Mexico, she's a rambunctious 2 1/2 year old Lab/Pitbull mix. She is so protective over my boyfriend and I it's funny and adorable all at the same time. I couldn't imagine my world without them in it.

I'm a big foodie! I was taking photos of my food before it became a social media trend. I love to cook and to explore new food and the love it takes to create that dish. I most love quality products and the simpler you get the more food shines. I love a great ribeye, quality sushi and fine liquors but it's not all swanky restaurants and luxurious food, I can take down a juicy burger and swallow a bag of barbecue chips at 2am while editing photos in my pjs! Ha!

Enough about me! I can't wait to hear from you!
