How stunning is this glowing mom?! We were lucky to have the beach all to ourselves on this gorgeous but hot summer day and the gallery is beautiful. We had so much fun with soon to be big sister, she was a little model. It's not easy to pose during the crazy summer heat in Florida specially while you're expecting but what helps is shooting near the water, it was breezy with waves and perfect wind for our gowns. I'm sure this family will cherish the memories we captured here.
This little beauty is 2 months old and we decided that family session would work best for this age but the goal was to also get some posed/newborn photos if baby was up to it. The reason why a 2 month old would not do well with full newborn session is because they simply grow out of the stage when they are sleepy all the time. When we started the session it looked like baby was ready for a nap so we swaddled her and ended up using all the set ups I brought! She did so well sleeping through posed part and I love her gallery! At the end, when I unswaddled her she was rested and happy so we got a gorgeous smile!
We recently made a decision to bring our newborn studio to clients for convenience and for variety. I've always loved setting up for newborn shoots but something was always missing in the studio for me. When it comes to family portraits my style is natural and unposed, this was hard to achieve in studio and is much easier in the comfort of client's home. The minute I walked into this house, I realized how cool this family was, I'm not joking the decor was amazing. Gorgeous family and beautiful home!
How adorable is this little boy?! I had so much fun doing his newborn session! He slept the whole time and only got a little upset when we had to change him into one of my outfits. Neutrals are so great for baby photography, once you turn a photo into big print or canvas these colors will look great with any decor. All of our newborn shoots are now done at clients home so you don't have to leave the house. We did sibling portraits and I loved the matching outfits! Beautiful family and we are so lucky they chose us to capture this important milestone!
Another family that we adore from IL was on vacation and we had the pleasure of doing their family photo shoot! This is our 4th session with this beautiful family and we love working with them, seeing their little one growing up in front of the camera, time flies and she is such a sweet little girl. The weather was honestly crazy that day, we had to reschedule last minute to try and avoid the rain and it's been raining for weeks. We got so lucky and it started raining right when we were done with pictures! Mom did amazing job with outfits and just look at her dress, I mean wow she looks amazing! Love the memories with captured!
I'm a big lover of candid moments and we got a lot of those for this gorgeous family! It's been raining non stop in South Florida and the session was moved indoors. I'm so lucky that this family chose us for the third time to capture their life, love and adorable Charlotte. Love seeing the baby with her great grandmas, grandparents and uncles. She was all smiles for us specially when it was time for her to be the star in front of camera all by herself. I really can't believe how fast time flies and what a difference from newborn photo shoot. Love watching babies grow and capture their milestones.
Who doesn't love family vacations?! Making memories with your children while they're so little and to remember these moments it's even better to capture them! This family hired us while on vacation at Boca Raton. When I first started this amazing journey my goal was to capture children looking right at me and as years went by I realized that my views have changed. The best photos are the once where you see the personality, life and happiness, I can see all of those things and more on these photos!
This is an example of our lifestyle newborn session but now we also bring the studio to you! We have made this transition because our clients felt more comfortable at home with babies under 2 weeks old. I think it's so meaningful to capture family in their home in this case with their pets. The doggies were very curious and followed us around, apparently their favorite room is the nursery, probably because they assume it was all done for them lol I know this well because all of our 6 pets seem to think all the new items like furniture, bed sheets etc is all for them, they get so excited and are the first to test things out. Also did you know that after many years in business most newborn photographers are really just baby whisperers and get babysitting job offers all the time ;) I had to mention that because I always get audience around me, watching me work, wondering how is the baby sleeping through all the posing and asking if I can also babysit haha
Do you have a pet you love? Please hire us for family photo shoot :) Why us? Because we are obsessed with dogs, cats and will love all your pets. Just like working with adorable babies, pets are joy and we love to spend time with your furry child. This sessions was amazing, the doggy is gorgeous, sweet, I got so many kisses and smiles, just look! So lucky this beautiful family chose us! Courtney's make up and hair was done by very talented April South (facesbyapril) my clients have been so happy with her services and you can see why. I need more families with pets, that is all.
Another gorgeous soon to be family of 4 met us at Red Reef beach to do family pictures on a gorgeous day. It was sunny and very windy which makes for great ocean view, with huge waves and lots of seaweed. I love shooting at this location because we always start with golden light trees view and move on to sand with water, variety for clients and a great place to spend time. I had so much fun with the princess, little one was full of personality and loved the camera, in fact she was sad to leave. Love these photos!
This adorable, 5 month old baby boy was visiting his grandparents in Florida and we got to capture the memories! It's such a cute milestone, it was a busy spring break kind of day, a lot of noise, people walking by and we still got so many smiles. Weather was perfect, baby was happy and pictures are priceless. My favorite once are the kisses to mommy, he loves her so much just look at that excitement. We even had a chance to get some photos in their condo that has the most stunning decor all original from baby's great grandmother.
How amazing are these vacation photos, so many fun moments, so happy my clients hired us to capture them at the beach! I was even more excited to see clients from IL and the last time we did a shoot for them was maternity session. Weather wasn't the best that day, forecast showed rain so we rescheduled for noon, it was windy, cloudy, not warm but you can't tell because we had fun. Can you tell how candid moments are my favorite kinds? I don't mind 1,2,3 look at the camera if clients request but my goal is to capture memories you will look back at one day with a big smile, where your family is doing what they do best, being themselves. I was also in love with that colorful background that was on the building next door and pool area had the perfect view of it.
I'm so in love with this gallery, this cutie slept the whole time and the session went by fast. She arrived earlier than expected and I didn't even get a chance to blog this family's maternity, which was done at Red Reef Beach in Boca Raton, her mommy was absolutely stunning! We loved working with this family and can't wait to see them again in the future. Thank you for choosing us and letting me do my thing with prop choices, she was a dream model and I had so much fun capturing these important events in your life.
Mark and I came by to capture this family in their home, it was adorable watching big sisters so happy and proud. Pictures of the girls with baby melts my heart. It wasn't an easy journey specially for mom but it's always worth it and most importantly everyone is healthy! This is what lifestyle sessions look like through my lens, gorgeous family!
Gorgeous mom and adorable baby were in our studio for newborn pictures, how cute are these?! Also who doesn't love dog with baby photos, it's my favorite! Sophie is a very smart big sister, she posed like a model because we had cheese lol This little guy got a lot of awake shots which is awesome. Love the colors parents chose and that newborn smile is priceless.
This gorgeous and sweet family booked us for newborn and maternity session. It was such pleasure working with them. Maternity session was done at the beach and the weather was challenging that day but the photos turned out beautiful. This time we met at our in home studio for a cozy newborn photo shoot full of parent's favorite colors and the baby did amazing job sleeping through all the posing and set ups. I was able to use all the props I planned and this gallery is adorable. Older sister posed like a little model for sibling shots. You can see love in the moments we captured here.
I still can't believe that it's December and I'm working outside, not just outdoors but at the beach, my absolute favorite place to be ;) So glad many of my clients want beach sessions, Mark and I feel like we are just out having fun, not even going to call it work. It's been a very busy month, meeting new people and just look at my adorable clients. This session was so much fun, super photogenic family and very sweet. Love their outfits! Weather was perfection, baby was all about playing in the sand, Mark had to fall in water few times to get older brother to smile which was probably a pretty good show for everyone. Love how we captured this beautiful family!
This tiny cutie was in our studio not long after we did maternity shoot. I had so much fun posing him, he was so sleepy and cozy in all the props. I'm so thankful for having a job where I get to hold babies, watch them eat cake for the first time or photograph moments that will mean so much to families in the future. We have been so busy shooting, editing and planning fun sessions but very behind on blogging and sharing. Stay tuned because we have a lot of new photo shoots to show off!
This gorgeous family booked us for maternity and newborn session! They wanted my favorite outdoor location, beach of course :) The weather was amazing that day but it was also windy which was a huge plus for the gown Jennifer picked out! My assistant aka husband MZmoda didn't even have to throw the gown, wind took care of everything, end results are perfect, dreamy beach maternity. Baby is already here too and I can't wait to meet him!
The best way to capture personality, love and just life is to photograph candid moments! I always try to get a few posed, everyone look a the camera shots but the rest is go go go, specially with kids. This beautiful family recently moved to FL to enjoy beach and sunshine! Don't think I'll ever get bored of shooting at the beach, such a gorgeous background and kids have so much fun! Also how adorable is the doggy, love it when families bring their pets to shoot.
