Baby Mason's Newborn Session

Congratulations to the newest member of the Ross Family.....Mason, 6lbs of pure heaven with the sweetest blue eyes that could melt any mother's heart melt (especially mine)!  Back in November, I had a maternity session with the mother-to-be Ashley as she welcomed me back into her home for Mason's newborn session. The little peanut was born in late January and was less than 2 weeks old when I held him in my hands.  Rocking him in my arms gave me so many memories of my 2 yr old when he was first born....such a nostalgic feeling.  Enjoy your little bundle of love; having a child is an indescribable feeling.  Congratulations again....

Callie's 3 month old Portrait Session

Say hello to sweet "Callie".....my 1st photo session of 2011 and most memorable to say the least. Callie's parent's hired me to take photos of their 3 month old baby girl in their home in addition to taking a few family photos as well, but......I convinced them to participate just a little longer while I had the opportunity to take many "lifestyle" images - which is something I feel is incredibly important.  The family's home decor is of a "rustic and country type" feel with wooden chairs and benches including beautiful quilts which I was able to utilize.  Sweet Callie.....I'm speechless!!! She has amazing blue eyes that took my breath away; such a happy baby, the apple of both her parents eyes! Thank you to the "K" family for an unforgettable morning and I look forward to her 1 yr old photos at the end of the Fall season. Enjoy your precious love ......

Brad & Danielle's Engagement Session

Meet Brad and Danielle....my last photo shoot of 2010 and well worth the wait!!

The two lovebirds met a few years back while attending college at PBA in Palm Beach; Danielle, more than just beauty but also brains as she graduated with a Doctorate’s degree in Pharmacology and Brad with a Degree in Business. Brad romantically asked for Danielle’s hand in marriage on the island of Bahamas of this year and are planning a February 2011 wedding. Their engagement session consisted of 3 locations, beginning at a Minor League Baseball Stadium (as Brad grew up playing sports) and ending the evening on the beaches of Palm Beach while the sun set across the horizon. Brad and Danielle….both extremely passionate, exhibited romance throughout the day and were sooo much fun to work with!! I’m looking forward to shooting my first wedding of 2011 in Palm Beach as this will be my 1st wedding in South Florida!

Baby Gianna

Please welcome Baby Gianna Alyse, born 11.03.2010 @ 7lbs,50z; proud parents to Jen & Kesone! The new parents had welcomed me back to Palm Beach since last visiting them in August for their maternity session.  At 1 month old, Gianna has her Mother's lips and Father's taste for Hip Hop music as we jammed out during her photo session; they both agree that having a child is like "a love like no other".  Like most newborns, Gianna was awake for about 1 hour so I was able to take photos of her sweet brown eyes.  As she gently fell asleep in her Mother's arms, I had the opportunity to snap away! Afterwards, I took a few pics of the nursery.....the decor is very modern and chic with bright colors of purple, 2 shades of pink and gray with white butterflies attached to the wall; without a doubt, Gianna will never have to worry about not being a "trendsetter" especially with her Mother's impeccable taste in fashion. Congratulations to Jen & Kesone on your greatest love!!!

The Scaglione Wedding

Tara and Michael said "I do" in the presence of their family and closest friends at the Tides Club in Satellite Beach on October 16th, 2010. Coldplay was the tune of the day as they were introduced as husband and wife and loved every second of it (as I did too).  Tara and Michael had left no detail untouched when planning the decor of the reception venue with the assistance of KL Weddings & Events; the color scheme of blue and green provided an amazing ambiance throughout the reception venue including the coordinating candy bar. I'm am beyond thrilled to have been apart of the greatest chapter in their lives so far! I wish you both many years of bliss and congratulations to Mr. & Mrs. Michael Scaglione!!!!!

Ashley & Rick's Maternity Session

Ashley and Rick will be expecting their first child of early February 2011....and boy, oh boy....is Daddy more than excited to have his own football player!!! Ashley just entered her 7 month and without a doubt, was eye candy to my lens. They both wanted the "Chicago Bears" attire and how cute are they tossing the football back and forth??? So....whats with the ice cream and maternity book??? Well....as new moms to be....we take advantage of the midnight cravings whether its staring at the refrigerator door to indulging chocolate ice cream or reading maternity books whether it scares us or not, especially the epidural chapter! Thank you Ashley for giving in to my wacky ideas....I had a blast : +) Congratulations to you both on the upcoming arrival of your first child; he will melt your hearts!

The Lorenzatto Family

The Lorenzatto Family has yet graced me with opportunity to capture their annual family portraits......and my, my, my....has sweet Ava Grace blessed me with her captivating smile and "princess charm". The beginning of November in my lovely hometown of St Lucie had their first cold front....and yes, for us native South Floridians, 65 degrees is chilly but lovely enough for a Fall family photoshoot. Sweet Ava is now 3 yrs old and has grown so much from last fall 2009; an amazing and affectionate child she is!! My heart was gently touched as she held my hand throughout the park in addition to watching her tumble, skip and dance merrily! While Ava was being "Sweet Ava", I had a quick moment to take a few snaps of Mommy & Daddy....and WOW is all I can say! Kim, a long time friend  (I think she may have seen me running around in diapers as a toddler) def gave me a show with her stunning green eyes and long eyelashes as she posed effortlessly while she and Chris were in their "moment".  Thank you Lorenzatto Family for an amazing evening of fun, laughter and passion :+) Looking forward to next year as I can't wait to see what Ava has in store for me!!

Chrissy & Andy's Wedding

I was more than thrilled to have been apart of the 10.10.10 wedding craze, which was one of the most popular wedding dates of 2010!!! Chrissy and Andy declared their nuptials at the Community Church of Melbourne, which I must say is extremely quaint given the simplicity of the white traditional "A" frame architect and classic wooden interior. I met Chrissy at her hotel where she was getting "primped and pampered" for pre ceremony shots followed by the ceremony commencing. Unfortunately, Chrissy wasn't the only princess in attendance...their brown eyed daughter, Shelby watched Mommy and Daddy at the alter with such curiosity and happiness. Congratulations to Chrissy and Andy! Thank you for allowing me to be apart of your special day.

Brown eyed Laurel

During the month of October, I had the opportunity to attend my high school reunion in South Florida.  A classmate of mine whom traveled from Oregon to attend the reunion had ask me if I was interested in booking a session for her 4 month old daughter, Laurel; how could I decline her request???? Laurel, an amazing brown eyed beauty was quite the star of the morning as she gazed at me with her long eyelashes. During the shoot, Laurel needed her beauty rest which she gladly and willingly fell asleep in her mother's arm.....what a picture perfect opportunity to snap "Mommy & Me" photos. I was extremely grateful that I had the opportunity to capture the bond between a mother and child. Thank you Deanna & Laurel for an unforgettable photo shoot. Enjoy your love.....

Busy, busy, busy

Thank you all for being patient....I have a ton of work to display so stay tuned! Oh...and I've also added slideshows in addition to posting images...enjoy the show!
