hiiiiii i’m areli! i'm a photographer born and raised in arizona, where the desert sunsets completely stole my heart. my husband and I have been together for 16 years and together we’re raising our five beautiful kiddos — 4 beautiful girls and 1 sweet boy — who are the reason I fell in love with capturing genuine moments.

I started my photography journey in 2019, and since then i’ve found so much joy in documenting families just as they are — the laughter, chaos, cuddles, and connection that make every family unique. my style is warm, relaxed, and sunset-focused, because there’s nothing better than golden hour lighting and authentic memories.

when you book a session with me, my goal is to make you feel comfortable, have fun, and walk away with photos that feel natural and full of emotion — memories you’ll cherish forever.
