I'm an artist, a product designer, a cool mom, a freak in the sheets, and a bad mother f*cker in the streets. 

Outside of my day job and photographing, you'll find me often outside camping with family, learning to surf slowly, or in the middle of some kind of crafting project or aquascaping piece. I also love a nasty romp with romantasy when I crack open a book.

I love all things creative (hello to my many crafting hobbies) but I am obsessed and most passionate about capturing the feminine spirit, and I can't wait to meet you.

Hi, I'm Rocky 👋

I love good times, with good people (especially bad b*tches) 🤘  I love good times, with good people (especially bad b*tches) 🤘

Don't fool yourself—society has taught you no matter what, your body is never perfect. It doesn't matter if you're a size 2 or 22, something will always be wrong. 

Well, I say—F*CK THAT. Don't let the bastards win. You are magic. You are ethereal. Every scar, fold, mark, crease, and texture your body holds tells your story. Let's capture it.

Your body is worthy now of being seen—not a few years ago, or a few months from today. NOW.

LET'S MAKE SOME MAGIC

I grew up in a body-neutral household, thanks to my bad*ass momma (pictured here). My mother not once, EVER—talked about my body in reference to its changing shape or weight. She refused to instill any of the toxic patriarchial traits that was passed down to her.

I grew up valuing my mind, my soul, my actions, rather than my looks. I started boudoir from a point of empowerment, and my mission is to help other women (and womxn) to see themselves in as they are—magic beings worthy of being seen and adored.


Why did I create Love Spell?

Boudoir is healing, empowering, and uplifting. Boudoir is healing, empowering, and uplifting. Boudoir is healing, empowering, and uplifting.

I am a mediocre avionics tech in the Navy but I meet the love of my life. After serving 4 years,I go to college for my degree in design and photography.

2019

I consider this year my renaissance, where I truly honed my style of dreamy, emotive, moody photography with a focus on dramatic lightning. This is also the year I stopped taking family clients and going forward, all creative time are focused on supporting my boudoir baddies.

1988

I enter this world, camera at the ready.

→

Working remote while living la vida mamĂĄ, I start Love Spell Photography, focused on families and maternity sessions.

→

A repeat client requests a boudoir session, and I fall head over heels with the empowering experience. I do a lot of "white room boudoir" sessions that I look back now on with just a twinge of cringe 😂

→

Me and the family move back to San Diego after a few years away in Texas, and I start experimenting with my aesthetic, getting away from the typical pinup style.

The empowering experience of boudoir is welcome to all—any race, gender expression, sexual orientation, size, or age.

I support and love working with members of the LGBTQIA+ community.

I recognize sex work as real work. I am sex positive and will never kink shame. 

I am your photographer if you want more than a pretty picture—I am here to capture and tell your truth.


You are welcome here.

Inclusive. Supportive. Loved.

KIND WORDS

"From the very first email, she exuded warmth and thoughtfulness, handling my endless questions with grace and care. She went above and beyond to tailor the experience, ensuring we felt not only comfortable but celebrated. What I didn’t anticipate was how profoundly empowering the shoot would be. When old insecurities crept in, she effortlessly dismantled them, replacing self-doubt with confidence and self-love.

Her ability to create a space that felt both safe and sultry was nothing short of magical. Even when I hit a few technical snags with the album, her patience and support never wavered. Her soft, easygoing presence made the entire experience seamless and uplifting.

Would I recommend her? Absolutely. She doesn’t just take photos—she captures your best self in a way that leaves you glowing long after the shoot ends."

"I had an amazing experience with Rocky!! This was my first ever Boudoir shoot. I was completely nervous and inexperienced as far as posing and looking “sexy”. Rocky walked me through the entire photoshoot I felt comfortable and supported throughout the whole thing!

The client closet was huge and a great variety as far as styles and sizes. I felt accommodated and like a complete model! The results were DROP DEAD BEAUTIFUL. Her style is amazing, the pictures were giving dreamy, sexy, steamy, beautiful.. everything!!! She loves what she does and it reflects in her work 1000%. If you are contemplating whether or not to do it here is your sign to schedule with Rocky you won’t regret it I promise!

My photoshoot resulted in more than just pictures they are masterpieces 🤌🏼🤌🏼 true art !!!!! This was hands down a memorable experience.!!!"

"I can't say enough amazing things about Rocky and the boudoir session she captured for me. The location she chose was absolutely perfect—every detail added to the magic of the shoot.

Rocky has an incredible gift for making you feel like the most beautiful version of yourself. I was nervous going in, but she took her time to ensure I felt comfortable, confident, and completely at ease. From playing music to sharing laughs, the whole experience felt so personal and empowering.

She truly understands her subject and brings out the best in you. I wouldn't change a single thing about the day. I'm forever grateful to Rocky for giving me such a transformative and unforgettable experience."

To begin, her attention to detail and communication is unmatched, she really goes above and beyond in ensuring visions align and making sure you're well prepared. She makes the photoshoot so effortless, it was such a blast and she creates such a stress-free and safe environment! Her work is literally perfection - I am still speechless from the photos that Rocky took and never imagined I could look so confident!

"Rocky was so so amazing! This is my first time doing a solo shoot of any kind and she made me feel so safe and comfortable right away.

By the end it felt like we were friends just having a good time hanging out and making something beautiful. As a not thin person the world likes to put me in a box and I am so grateful to Rocky for holding the same space for me as everyone else.

If you’re on the fence, do it. Especially if it’s your first time! Also the vibes were immaculate and the aesthetic was absolute perfection. I will be back for more!"
