Adrianna + Seth in Love: South Florida Engagement Portraits
Posted on April 28, 2014
Adrianna + Seth are one of the most adorable and in love couples I have ever met. Photographing them was so easy. They were just themselves, and all I did was capture their moments. By the end, Seth even said he had forgotten I was there!
You wouldn’t believe it by looking at these photos, but it was absolutely pouring and storming up until the moment that Adrianna + Seth arrived. I literally sat in my car and prayed for about half an hour or so, willing the rain to stop. It stopped and started several times while I was waiting, but when Adrianna + Seth arrived, it was as if God said, “Here is your perfect light!”
It didn’t rain at all for the entire session, although if you look closely, you’ll be able to spot some raindrops from the gorgeous trees that dripped on to them at the beginning of the shoot. I left these drops there because I think they tell the perfect story of a relationship: sometimes there are storms, and rain falls, but LOVE can make it through anything.
Alright, I will stop gushing about now, but fair warning: I am a tad obsessed with how these turned out. But seriously, how could I not be?
Thank you, Adrianna + Seth for allowing me to capture your love! I know that your wedding day is going to be the beginning of a great and awesome journey for you both. I wish you many blessings!

My Easter Kitty

Just for fun and a whole lot of cuteness, I dressed my kitty up in a bow tie collar for Easter Sunday. I think he looks quite dapper. =)
Hope you had a blessed holiday weekend!
Ryan: Class of 2015, Downtown West Palm Beach, South Florida Senior Portrait Session
Posted on April 20, 2014
Ryan is such an awesome young man. He’s a super laid back, killer wrestler with a heart of gold. Even though Ryan and I just “met” earlier this year at church, I’ve actually known Ryan most of his life. I used to take care of him in our church nursery when I was in high school and he was a little kid, haha! But Ryan is not a little kid anymore, he’s graduating high school in 2015 and almost an adult. Time flies!
I am really falling more and more in love with Downtown West Palm Beach lately. We started our session near the water, which provided a great backdrop for some simple portraits.
Downtown West Palm has so many little hidden, beautiful spots, and Ryan was game for trying out several of them. We walked and drove around, stopping whenever we found a gem.
Of course it wouldn’t be a senior session if we didn’t get a little silly! =) I call this series, “Freedom.”
I still can’t quite believe how grown up Ryan looks in these next few. Soon he will be graduating and starting his adult life. It makes me feel a little old!
You want to know why I love being a senior portrait photographer? Because teenagers are up for anything, literally. When I told Ryan to go climb this wall, he didn’t even bat an eye. He just got on up there and let me take these amazing shots of him. And when I told him to stand in the middle of the road (don’t worry, we had a lookout– thanks, JD!), he ran right in.
For the last part of our session, I wanted a more urban feel. Ryan’s varsity wrestling jacket is such a cool personal item of his, and I really wanted to show it off. This art wall was a totally awesome space to do that in.
Thank you, Ryan, for allowing me to capture your senior portraits! I can’t wait to see what the future holds for you!

Erin + Manny: Maternity Session, Fort Lauderdale Beach [South Florida Maternity Photographer]
Posted on April 13, 2014
I’ve known Manny for several years now. Last year he married a beautiful & wonderful woman named Erin, and their first child, James, is due in about two weeks! I was so excited to be given the opportunity to capture their growing family and Erin’s gorgeous 9 month belly bump! 
We captured our session on Fort Lauderdale beach, which ended up being quite the adventure. Although you wouldn’t know it from these photos, the beach was actually packed with “spring breakers” having a giant beach party! Luckily, Erin & Manny already have two qualities that every parent needs: flexibility and a laid back attitude. They didn’t stress the crowd at all, and we were able to find our own little corner of the beach to have some privacy for our session. 
As the sun began to set and the beachgoers started to pack things up, we headed down to the water for some of my favorite shots of the evening.
The sunset behind the trees was just beautiful, but of course Erin’s amazing and gorgeous bump took center stage!
On our walk over to the beach, I saw this amazing art wall, and just knew we needed to use it in our session. I love how these turned out. Finding those unexpected places to shoot is one of my favorite parts of on-location portrait photography. I love the dolphin giving Erin’s shoulder a “kiss!”
We ended our session as the sun was setting over the water. It was a beautiful spring evening and the breeze and water made for a calming effect as we wrapped.
Thank you so much to Erin & Manny for allowing me to capture this special time in your life! I can’t wait to see baby James! =)
