MELANEY SOTELO

Los Angeles & Destination Photograher

Get to know ME

Fueled by equal parts mango dragon fruit refresher from Starbucks and passion, I spend my days capturing the kinds of images that make you stop, smile and ask time to please slow down. Your story, your love, is beautiful and I can't wait to capture it in images you will treasure for years to come. 

I believe in real moments and heartfelt conversations on the front porch. In the kinds of images that remind you of the joy that can be found in the simplest of moments together.
