Hello everyone, it's Alexa, and today I'm super excited to share some amazing details about one of the most significant pre-Quinceañera events - My photoshoot with the incredibly talented Jesse Caballero. I've been eager to share this experience, so let's get right to it!

First, let's talk about the dress. The centerpiece of every Quinceañera - the dress - and mine was nothing short of breathtaking. The moment I put it on, I felt a rush of emotions. It was as if the dress was a physical representation of the transition I was about to make, and let me tell you, it fit perfectly, not just in size, but also in spirit. It was exactly how I envisioned my Quinceañera dress to be.

Jesse Caballero, our photographer, was the conductor of this symphony, guiding me through the various poses, capturing not just my image, but also the emotions and excitement I was feeling. Jesse has an amazing talent for making you feel comfortable and capturing the authentic you.

We shot in several locations, each with its own vibe, creating a stunning contrast between the different photos. There were moments of pure joy, moments of reflection, moments of anticipation for the future - all captured flawlessly through Jesse's lens.

These photographs aren’t just for keepsakes (although they're definitely that!), they have a larger purpose. They are to be projected on the big screen during my Quinceañera party, for all my loved ones to see.

And as if that wasn't enough, we also had a beautifully crafted photo book designed by their team. Flipping through the pages was like walking through a gallery of my emotions, my dreams, and my anticipation.

Amazing Portraits by Jesse Caballero!

That photoshoot, the pictures, and the memories they encapsulate are an integral part of my Quinceañera experience. They add an extra layer of joy and depth to my celebration, making it even more memorable.

As I flip through these pictures in the future, I'm sure I'll be taken right back to these precious moments of that I lived with my mom, all the anticipation, excitement, and joy. And that, my friends, is the power of a picture.

So, I decided to start this blog as a way to document my journey through this monumental year.

My 'Quince Años', as we say in Spanish. It's a major milestone, kind of like a marker between childhood and growing up, where I get to discover myself, embrace my roots, and begin shaping my future.

Despite all the fun and excitement, I admit there's a bit of trepidation. You know, the nervous flutter you get in your stomach before stepping onto a roller coaster? Yeah, that's kind of how it feels right now. But I'm ready, and eager, to dive into my quince party!

As I write this, I am surrounded by the love and warmth of my family and friends. We've been planning the Quinceañera for months now - picking out the perfect dress, setting up the venue, booking Jesse Caballero for my pictures and video, selecting the food and music - and let me tell you, it's been a fun, crazy roller-coaster. But it’s the kind of roller-coaster I would hop on again and again.

This blog isn't just about sharing my experiences planning the Quinceañera or telling you how the event goes (although there'll be plenty of that!).

It's also about sharing my thoughts, feelings, and experiences as I navigate this year in my life.

The journey of being 15 is about to unfold, and I am here to embrace every moment of it. Join me as I dive into this incredible year, complete with all its ups and downs, laughter and tears, surprises and memories. Here's to being 15 - bring it on, world!
