Livia

Photographer

Hi, I'm Livia!

(pronouns: they/them)

My passion for documenting real, unscripted moments—whether it’s a family at home, a beloved pet, or a celebration of life—fuels everything I do as a photographer. Each session is about more than just pictures; it’s about preserving the raw emotion, the beauty in everyday details, and the stories that make life meaningful. As both a social worker (MSW) and documentary photographer, I bring a unique blend of empathy and artistry to my practice.

When my mother passed away, my relationship with life and death shifted. Walking through nature and rediscovering photography became my way of healing.

I believe in photography's power to connect us to ourselves and each other. My goal is to create images that make you pause, reflect, and feel deeply.

I embrace natural light, candid smiles, everyday chaos, and, most of all, authenticity. Because when everything else fades, it’s the genuine moments we carry with us forever.

Serving families across Northern California - from the Sacramento Valley to the San Francisco Bay Area and San José - I invite you to join me in documenting life's precious moments. Together, we'll celebrate the beauty of your unique journey, one frame at a time.
