When I was a kid, I thought great romance was something I would only find among my books, dreamy, nostalgic, and almost too good to be true. Now that I’m 31, I truly believe that love stories are real; we just have to find a way to interpret them.
A little bit about me. I grew up in Tenerife as a lucky islander, and it was my aunt who introduced me to my first ever camera. Her passion was contagious, and her art was so inspiring that I happily blended in. On a deeper level, I simply believe there is still so much love to give, so many wonders within our reach. I'm nostalgic by nature; I look at the stars and think of Peter Pan, of waves whispering secrets, of stories within stories. I believe in the red thread of fate and that those in-between moments are also worth celebrating. Sometimes, I feel like I want to create so many things while discovering so many others that my heart is going to leap out of my chest, and that's terrifying, but incredibly beautiful too.
As a wedding photographer, I still don't know what the formula for love is, but I do know love stories. I've observed sweet kisses and soul connections. I've witnessed endless stories about passion, growth, and tenderness. And I'm deeply honoured to be here, documenting yours.
Alongside my loved ones, my space in art is my foundation
Hi, I'm Yolanda
Inspired by cold winter sunrises when the sky is still pink and blue, a murmuration of starlings flying high, the moon, sunsets on the beach, and lying on the grass feeling the breeze. I'm a mix of all the things I love, really. Candles, books, books and more books, cat lover (although I have two dogs), thoughtfully-considered soundtracks, travelling, romanticism found in art, dancing (even though I'm terrible), cooking (thanks, dad), diversity, medieval fairytales, the Tenerife sea, and flower shops.
The Inspiration
When I photograph, I rarely strive for perfection. Instead, I'm chasing a memory. My approach resonates with those who are passionate about their feelings and appreciate nature, art, cinema, and above all, love. I seek authenticity and connections, balancing between feeling the moment and creating a space where you can be yourself. There is no pretending, just you, present and real. Deeply moved by intuition, I will document your day the way I would like someone to one day document mine.
This is a space for everyone. Your love is safe here.
