Meet the Person Behind the Lens
Hola/Ciao/Hello!
I'm Natalie Alvarado, a Southern California-based photographer with roots in Mexico and a passion for exploring the world. My journey into photography began in 2010 while living in New York City, and my love for capturing life’s special moments truly flourished when I worked as an assistant wedding planner in Italy in 2013. That experience sparked my transition into wedding and event photography, allowing me to blend my love for storytelling and celebration.
Being trilingual and bicultural, I have a deep appreciation for community, connection, and cultural diversity. I’m passionate about learning different traditions and customs, and I thrive on capturing those authentic moments that make each event truly unforgettable.
There’s something about the energy of a wedding or event day that excites me—those fleeting, joyful moments that I get to preserve forever.
