I’m Angelina Parra, a Mexican-American photographer based in the Bay Area. My work is fueled by curiosity, creativity, and a commitment to capturing moments that feel both honest and timeless.

With years of experience photographing portraits, events, and community gatherings, I’ve learned that the most powerful images come from genuine connection. I approach every project with intention — listening, observing, and creating space for people to feel comfortable and seen. Whether it’s a milestone celebration, a professional portrait, or an intimate creative collaboration, my goal is to document the energy and emotion of the moment so it can be felt long after.

As a Latina, I carry with me a strong sense of heritage, resilience, and pride, which influences not just how I see the world but also how I engage with it. My compass is connection: building bridges between people, communities, and cultures. Every face tells a story of joy, struggle, love, or resilience, and I see photography as a way of weaving those stories together into a shared narrative that feels personal and universal at once.

Whether I’m collaborating with other creatives, curating exhibitions, or simply sharing stories over coffee, my goal is the same: to create images that make people feel seen, valued, and truly recognized.
