We're Positively Picturesque!
Jake and Zack’s Hang Ten Holiday session
Posted on November 3, 2014
Who says holiday photos have to be posed around trees and fireplaces with Santas and sleds? Here in South Florida the sun is (almost!) always shining, and the beaches are open year round. Floridians live in a culture of perennial sports and summer skin, so when Jake and Zack wanted photos skateboarding on the beach for their Christmas pictures I thought – why not?
Nella
Posted on October 25, 2014
One of my favorite types of sessions is head shots. I love intimate portraits that organically show an individual’s personality. Working with Nella I immediately realized what a vibrant, witty, and dynamic person she is. We had a blast together, and I think these photos are proof positive of that.
Jenny and Javier – love in motion!
Posted on October 11, 2014
There is a radiance to most newly engaged couples, yet in the case of Jenny and Javier their easy laughter and sweet smiles were incredibly touching. One of the most wonderful things about being a photographer is witnessing love in fluid motion, and when these two looked at each other adoration love was perfectly palpable.
Julian’s Third Birthday – Constructing Sweet Memories!
Posted on September 16, 2014
Suzzell and I went to middle to school together, but I hadn’t been in touch with her in forever, so when she contacted me about photographing her oldest son Julian’s third birthday I was beyond elated!
Julian’s birthday party was immensely imaginative and fun. All the food, decorations and goody bags were perfectly on pointe with the construction theme. Julian had a blast and I loved being able to snap shots while everybody enjoyed themselves!
One of my favorite things about event photography is the amount of colorful candid photos you can capture if you just step back and watch people interact, it truly lends itself to some sweet memories.
Alexandra and Jason – A Lifetime of Love, and Laughter
Posted on September 5, 2014
I didn’t get into photography because I was into fancy gear, or was incredibly artistic – photography has clung to me since childhood because I love people. One of the things I adore about my job is meeting people and hearing their stories, and everybody appreciates a great love story.
When I saw the tender way Jason looked at Alex, and how she laughed at his jokes with her whole being their love wasn’t just clear, it was palpable. I have no doubt that these two will cherish each other for a lifetime.
The Perez Family – Picture Perfection!
Posted on August 3, 2014
It’s rare to photograph a large family where everybody is not only photogenic, but in pitch perfect harmony with each other. The Perez family was just that needle in the haystack! Even more inspiring was how happy, silly and loving they were. I usually spend much of a session trying to get my clients to feel at ease – being in front of a stranger who is photographing you can be incredibly intimadating – but the Perez family was a dream! I was the one who felt instantly comfortable with this big, beautiful family.
These are some of my favorite family photographs ever – I think the easy laughs and smiling eyes captured speak for themselves.
8th Grade Prom
Posted on June 25, 2014
“It was the best night, never would forget how we moved, the whole place was dressed to the nines
And we were dancing, dancing, like were made of starlight.” – Taylor Swift
What a fun, lively, lovely group of teens! I had the best time photographing this group of friends before their 8th grade dance.
The Prieto Family –
Posted on April 23, 2014
Jessica and Rolando have the most gorgeous family, and I was thrilled to be shooting their family session. Their three children are not only beautiful but some of the most well behaved I’ve met! Jessica’s younger sister and her best friend also took part in the photo shoot, and I think these pictures capture what a fun, playful and loving extended family they are.
Felix’s Rodeo Birthday – Cowboys, Cotton Candy and Horses – oh my!
Posted on March 23, 2014
Some photographers aren’t fans of event work, they deem it ‘inartistic’ – but I enjoy it to the fullest! Meeting new people, watching families create memories, capturing great candid shots that show tender moments between different generations – event shoots hold a special place in my heart.
For Felix’s first birthday his parents planned this wild west theme to a tee – every detail was picture perfect and on theme. Everybody had a wonderful time, and I was so pleased to preserve these special memories!
The Mendoza family – Making memories
Posted on March 23, 2014
I first took photos of Balmy and Robert for their engagement in 2009. I can’t describe what an absolute joy it was to be taking their family portraits five years later!
They are such a lovely family, and it was so much fun taking not only family pictures, but squeezing in some sweet couple photos.
