Their first • Miami family photographer

This was their first professional photo session. I’m so happy that Mom loved their photos and incredibly honored that they chose VLM Studios. From the get go Jaylen was non-stop as ALL almost-two-year-olds are at this stage. When we got to the beach he did not like the sand at all, but eventually warmed up...

Daniella’s Wonderland • Children Photographer Miami

There are too many images from this gorgeous Alice in Wonderland inspired first birthday party to try to fit into this post, so here’s the short version…. there were characters, a butterfly release, a candy station, adorable bunnies, incredible children’s table, an awe-inspiring cake, a harp player, classical string quartet and, of course, loads of...

Analis’ Monster Quince Photos • Fifteens Photos Miami

Three sessions, three locations, a Lady Gaga “monster” inspired themed party, purple tennis shoes, synchronicity with a vintage car, rain, fantastic make-up, and ALL an absolute blast! Can’t tell you how much fun it was to photograph Analis and hang out with her awesome Mom (and their “Mack Daddy” make-up artist Jonathan). There are nearly...

5 Guys & 2 Ladies • Family photographer miami

When baby Nicolas was born, big brother Gabriel said they were now ’5 Guys’ and he was beyond ecstatic that it was yet another brother. I’ve photographed the boys since they were born and for the first time we have been able to do a complete family photo session…the 5 Guys and the 2 Ladies....

It’s very clear • Senior Portrait Photographer Miami

It is very clear from the moment you meet Megan that she is very clear about who she is and what she wants. She’s an absolute original whose authenticity and boldness, I venture to guess, may not be applauded in the halls of high-schools, but will totally be hailed in the halls of life. As...

Funky Quince • Miami Fifteen Photographer

My attempt to catch up on blog posts continues! Here are Yansari’s very funky Quince sessions from back in September…yeah I know, very late post. She wanted to do a little 80′s and a marionette-like shoot plus a soft beach look. The boots with the Quince dress were incredibly fun. I love playing with hard...

Catch me if you can • Children photographer miami south florida

We had rescheduled countless times, but finally got a gorgeous day for Kalia’s 2nd birthday session a couple of weeks ago. The terrible 2′s were alive and well here. She did not sit still for longer than 10 seconds, IF that much. I was able to catch her in a few split seconds of stillness...

Baby Giuliano • Baby Photographer Miami

It was time for Giuliano’s 9 month session and, although he’s usually all smiles, he was not ready for his close-up this time around. I did get to sneak in a few shots of smiles in-between the pouts. Can’t wait to photography him walking, hopefully he’ll like sand… Enjoy! ♥ Vanessa

Fabulous Friend • Portrait Photographer Miami

It was 1985 when I first met Sandra. We were in Junior High School together (or middle school as it is called now). Having just arrived from Panama, I barely spoke English but that was no deterrent for Sandra who was, and still is, the type that helps those in need and is open to...
