I'm Michelle Carrillo... owner & photographer of the Suitcase Studio.
I think I see things a little differently than most people. I don't find beauty in perfection. I don't go for the perfectly posed photos, or smiles that have been practiced in the mirrors. Instead, I'm here to capture the REAL stuff... the moments that happen in-between those poses. The imperfect smiles, the nervous laughter, and even that crazy face you make when you think that no one else is watching.
To help keep it real, I shoot on-location here in Orange County, California. (No stuffy studio!) I travel to where you are... to whatever place showcases you and your style. My goal is to document real lIfe, and thus, I mainly focus on weddings & lifestyle/portrait photography.
From pics of recent clients to thoughts & images of my own life, I'm here to share this journey with you. Keepin' it real... one moment at a time.
Because this is real life. It doesn't have to be perfect to be beautiful.
Saturday was a good day to be at The Wedding Pantry…
After “following” her on Twitter for a while now, I finally had the chance to meet Jane Jeon in person, as she was hosting a trunk show for her jewelry line, OneTen Jewelry. I had a blast just hanging out with her and a few others, trying on everything in sight…
Here are a few images I snapped that afternoon.
If you like what you see, head on over to her website; her pieces will soon be available for purchase online.
