Family group photos
My family and I haven’t take family group photos in over 9 years. We were blessed enough to have you capture a piece of our family chaos. Thank you for be so patient and openminded with all 13! You handled us with breeze. The photos turned out better than expected! I would totally recommend you to everyone! Keep doing your work you’re amazing at it.
Our Wedding, Perfectly Captured
Araceli is a gem of a photographer and an amazing human being.
From the very first message, she felt less like a vendor and more like a trusted friend who truly cared about capturing our story. On our wedding day, she somehow managed to be everywhere and invisible at the same time — catching the big emotional moments and the quiet, in-between ones we didn’t even realize were happening.
Her eye for light, detail, and emotion is unreal. Every photo feels alive — not overly posed, not overly edited — just real, beautiful, and timeless. She also brought this calm, joyful energy that helped us relax and actually enjoy being in front of the camera (which is saying a lot!).
If you’re looking for someone who will treat your day with care, artistry, and heart, Araceli is the one. She doesn’t just take pictures — she tells your story in a way that makes you fall in love all over again.
Photo shoots
Since the age of 16 I have gotten pictures taken by Araceli and since then I have always loved her work! She is a pleasure working with and has always been flexible and open to places where to take pictures and poses to do as well.
5/5
Such a awesome person to work with! So easy to get along with and makes you feel so comfortable. She’s such a sweetheart! 10/10 Definitely will be going back!
the best photographer
I’ve had such great experiences working with Araceli ! She’s very professional, patient, and makes me feel completely comfortable during the shoot. The photos turn out absolutely beautiful and perfectly captured the moment. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for high-quality photos and an amazing experience!
Captured Our Day So Perfectly ❤️
Araceli is absolutely amazing! She and her husband (who also assisted and modeled poses) went above and beyond for our wedding day. From the moment she arrived, she got right to work and captured every image I had in my mind — and so many beautiful moments I didn’t even realize I wanted. You can tell she genuinely cares about her couples as people, not just clients.
She had photographed my family earlier this year, and after that experience, I knew she’d be perfect for our wedding. We had picked out a nearby park for our couple photos, but it ended up being really busy that day. Araceli didn’t miss a beat — she walked around, found the prettiest spots, tried different angles, and even had us take some photos right in front of the park. Her creativity and quick thinking made for such beautiful, unique shots!
Her husband also surprised us with some film photos to add to his portfolio, which was such a sweet touch. Together, they’re such a talented, genuine team, and I’m beyond grateful for how beautifully they captured our day. I couldn’t recommend them more! ❤️
Sweet photographer!
My family and I had a session with Araceli a couple of years ago and I remember how sweet and professional she was! She helped us come up with poses that ended up looking so good once captured. She also was patient with us while trying to get our toddler to pose and stay put. Very kind photographer, I highly recommend!
Mothers Day Minis
Loved her was a little nervous going with my 2 little ones and scared they would not cooperate . But she’s amazing with kids and made them smile and laugh loved all my pictures 😊. Looking forward to booking again in the future.
Take the photos!
Araceli is very sweet, accommodating and patient! She captured my girl’s personalities (ages 11 months & 2 years old) beautifully! Take the photos! Let her capture your family. Thank you again Araceli! Thank you for the fast turnaround, helping me set up my props, and being so sweet.
Family photos
Araceli was great. Thank you so much for a wonderful session and these beautiful photos.
Amazing Photos and Talent
Araceli is such a talented photographer and kind person. From the beginning she made my family feel comfortable and at ease with taking our photos. She made such to check with us about any specific poses we wanted and gave us direction as we needed. We will definitely be taking more photos with her. Her professionalism, kindness, and talent is evident in the quality of her work.
Araceli
Me encanta la luz y enfoque que hace con su cámara la tensión que le dedica a cada fotografía y lo que pide la persona 📸😍
Exceptional Photography Experience
Working with Araceli was an outstanding experience from start to finish. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and ability to create a calm and comfortable atmosphere are truly commendable. She approaches each session with patience and creativity, ensuring that every moment is captured authentically and beautifully. I highly recommend Araceli to anyone seeking high-quality, professional photography services.
Not awkward, easy and fun
Was my first photoshoot ever and was nervous but she made the experience so easy and fun, loved the results
Wedding
We just want to thank Araceli for helping us make our wedding day such a special one. Her professionalism is like no other. Right off the bat, she made sure that my wife and I had a location to shoot and if we didn’t, she pulled up many amazing locations for us to choose of. On our wedding day, one thing that stood out to us and we were so thankful for was our neighbor was being extremely loud during our ceremony, so she made sure that wasn’t going to problem and without anyone telling her to do it, she went to speak with our neighbors to see if they could let us continue our ceremony peacefully and we were thankful. The photos she took that day hold dear to our hearts. She made sure to take photos of everything and they turned out amazing. Photos I didn’t think of for her to shoot, now are my favorite. The locations for post-wedding shoots were amazing. She made me and my wife just be ourselves, we were both nervous to be in front of a camera since both us don’t like being the center of attention, Araceli made us so comfortable, we began to dance. So many great things we could say about our shoot with Araceli, thank you for making our day extra special!
LEONS first bday picture's
Araceli thank you for making this special moment for my Leo and i. You were so amazing and patient with him. Thank you 😊
So patient and talented!
Araceli is absolutely amazing! She has such a natural talent for photography and an incredible way of connecting with kids. My little ones can be shy and wiggly, but she was so patient, fun, and gentle with them that they opened up right away. She captured the sweetest smiles and genuine moments that we’ll treasure forever. You can really tell she puts her heart into her work. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who truly knows how to work with kids and create beautiful memories!
Excelente!
Araceli es una excelente fotógrafa, súper profesional y con una magia increíble para capturar momentos importantes. Gracias Araceli por tu trabajo y por tu paciencia. Eres la mejor.
Family Session
We have booked with Araceli to take our family photos a couple of times. She is very accommodating and so sweet. She captured our families true personalities, we had so much fun when we took our photos. The last time she captured our families photos she came to our property, so my mom who had cancer was able to join us. Now I have some beautiful photos to remember her by. Her turnaround time is very efficient as well.
Wedding video
Araceli and her partner were extremely professional and captured our special day perfectly! The amount of detail they pour into their work does not go unnoticed. They were also very nice and coordinated well with my photographer. If you’re looking for someone who is passionate about their work, Araceli is definitely the person you’re looking for. Forever grateful for the special memories she captured for us.
There is no one like Araceli. Period.
Araceli is one of the best photographers around, and that is not an exaggeration. Not only is she amazing at making you feel comfortable and seen during a session, but she has always has delivered back to me the most beautiful, emotional, perfectly photographed memories. She somehow is able to capture all of the true emotion that my family and I have expressed in a session, and for that I cannot be more pleased with my loyalty to her as our family photographer. In addition to being an amazing photographer, she is an amazing friend. And has always gone above and beyond to make sure she delivers to us exactly what we had pictured. I have had maternity photos, newborn photos, and family photos taken by her and I will never go anywhere else. I have a photo she has taken of my little family on every wall of my house, they are THAT beautiful. God has instilled in her a true gift for truly SEEING people, not just snapping photos. Book her now, you WILL NOT regret it!

Quinceañera
We are not from porterville so we had to reach out to people from about 2.5 hours away, I was a little scared to do this and it took sometime. When we found Araceli we loved her prices and her style of shooting. My daughter wanted someone fun, a little traditional, and someone that would capture family free style flowing esthetic. She got just what she wanted, Araceli was super friendly welcoming and fun to have shoot out daughters big day. I loved all the candid photos of our entire family and friends. She did a great job getting all the important traditional family photos, taking our daughter to get a bunch of great options for her to use out on our family’s ranch. I would recommend her for any photos you are looking for your family. I hope that we can hire her again one day for ourselves or our family members.

I’ve gone through so many photographers and I never felt truly happy with the customer service and photo outcome until I met Araceli. I’ve been taking all my family photos with her since 2023, and she always does an amazing job. The quality of her work and her customer service are truly exceptional! She has a special way of making every session comfortable and fun, and she always captures the most genuine moments. I love how she pays attention to detail, listens to what we want, and delivers beyond expectations every single time. I highly recommend Araceli to anyone looking for timeless, beautiful photos and a photographer who truly cares about her clients. I honestly wouldn’t trust anyone else with my family memories.
