Fearless Love – espn.com | miami editorial photographer

I’ve been photographing the beautiful Boozer family for a couple of years now and was thrilled beyond words to know that Carmani, their oldest son, was cured of sickle cell anemia. The Boozer’s have started an organization called Boozer’s Buddies to raise awareness and funds to help kids and families suffering from this disease. ESPN.com...

fair-haired courageous one | miami newborn baby photographer

that’s the meaning of the name Finley which I thought was perfectly fitting for this sweet little angel. She was just under two weeks old and seemed like an old pro. I moved her around in all sorts of ways and she was just uninterested in anything I was doing to her. This is the...

Image(s) of the week | miami child photographer

After countless weather-caused reschedules, I finally got to photograph Naomi, a super smart, funny and talkative future Olympian (she just would not stop running and flipping). She had a mind of her own; the type of independence I just love to see in children. She has amazingly expressive eyes so I couldn’t post just one....

Fall is here… | miami child photographer fall

My favorite time of year for photography is finally here! Our enviable Miami “winter” is one the main reasons why Hurricane season is bearable for most of us. The weather is crisp, the light is beautiful, and you can drive with the windows down. I woke up early last Thursday – well, early for me...

Raining Rene’s | miami child photographer

This sweet angel is Rene. He came to the studio directly from school and his school clothes looked like they had had a good time during recess. Mom very patiently and lovingly changed him for the photo shoot and let him do his thing. He was very energetic and excited, yet he obliged me by...

Image of the Week | miami child photographer studio

Sweet Miss Asia is just too smart to describe. She was so spunky and delicious. I was the lucky recipient of several of her spontaneous hugs that just melted me into a puddle. And, she had an arsenal of “no’s” she knew exactly how to use! She just cracked me up. : ) vlm studios...

It’s all about Benjamin | miami newborn photographer

This is just too sweet for words. Benjamin’s first session was such a joy to do. He has two older brothers that I’ve had the privilege of photographing throughout their growing years and now I get to see Benjamin grow up as well. Thanks Nancy for continuing to invite me into your family through the...

Image of the Week | miami maternity photographer

Who says tutus are just for little girls! This Ballerina Mama is a dance teacher who brought the most fantabulous tutu for her maternity session. I fell in love with it instantly! Kinda like when I saw Patrick Dempsey in Can’t Buy Me Love…It was instant magic…love at first sight! Since she’s having a girl...

How fashionable! | miami high-school senior photographer

For Cristina’s S12 senior session, we went a little avant garde. She wanted funky, she wanted stylish and she wanted glamour. So….we did just that…. I love the last dress she wore, which is going to be her Prom dress. The color and the fabric, very very mermaid. Loved it! We got so many great...

7 Years and counting…

Today marks the 7th anniversary of VLM Studios opening it’s doors! Well, it was more like opening THE door. At the time I was working from a bedroom in my house with a very small dream of making enough to not have to work for anyone else. I had quit a very cushy job as...
