Your wedding isn't just a day on the calendar. It's a collection of real, intentional moments, that come together to tell the story of you.

PHOTOS THAT FEEL LIKE YOUR LOVE STORY, NOT A PHOTOSHOOT

Pensacola, Florida Based

Whether it’s a barefoot elopement or a small, emotional ceremony surrounded by your people—your wedding deserves to be felt.


CAPTURING your HEARTFELT MOMENTS to last a LIFETIME.

contact merecedes

your day deserves more than a shot list

it's the little gestures that matter: it's the way your mom cries when she first sees you, a simple kiss on the forehand, tears in the vow exchange, and hug from your grandparent after the ceremony

SENTIMENTAL

no trendy filters or forced poses-just moments that feel true today and in decades to come.

TIMELESS

it's calm, the wind the waves, the natural glow of the Gulf sunsets.

The pictures are absolutely stunning, Mercedes did our wedding and did not disappoint. She was so patient with us and made sure I got every shot I wanted. Our pictures turned out perfect, I am so glad she was available for our wedding.

Captured some amazing family photos and we couldn't be happier. Was so fun  and so sweet to work with and the outcome was amazing.

"Above and Beyond and exceeded our expectations. "

The love and happiness we felt that day and the beauty of a destination wedding was reflected throughout, as well as capturing all the special moments and details of the day we'll be able to relive through our photos.

The Big DAY

The PROCESS

HOW IT WORKS

The kind of photos that get passed down.

The kind of memories that you will want to look back on when your old and your babies are grown. The photos that bring you back to that moment you said "i do", or the moment your mom saw you for the first time in your wedding dress.
These aren't just photos. They're time capsules. They'll bring you right back to a memory you never want to forget. 

get in touch

My photography is shaped by the same things I value in life: presence, connection, and the little moments that often go unnoticed. I know how fast it all moves. I know how important it is to slow down and feel it while you can. And I’d be honored to help you hold onto it—whether it’s your wedding day  or a quiet afternoon with the people you love most.
