Welcome to the blog, sort of like a digital garden where dreams are planted and grow wild! My name is Quianna and my family calls me “Qui” like key! I’m a traveling photographer based in Scottsdale and the Bay Area.
I love adventures and creating memories even more than I love photographing them—and I LOVE taking photos! In addition to capturing weddings, family milestones, and the best memories I also offer business tools, motivation and inspiration to help creatives turn their passions into their profession. We only get this one life, why not live our days doing what we love?
Consumed with wedding photography I thought it would be fun to share a classic throwback! Puffy sleeves, clip on ties and tap tap shoes. Those were the good ol’ days!
Today we cheers to my Dad.
Happy 54th Birthday!
Here’s a photo of my baptism with Daddy’s cleanest shit kickers and slacks that were probably hemmed that morning.
I spent lots of my childhood in my dad’s arms and on his lap.
Not gunna lie, I was mostly eating or trying to see something from afar. But I vividly remember sitting on his lap just to talk. Talk about the day, crying over my brother running into me and even talking about the future. Just a typical country song about a man and his daughter sitting on his lap telling him what she wants to be when she grows up.
I am humbled to share that even as a little girl I remember telling him I wanted to be a photographer. Well a mommy first and then a photographer, to be exact.
Yes. I am a photographer. Full time international wedding + lifestyle photographer. Thanks for listening to me then Dad and thanks for listening to my prayers now.
Off to Original Joe’s to cheers to your beautiful life!
You can expect to hear back from me within 24 hours on weekdays! Weekends are reserved for shooting weddings, but I'll be back in a jif to reply to your message!
Our family will miss your Dad forever. Happy Birthday, Rog!
