Image of the Week • Newborn Baby Photography Miami

Remember this chic Mommy’s maternity session? Well, not too long after that session, baby Ivanna was born. Welcome to the world Ivanna! They came to the studio for a very quiet, sweet, intimate newborn photo session that was one of the quickest I’ve ever done. Ivanna was out practically the whole time and allowed me...

Five times three • Quince Photos Miami Fifteens

This session was on my calendar since the beginning of the year. We had talked about clothing, locations, colors, invitations, theme, hair, make-up…you name it…we talked about it. The session day finally arrived and it was AMAZING! Granted, it was exhausting, but being a photographer doesn’t get much more fun than this…three locations and five...

A Promise is a Promise• Quince Photography Miami

At long last! I promised this sweet girl a blog post of her fabulous sessions and had not been able to deliver because it’s been CRA.ZY!! I made an extra long post, I confess, out of guilt at first; but once I started, it became obvious that I just needed to show more because they...

Sweet Fifteen • Fine Art Quince Photos

There’s so much in photography, as much as in life, that you just have to feel your way through…just sort of go with the flow. This session was just that. There are many great shots that I’ll be posting in a couple of days, but couldn’t wait to share this one. I love the feel...

Beautiful Simplicity • Photography Pregnancy Miami

This maternity session was discussed and set-up with Liliana within 4 days. She was worried that the baby might come a little early, so we scheduled her shoot in the studio to avoid the uncertainty of weather affecting the shoot. I love the simplicity and beauty of these shots. She was really relaxed and couldn’t...

When it rains… • maternity photography miami

…you make some of the softest, sweetest shots that you can imagine. We started the session with beautiful sunshine as you can see in the first shot. Not forty minutes later, a big dark cloud came to threaten Melissa’s maternity shoot. It just poured down in bucket loads, but, we would not be deterred –...

Image of the Week • Baby Photography Miami

She smiled. She laughed. She cried. She drank. She drooled. But one of my favorite shots from Angelina’s second session was this very tender look she gave me when I got so close to her face that she just had to look as if to say “hey lady, back up a little”. If she could...

Tyler, Watch out • baby photography miami photos

I think this first shot is one of the funniest things I’ve photographed in a while. Those funny moments are so priceless in their innocence and hilarity that I just had to post that image. I wouldn’t expect anything less from little Miss Skylar. This munchkin is one of the most advanced babies I’ve ever...

it doesn’t matter • Senior photos graduation photography Miami

In every location session, an interesting balance of many variables must occur in order to make a photo work, make it “spark”. There are the tangible things like the subject, the light, the equipment, the location, the style, and the “posing”; and then there are the intangibles like colors, composition, relationships, moods, and energy. The...
