marcela milagrosa portrait photography, San Jose

What services does your business offer and what makes your business stand out from the competition?
My goal is to make sure that your man looks like a boss and as masculine as possible. I am well aware that a lot of men do not like being in front of a camera. I always take the time to make both people look amazing and in love. Also, I am very good in Photoshop. Every photograph will be retouched.

What was the inspiration to start or run this business?
I needed a headshot for a job. I found a photographer, but he didn't retouch the photo to make me look my best. What's up with that? And so, I bought my own camera. Never would have thought that I would fall in love.

What do you love most about your job?
The most rewarding feeling is when someone realizes that they are truly beautiful when they look at the photographs I produce. I love that I can create confidence in people. I love creating.

What is the best reaction you've ever gotten from a customer?
Crying. I had a client look at the photographs and started to cry. She held the proofs close to her heart and guarded them with her crossed arms. Almost made me cry.
