About

January 4, 2010

Cesar and Desserie Palima are a husband and wife photography team based in Elk Grove, Sacramento County and serving all of Northern California, including the Bay Area. They specialize in Weddings, High School Senior Portraits, and Children.

Cesar was practically born in his father’s studio in the Philippines. He learned the trick of the trade first hand from the best teacher, his dad. Cesar, at 15 years old, shot his first wedding coverage by himself. From then on, he wanted to fill his head with new trends in photography to be successful in his profession. Cesar opened his first portrait studio in 1994. It was a success but he had to leave it all when he met Desserie.

Desserie and Cesar met in his studio in 1997. As time passed by, they became best of friends. In the year 2000, they had a fairytale wedding. Since then, Desserie knew that she will wake up, eat, sleep, and live “PHOTOGRAPHY”. Desserie was always interested in photography since she was little but never thought she would be considered a professional. Cesar taught her the basics and she developed her own style. In 2004, Desserie and Cesar moved to Elk Grove, CA with their beautiful daughter Brielle and started their first portrait studio together known as Artpix Portrait Studio.

This blog is for you to see what inspires Cesar and Desserie to continue capturing people who “SPARKLE AND SHINE” just by having fun and being themselves. Their goal is to make artistic imagery you’ll never forget.

Take some time to poke around the blog and get to know Cesar and Desserie. Hope their work inspires you!
