This is a very dear couple to our family. I’ve known Jenny for about 12 years now since she was just a girl. We’ve seen her grow up and now we have seen her fall in love with Raul. Jenny has been following my work for years now and I am so honored to photograph this special time for her.

Jenny has always loved elegance and beauty. She wanted a sophisticated engagement session with a sense of fashion and drama and a touch of vintage. We chose Vizcaya Museum and Gardens in Miami for the “vintage glam” set.

After Vizcaya we went over to downtown Miami for a bit of night shooting. I like shooting at night because it lets me play with lights and add drama to the images.

Thank you Jenny and Raul. I can’t wait for your wedding next month!!!

Samantha and Marc are getting married in South Florida where I will be photographing their wedding next year but they really wanted their engagement pictures to be done in Orlando. Leu Gardens is a gorgeous park with giant oak trees and rose gardens in the heart of Orlando. Leu Gardens has always been a special place for Samantha and Marc to go on dates and picnincs and so it had special meaning to them that they wanted photographed. Marc had planned to propose to Samantha at the gardens but it started raining that day and a change of plans was in order. They figured doing the pictures there would be the next best thing.

After the gardens I wanted to take some more urban style pictures for them so we went about a mile down the road to a cute street setting.

Meagan and Dennis wanted a fun engagement photography session that involved miniature golf and their dog, Mieko.  What would be more fun than taking your engagement pictures at an indoor arcade and put put golf range?

First off, can I just say… how styling is this couple? Don’t they look awesome? Marisa and Daniel live in Michigan so they wanted pictures at a location that was nothing like back home. They chose the historic Vizcaya for the many photography opportunities and gorgeous setting it offers. Marisa found me through their wedding coordinator Anna Noriega from Alore Events.

After Vizcaya we hopped on over to Key Biscayne for some quick but awesome beach portraits. As I was scouting the water I gave Daniel my camera for him to keep safe and he stole this rare picture of me behind the scenes. Nice job Daniel!

My assistant, Robert, took this nice picture of me with the happy couple. I need to put this on the studio wall!

Marisa and Daniel, I had so much fun with you guys! Can’t wait for the big wedding next year!

Because Melissa and Marin live out of state, I didn’t have a chance to meet them until 5 minutes before the shoot, but I knew right away I liked them a lot! This couple found me through their wedding planner Melissa Caceres from, Luxurious Event We had a blast walking around the streets of Miami’s Design District taking pictures for their engagement session. These are a few of my favorites.

Melissa and Marin, thank you for being so easy to photograph! I look forward to seeing you again soon.

Take a good look at these two.  Their kids are going to have the most amazing smiles!  They are infectious! Natalie said that she fell in love with Sheph because of his smile and she’s got a great one of her own.  I can’t wait for this wedding!
