hi! i'm magdalene —
california photographer
capturing the beauty
of the human experience.






I’ve always felt a need to create since I was young - whether that be drawing, painting, dancing, sculpting - anything and everything I could get my hands on.
One thing that has followed me since my youth is the feeling of meaninglessness unless I share my creations with others... then it becomes complete. I am so honored to be sharing it with you. I look forward to our paths aligning.

rooted in connection.
The images we create together are your story, with mine hidden underneath. It’s my opinion that you cannot separate the art from the artist. And what my images say about me is that I feel the most alive when I make others feel seen.
My goal is to find what is hidden underneath: the real, authentic YOU, and celebrate that with acceptance and love. To turn the mirror to you and unveil the beauty, romance, and poetry that I see within you.

what inspires me —





One of my favorite things in the world is traveling. Experiencing different cultures, food, art, architecture, and nature has greatly influenced the art I create today. I am a destination photographer and would love to go anywhere you take me! Whether it be a different state, or a different country.

Let’s create something timeless together — photography that feels like poetry and celebrates your unique story.
"You always amaze me! I do not kid when I tell you as long as you’re a photographer you will ALWAYS be taking my pictures. You’re the best photographer out there no exaggeration. No one compares or even comes close.”
“The pictures are perfect, the moments you captured are perfect. Everything about the photos is PERFECT.
"It’s super important that when you are creating, you find someone who can take exactly what’s in your head and make it real. She did just that for me.”
“Magdalene captured all of my dreams and then some."
"Your work literally never disappoints. You are seriously so talented!”
