Meet Sydney | Laura Turner | Sotelo | CEO

We had the good fortune of connecting with Sydney | Laura Turner | Sotelo and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Sydney | Laura, is there something that you feel is most responsible for your success?
We love to form authentic and genuine connections with our clients that so many of them feel like friends and family to us now. It is such an honor to be invited back event after event by the same people and have the invitation to stay and celebrate along side them, be extended to us.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
Both of us come from a studio photography background which instilled our love for creating memories with families. This is where we met each other and became best friends. Through this journey we have explored our creative sides and expanded our skill set incredibly. We have learned that persistence and staying true to ourselves, is key in succeeding.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
One of our favorite things to do is try new coffee places across the Los Angeles area. Along with that, our go to for visitors is having a funnel cake at the Santa Monica Pier and checking out the city view from Griffith Observatory.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
We are so grateful to our friends and family for the support they offered us from the very start. It has made the process so much easier for us. Along with that, we would like to extend a huge thank you to Erika Gonzalez of Shop Small Soiree for taking a chance on us, believing in us and helping us grow.
