Half Orange Photography

Hello my name is Tania Gonzalez and I am the one behind the camera! I have been a photographer for 5 years! WOW that's cray cray. If you're looking for a wedding photographer or looking forward to have some portraits taken I am here to help! Soy bilingüe (I'm bilingual). I am fluent in Spanish and English!

Es viernes y el cuerpo lo sabe!! . What?!?! I type and speak Spanish?!?! YES I DO . Spanish was my first language. I had to speak Spanish for my dad to give me, mi Domingo (my Sunday) which means my allowance . . What languages did you grow up speaking?!

Hey! My name is Tania Gonzalez And lately I've missed going out and exploring nature. I had the blessing of exploring Malibu for a bet and the unique foods LA offers . I've learned to appreciate me time a lot more, especially during quarantine! . . Me time is for you to get better, feel better. Many times all we want to do is hustle to be successful. But successful for who?! For you or for others to see? If it's for you then take some me time. Trust me it's a huge ble...ssing!! You get to reenergize, process your vision for yourself better and your body!!!! will thank you. . . Everyone's me time looks different. Some just need quite time with the Lord, reading scripture, having prayer time. And others go to nature. There are millions of different ways! Find yours and get some rest, peace and continue the journey of life See more

Happy one year anniversary!!! May the Lord continue to bless and flourish your marriage. Can't wait to see you all grow super old and have babies

Where to take pictures?! . . . The most asked question. Well it depends if it's your engagement session anywhere can work. But if it's on your wedding day it depends on your location and your timeline. ... . . . I don't want you to skip a huge portion of your wedding just to take portraits. Enjoy your day!! I will scout out the place and suggest areas nearby but I care more for you to be most of the time celebrating with your love ones. . . . That's what photography is about for me, to capture the timeless memories to cherish for others to see. I want to tell your story of the day not just how good you look. Of course I'll try my best to capture your beauty but I want to capture the genuine you too See more

My favorite part about photography is hearing my clients. I love getting to know their stories. I don't know if it's being a "chismosa," nosey lol I DON'T THINK SO . I just love getting to know the real them. Their love stories. How they got to know each other, who made the first move. . . . It's so fascinating hearing about long distance relationships, dating apps, through friends, through church ETC. So many ways to find love. ... . . . There's many ways to find love, there's also many ways to give it. And I'm not talking just romantic love. There's also loving your neighbor, serving love, etc... Have you seek and given that type of love? See more

Small weddings are my faves!!! I used to like the idea of big weddings but after capturing a few weddings I really love how intimate small weddings are and!!! Cheaper too! . . . Mark and Daniele intended to have a bigger wedding but because of the crazy pandemic they moved their celebration with friends and family to another day. But what matters the most is that they got to celebrate their love and unity under God.... . . . Sometimes things won't come out as planned but that doesn't mean things can't come through. See more

Soon to be mommies!!! You women rock! It's a blessing that y'all can bring life to earth and continue to shine. . . God made us warriors. Remember that! You are a warrior, a conquerer, a pearl meant to shine.

Photobomb And here's another it's Friday! It literally feels like yesterday was July 1st and summer was starting to look a little bet more normal. . . . Oh well... surprise, surprise... Time is flying quick and we're more than half way 2020. ... . . . Let's not get discourage that the plans didn't turn out to be what we wanted. Sometimes unexpected change brings better outcomes. I know... It's hard to accept but if we stay in the pessimistic side we'll never see the possible joy that it can truly bring. See more

And boom! Just like that this photo got bombed . And also another it's Friday! It literally feels like yesterday was July 1st and summer was starting to look a little bet more normal. . . . Oh well... surprise, surprise... Time is flying quick and we're more than half way 2020. ... . . . Let's not get discourage that the plans didn't turn out to be what we wanted. Sometimes unexpected change brings better outcomes. I know... It's hard to accept but if we stay in the pessimistic side we'll never see the possible joy that it can truly bring. @ Clovis, California See more

Quarantine did not stop them from saying, "I do !" to forever! <3 Thanks Daniele Ghabrial and Mark Ghabrial for letting me capture your special day! #QuarantineWedding #SneakPeek

A year has pass since this photo... WOW!! I seriously took this social media break in this account pretty hard. . . . I love photography but I love myself more. I really needed this time to reflect on myself and for who or why was I pursuing photography. Honestly photography will always be in my life but I don't know for how long I'll be dedicating my calendar to capture timeless love stories.... . . . I have a passion for God's kingdom and if the Big Man calls me to serve elsewhere other than photography I'm ready to say, "yes Lord" . . . Pss... You think I say this lightly and easily. Oh no...!!! I cried for a very long time during my social media break to say these words. Photography is my comfort zone. And God made me realize it was also an idol in my life. I had to give up photography during that specific season. So I did and man... God has move and continues to do it so powerfully everyday @ Yosemite National Park See more

Once upon a time there was one and then two became one happy couple under God and now they're one happy family! . . . How many times did I use 1? Ya see... God unifies, not divides
