About My Photography
As the mother of a toddler I'm so lucky to have a front row seat on the amazing event of a child's life. Each smile, each giggle, each teardrop all make up breathtaking moments as this little person learns about the world. Photography is a wonderful medium allowing me to capture these moments and treasure them always. My favorite photos are the ones which remind us of the joys of childhood, give us a peek into a significant relationship or make us laugh.
A successful photo session includes tons of giggling and fun as I get to know you and your family. I will do whatever it takes to catch these fleeting moments we have unfolding in front of us. Whether I'm crawling in the grass or climbing trees I'll be engaging with your family as well as my own inner kid. Being a mom I understand that things don't always go according to plan - I always break for snacks, meltdowns or the ice cream truck - anything goes. And often those unscripted moments give us the perfect photos that will grace the walls, books and hearts of your home.
Through Autumn's Lens is one of the photo studios that patronizes BayPhoto - a professional photo lab offering a myriad of print products ranging from canvas wraps to photo books to greeting cards. In our digital age the imagination is our only limitation - just bring your ideas and I'll find the vendor who can print your favorite photo anywhere from on a blanket for your couch to on the side of your horse trailer (that was a fun project).
When those amazing unscripted moments arrive and everything lines up perfectly I can rely on over 10 years of experience to be sure I catch the photo. My career has taken me overseas and around the U.S. where I've worked for various print publications and event coordinators capturing portrait, travel, lifestyle and sport imagery. And each new project brings me new ideas that I add to my experience.
I can't wait to meet you and your family should you choose Through Autumn's Lens.

The pictures made me misty eyed because they are so lovely. Lily asked me why I was all teary and before I could say anything she said, "I know, because the pictures are so beautiful!"

We loved the prints and disk that we purchased! I immediately framed one of the 8x10s, and have been enjoying it since it arrived. And the grandparents have enjoyed viewing it digitally, through e-mail. Thank you!

Sara
Just wanted you to know how much I appreciate your eye for catching the fleeting beauty that we so often miss or just barely see. You have trained yourself to look into and beyond what the average person sees and a talent to grasp the emotion surrounding it.
Boone
Your perspective is so attractive and astounding! I viewed your web site and came away amazed. You see a side of your subjects and capture what would otherwise be unnoticed or lost within that one moment when light or movement changes.
Rhonda
I have visited your website and compliment you on your beautiful work.
Ann
You captured Cody's soul. I've had other professional portraits done of him, but no one has gotten such good shots. The collage is perfect. I'll spread the word about your talent.

Ms. Fuentes developed pieces of investigative and editorial journalism - which included photographic assignments - on the topics of tourism and sociology. Autumn also showed a unique creative talent, which allowed her to produce elegant and agile pieces where her humor and the presentation of her ideas and original concepts were always present.
