Hello! My name is Mochie and I’m a lifestyle and wedding film photographer based in TX.

I’ve been a photographer for 15+ years and consider the people in my life — both new and lifetime family & friends — to be God’s greatest gift to me. Nothing sparks more joy than my family, good friendships, and beauty that comes from the soul.

My hope is to capture the moments that tend to slip by too quickly in a way that is beautiful + timeless so you can cherish them forever.

A little bit about me and where I come from —

I was born in Thailand to Cambodian parents, spent most of my life in Tacoma, WA, and have more recently moved our family of 5 (6 — if you count our Bernese Mountain Dog, Jack) to Fort Worth, TX.

I’m always looking forward to and dreaming about the future. There are so many different ways I draw inspiration for what I do – seeing the world through my kids’ eyes, dreaming big with my husband, eating good food, going on adventures, and through my faith.

Things I love: My family, coffee shops, the color green, Anthropologie, spicy margaritas, fries and a good chicken sandwich.

  • This depends on the type of session and package you’re interested in. Normal sessions last anywhere between 30-60 minutes.

  • This depends on type of session and time of year! During non-peak wedding season, my turnaround is 1-2 weeks for normal shoots. This can go up to 3 weeks during peak season. As for weddings, I have a 6-8 week turnaround which is stated in our contract!

    Once the images are ready, you’ll receive an email with a link to your digital gallery where you can download all of the images and share as you like.

  • I’m based out of Aledo, TX, but frequently book in California and Western Washington. If you’re somewhere else, I’d stil love to hear from you to see if we can make it happen! I love traveling.

  • Most sessions in WA have no additional costs since I’m there frequently. There is always a flight fee for shoots in CA — please email me or fill out the contact form for details.

  • I know most clients are either nervous or excited (or both!) so I try to send sneak peeks 1-2 days after the session or wedding.

  • These are some of my favorite sessions! The limited amount of images per rolls makes each time I hit the trigger that much more thoughtful and meaningful. This slower pace and approach usually make film sessions last a bit longer than traditional shoots. Let me tell you, the wait is well worth it! All of the images on my website are from film sessions.

  • I’m from Seattle, so I can manage with some rain! Ultimately, I leave it up to you to decide whether you want to reschedule to a non-rainy day. We could always move the session to a covered area or rent a studio.

  • You’ll be asked to pay a deposit to hold your spot and complete the total payment before we shoot. You will be sent an invoice to pay online.
