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?
Casa Real | Classic Black Tie Wedding | Christa + Travis
Casal Real Wedding
Not a dry eye was in the house while Christa and Travis exchanged their hand written vows at Casa Real. With exquisite attention to detail, Christa created a luxury experience for her guests, yet all eyes were on the love in their eyes. Yes, that’s right! Christa is a wedding planner with incredible taste and the heart for designing unforgettable experiences. This was by far the most organized and prepared wedding day I have ever shot!
Christa and Travis are adored by their family and friends with friendships that began decades ago. Growing up in Almaden Valley with a mutual love for the water Christa and Travis met at the swim club at a young age. Their friendship grew over the years with tons of memories and even a hardship that united them like never before. Together they have an incredible support system and the cutest son to continue creating lasting memories. Their love is contagious, like a magnet you just want to be near.
During the reception after all of the sweet, funny and endearing speeches Christa and Travis grabbed the mic to share their gratitude. Travis thanked their parents and everyone for coming to share their celebration, then Christa grabbed the mic. After echoing his appreciation, Christa couldn’t end their speech without telling the world that although everything about their day was perfect, she looked at Travis and said, “With all the beautiful details of today, I couldn’t imagine standing here and enjoying this moment with anyone, but you.”
Now of course, this was just by memory as tears were falling between my cheek and the camera! Christa had such a beautiful way of sharing a heart full of gratitude for her family that helped bring this day to life, yet taking a moment to look into the eyes of her husband to thank him, too.
Thank you Christa + Travis for creating such a beautiful, classic and timeless wedding, such a symbol of your love and relationship! I wish you the best as you continue to live your happily ever after. Forever.
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!
