Kim Kevin, Chloe, Caitlyn, and XX or XY Gender Reveal

This mom saw the gender reveal photos I had taken for a friend, and contacted me to make the arrangements.  I of course, was so excited, as this is one of my favorite milestones to photograph.  Permission was given for Kim’s doctor’s office to release the results to me, and mom explained that she was really hoping for a boy for her two daughters.  She also expressed doubts that it was possible she was carrying a boy, so when her office told me the gender, I got goosebumps, and made them double check!  Mom’s surprise and excitement is so genuine; it was a truly special morning to be able to capture these moments for them.  If we had a video too, you would hear Kim saying, “I still can’t believe it’s blue!”

Ethan and Sabrina

I’ve driven by this location every day for about 3 years of my life, but never stopped to walk around.  When this mom called me to schedule a session to capture some updated modeling headshots for her kids, this location came to mind.  I stopped by the day before to explore, and knew immediately that it would be perfect for our session.  Mom was in charge of styling, and she did a great job!  She went through the kids’ wardrobes and selected outfits that blended well with each other, and even knew which ones to put on for the various backgrounds we were to be shooting with, and re-styled Sabrina’s hair too.  She did so well, I may have to call on her for future session styling!  And Ethan and Sabrina were a pleasure to work with!  Ethan and Sabrina accepted my gentle guidance in front of the camera, while making it their own and letting their personalities shine through.  I really couldn’t have asked for a better session, and the results speak for themselves!

Lisa & Matt’s Rehearsal Dinner

Lisa and Matt tied the knot last weekend preceded by an intimate dinner with close family and friends.  The bridal party toasted this couple of many nicknames with stories invoking laughter and tears from the guests.  After dinner, they braved the wind on the rooftop for a cocktail hour joined by a larger crowd of family and friends.  What a warm and welcoming start to their wedding weekend!

Stacie’s Bridal Shower

Last weekend, Stacie celebrated her bridal shower with a lovely brunch at GG’s Waterfront Bar and Grill on the Intracoastal in Hollywood, FL.  They had a great time showering this bride to be with love and friendship, and played some of the most creative shower games I’ve been privy to!  They played hot potato with a banana, played a “multi-tasking wife” game which involved putting on pantyhose while wearing potholders, and had a race involving baseball bats and balloons.  The decorations were DIY by the bride to be, and I think she did a fabulous job!  I wish the bride only the best at her upcoming wedding, and a lifetime of happiness with her groom!
