    Cal State LA Graduation: Celeste

    Celeste is celebrating her hard-fought accomplishments! She completed her Bachelor of Arts in Psychology at Cal State Fullerton and now she has earned her master’s degree in social work! She chose this field because of her deep desire to advocate for and support the underprivileged. Helping others has always been a passion of hers, and social work provided her with the opportunity to make a meaningful impact across various areas.

    The cutest ones to be photographed at her grad session were four adorable dog. Dogs have always played a significant role in Celeste’s life. Her dogs, Link and Ganon, are cherished members of her family and mean the world to her. Family is also incredibly important to Celeste. Since her undergraduate years, her loved ones have consistently supported and believed in her. In particular, her girlfriend Dyanne and her brother Mario have been constant sources of encouragement and strength, standing by her during challenging times.

      Cal State Long Beach Graduation: Rosie

      The journey of a first-generation college student is rarely easy. What may seem like routine steps for some—applying to college, filling out forms, standing in lines—can feel overwhelming when you’re the first in your family to do it. You wonder if you belong. You hope and pray for acceptance. You dream of the day you’ll walk across that stage and earn your degree. You are the first—but you won’t be the last.

      Rosie began her college journey at Santa Ana College in 2018, ultimately earning her Associate of Science in Business Administration in 2023. Life threw unexpected challenges her way—she became a mother, faced the trials of single parenthood, and endured the emotional weight of a difficult custody battle. Despite these obstacles, she persevered. After being accepted to four CSU campuses, Rosie chose to continue her education at Cal State Long Beach, pursuing a degree in Management Information Systems. Go Beach!

      Balancing full-time work, full-time studies, and single motherhood, Rosie faced some of the most demanding moments of her life. But she didn’t do it alone. Her parents and daughter were her anchor. Her mom’s warm meals, her dad’s small acts of care—like filling up her gas tank—and her daughter’s energy and love gave her the strength to keep going.

      Rosie dedicates this achievement to her family—for their unwavering support, for standing by her in her darkest hours, and for believing in her even when she struggled to believe in herself. On her graduation cap is the image of the Virgin of Guadalupe—a symbol of her faith, her prayers, and the divine guidance that carried her through the hardest days. Her cap is both a tribute and a testament to the strength she found through her spirituality.

      Just one month before graduation, in April 2025, Rosie and her family suffered a devastating loss: her grandfather passed away. He came to the United States with hope for a better future for his family. Though he isn’t here to witness this milestone, Rosie knows he is watching over her—proud of the woman and mother she has become.

      Rosie hopes her daughter sees this accomplishment and feels inspired. She wants her to dream big, pursue higher education, and go further than she did. As a first-generation college graduate, Rosie is breaking generational cycles. With faith, family, and perseverance, she believes there are no limits to what her daughter—or anyone—can achieve.

            I am a story teller with camera. I love capturing details... your shoes next your bouquet, a close up of your rings, flowers down the aisle. I love capturing emotions...your fiancé's face when he sees you for the first time, your mom biting her lip as she sees your dad walk you down the aisle and you laughing as your Maid of Honor tells the behind the scenes part of your love story. I love capturing amazing moments...your first kiss as husband and wife... Yes, I am a romantic and I am blessed to do what I love. I get to capture the ultimate promise of love... a wedding.

            A picture captures a moment in life, a reason to remember, holding the ones we LOVE... FOREVER.. in a Story in Time.
