Episode 70 // Kate Garcia - Temecula Wedding Photographer by Ulices Del Toro

This week we have a Local Spotlight on Temecula Wedding Photographer Kate Garcia. Kate has been photographing weddings for as long as she can remember, and her work really speaks for itself, but what I admire from her the most is her ability to put out well written and interesting blogs full of helpful information. Some of her recent blogs have been a series on helpful tips during the Covid-19 pandemic. As a bride herself also affected by the pandemic, she wanted to add some guidance and knowledge to those struggling with their wedding planning and photographers with their businesses. It was really fun getting to know her and talk about all the things she’s working on!
