Meet Margot
Bonjour!
Bonjour! I’m [Your Name]
Your favorite adventure buddy, master of candid moments, and photographer who’s here to make you feel like the star of your own story.
A little about me: I was solo backpacking through Southeast Asia when I met my husband—proof that love at first sight and love that grows over time can both be magical. Whether your love story started online, in a café, or on a wild adventure, I believe anything can be romantic if you make it so.
Now, I split my time between capturing incredible love stories and homeschooling my 7-year-old son, who constantly reminds me how fun and curious life can be. Our family also includes Elvis Pretzel, the fluffiest Bernedoodle around, who might just be the cutest squirrel-chaser in town.
While I’ve got a soft spot for the romance of London and Paris, you’ll also find me doing yoga on a tropical beach or hiking deep into the California desert for a solo backpacking trip. My motto is “Be your own hero,” and that’s what I hope to inspire in everyone I meet. Life’s too short not to embrace the main-character energy you deserve—and my goal is to make sure your photos reflect exactly that.
Why We’ll Be a Perfect Match
I’m here to make you feel like the absolute star of your day. Whether you’re eloping under the stars in Joshua Tree, throwing a party in one of LA’s tropical warehouse venues, or sharing vows on a serene beach, I’ll capture the kind of magic that feels so you.
My photography style is laid-back, fun, and full of heart. I focus on the real moments—candid laughter, heartfelt hugs, and spontaneous dance moves—but I also know how to guide you into effortless, editorial-style portraits that make you feel like the icon you truly are.
“Highly recommend La Petite Photo!!! She was efficient, able to keep us on schedule, and captured the most spectacular moments.. She kept things light, fun, and romantic and made everyone so comfortable in front of the camera.”
PLACES YOU’LL FIND ME & FUN FACTS ABOUT ME
Chasing Love Stories & Capturing Magic: Whether it’s love at first sight, a slow burn, or a modern “swipe right” romance, I’m here for all the ways love unfolds.
Adventuring Outdoors: Hiking, climbing, and chasing golden light are my jam. Desert backpacking? Been there. Loved it. Always ready for the next trek!
Exploring the World: Traveling with my husband and 7-year-old son is my happy place. Next stop: New Zealand!
In the Studio: Creating “abstract” masterpieces in ceramics class. Okay, maybe I’m still working on my technique, but it’s all part of the fun.
Zipping Around Town: Cruising through Long Beach on my black electric bike, complete with a giant French flag. You can’t miss me!
On the Mat: Practicing yoga poses with names I can’t pronounce or fully master. And yes, Shavasana (a.k.a. lying down with your eyes closed) is my favorite.
In the Kitchen: Perfecting my jackfruit curry recipe with a French twist—paired with a baguette, of course.
On Date Night: Debating movie picks with my husband, jumping around at a concert, eating gourmet food… Oh, and check out his DJ company, Good Mood!—they’re the best!

Weddings are dope
As a Frenchie, there is nothing more meaningful to me than love and romance, and my heart never pounds more than when capturing your very first kiss as a married couple.
As corny as it sounds, I am in love with LOVE. It’s an honor to capture the many beautiful moments that make up such an important day. I take each photo knowing that years later, these images will transport you right back to the most memorable celebration of your lives together.
Also, lifestyle portraits are cool
Not completely posed but not fully candid either, my life style photography sessions work best for my clients who want to get beautiful and authentic portraits at home or somewhere more adventurous. I like to think of my lifestyle sessions a slice of real life with an extra golden touch: it’s you, at your best.
As your photographer, my real goal is not only to make you feel beautiful but to capture moments that you will cherish and frame. Moments that may hang on your kid’s wall one day too…!
