Introduction
Hi, I’m Monet 📸✨ I’m a Los Angeles-based photographer with a deep love for capturing real moments. Whether it’s a couples shoot, family portraits, headshots, a milestone celebration, branding session, a cozy in-home shoot, or creative portrait series, I aim to create an experience that feels effortless, intentional, and fun from start to finish. Clients describe me as warm, easy to work with, and someone who helps them feel instantly comfortable in front of the camera. I offer gentle posing direction while making space for candid in-between moments that truly reflect your personality and story. With a background in film, storytelling, and creative production, I bring a cinematic eye to every session—focusing on emotion, composition, and color. I've shot lifestyle, portraits, couples, headshots, family/newborn, weddings and event photography—with quick turnaround times, clear communication, and a personal touch every step of the way. Let’s create something beautiful together 💫

Monet did a fantastic job! She worked with my husband and me on our maternity shoot. Before the shoot, Monet gave me suggestions for locations based off the type of esthetic I wanted for the pictures. She made us feel comfortable throughout the shoot and sought out different angles and locations for a variety of shots. The photos she sent us about a week later captured this moment in my pregnancy so beautifully! Thank you, Monet!

Details: Maternity portrait • Candid (captured in the moment) • Natural / environmental (photographed in an outdoor setting) • Traditional / classic (looking directly at the camera) • I'm flexible • Digital or online download • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

Monet was everything we could ask for! My partner and I were looking for a photographer for our courthouse elopement with a beautiful and unique aesthetic. We were very lucky to find Monet. From the beginning she was responsive and professional. Booking her service was so easy and stress-free! The day of the ceremony, Monet came early to meet us and we were immediately moved by her enthusiasm and kindness. We felt so comfortable in front of the camera with her guidance. What a true professional. Monet understands how important the event was and delivered a sneak peek of the images building our excitement for the full album. Her work is remarkable and special for us, our family, and friends! If you’re looking for a photographer for any occasion, I wholeheartedly recommend Monet! Sharing just a few of the many gorgeous photos she took on our special day.

Had an absolutely great experience! 10/10 would recommend. We did a portrait session together and she made me feel so comfortable and really made it a fun experience throughout. I showed my mom the photos, and she started tearing up afterward. Monet was super responsive and I was so happy with our results. Would definitely recommend and you honestly can't go wrong in booking with her.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Incredible Experience from Start to Finish! Working with Monet was an absolute dream! From the very beginning, her communication was prompt, clear, professional, and honestly made me feel so excited to shoot my engagement photos with her. She truly listened to my vision and made me and my husband feel so comfortable throughout the entire process. The final product exceeded all my expectations— her photos captured us, this chapter, and the details perfectly and she also got so many great candid moments we wouldn't have thought of too. Her attention to detail in terms of capturing “us” and the quality for the price was top-notch. It honestly felt super clear that she genuinely cares about her clients (as opposed to other photographers we’ve worked with) and the work she delivers. I honestly couldn’t be happier and I will absolutely be returning for future shoots for our family in the future. Highly recommend to anyone looking for great photos (literally recommending her to my friends as we speak), especially for the price. Monet is amazing and you won’t be disappointed!
