It’s National Bestie Day so I figured it was time I introduce you to my ultimate best friend—my husband, Carlos 🧡
We met in a UCF Facebook group for photographers (how millennial of us), and the first time we saw each other in person I accidentally walked in on him painting a studio wall… shirtless. 🤣 The rest? Pretty much history. We’ve been inseparable ever since—building a life, running our businesses, and capturing love stories and events side by side for over 7 years now.
Carlos is one of the smartest people I know. He loves working on anything that goes vroom—cars, motorcycles, you name it. He’s a total chocoholic, and if it comes in his favorite color orange, he probably owns it or will buy it. He keeps me laughing, grounded, and caffeinated. Our favorite things include: morning coffee runs, sushi date nights, late-night drives in the Vanderhall, watching our favorite shows or movies, and getting ready together before weddings.
One my favorite parts of what we do is getting to work together—whether Carlos is filming and I’m photographing, or we’re switching roles, we’re always cheering each other on behind the scenes.
We’re currently dreaming up a 3-week honeymoon in Europe (finally!) and hoping to bring home a Bernese Mountain Dog in the near future. Life with him is a bigger adventure than I could have ever hoped for, and I’m so lucky I get to do it all with my best friend. 💛
