Justine and Alexis Wedding!!!

Justine’s wedding was an event that I have been looking forward to for a very long time. Her and I have become friends during the time she has been planning her wedding. She has such an amazing personality, full of life and love. Her attention to detail was one of the reasons I also looked forward to the event. Alexis, you have married an amazing person.

Justine enjoyed her wedding planning so much; she has become a wedding planner herself. She will be helping other brides with all their details and making sure that everything goes smoothly the day of their wedding.

I also took a photo of make up artist extraordinaire Lutz working his magic. Many of my clients have used him and they always look absolutely gorgeous and Yes! His makeup even lasts after our beach sessions.

Favio and I had a blast sharing with both of you on your wedding day. Can I call you Mrs. R? Lol.
Enjoy the teasers!!!

Victoria and Irwin Engagement Session

I love this couple!!! Victoria contacted me a couple of months ago to hire me after seeing one of my latest engagement sessions. They drove down from central Florida for their shoot and they were both ready to have some fun and an awesome time. The weather was amazing and we were lucky enough to have some really nice waves at the beach.

Thank you guys for making the trip down from Orlando, I had a blast shooting your session; specially the dirty-dancing move in the water.

If you are considering a session such as engagement or boudoir and don't live in South Florida; I am available for travel nationwide ;)

Jeannine’s Bridal Shower Slideshow

Here is Jeannine’s slideshow and follow up from her party last month. I had her images ready but was going back and forth with the song selected for the slideshow and trying to make it work with the program. Unfortunately the file didn’t work and I had to pick a song of my own. I hope you like it, it is one of my favorites.

Enjoy the slideshow Jeannine!!!

Brigitte and Mario's Wedding!!!

There is so much to say about this small and emotional wedding, but in the end to say that Mario and Brigitte are husband and wife was the most important highlight of the night.
I know Brigitte has wanted to celebrate her union with Mario in an intimate setting and they both decided to have a small wedding at Perricone’s joined by family and close friends.
Brigitte and I have become very good friends in the process of her planning her wedding and I couldn’t be happier for both of them.

Together with their beautiful three year old (princess) daughter Gaby; this family will always have what Gaby would say a ‘happily ever after’ life.
Enjoy!!!

Christina + Sergio's Engagement Slideshow!!!

Yesterday night I sent Christina an email to let her know her slideshow would be ready this morning. She replied to me with the ‘AAAHHHHH!!!!’ excitement waiting to see the slideshow.
I asked Christina to send me one of her favorite songs and she could not have picked a better one. I LOVE IT!!!
I hope you enjoy the slideshow with some of my favorite photos from their engagement session.

Christina and Sergio you rocked it!!!!

Jessi and Frankie's Wedding!!!

Congratulations Jessi and Frankie!!!!
I was so happy when Jessi and Frankie asked me to be their 2nd shooter at their wedding.
It seems like it was yesterday when I took their engagement session and Jessi’s bridal shower. I could not be more thrilled to share with them their wedding day.
Their package with the reception place included a photographer, but Jessi and I have become really good friends in the process of them planning their wedding, so they asked me to be their personal photographer.
Thank you Jessi and Frankie for thinking about me and sharing your amazing wedding day. Everything came out beautifully and you both made a stunning bride and groom.
Love you both!!!

Photographik

Advertising for photographers is something we build through word of mouth referrals when we go beyond our clients expectations with every session. I have made clients friends for life and will continue to capture their families portraits for years to come.

Once in a while we stumble upon websites that truly embrace the art of photography and celebrate the best in wedding and portrait photography. I submitted my work for consideration to photographik.org which grants membership only to photographers that excel in their field of photography and I'm happy to say that I was accepted and now a member of their site. I'm very happy to share these news and encourage brides to visit their site.

Happy Halloween Everyone!!!

Yesterday, I took some time off and went to a pumpkin patch. I got a beautiful medium-size pumpkin and at night I started carving it while watching Heroes which I had Tivo. Yes, I hate comercials.
Well, I’m happy to say that for the first time I have finished carving a pumpkin! Lol. I had a great time doing this and making a mess on my breakfast table. A big Thank you to Favio for helping me draw the hands around the Studio by Carmen logo.
It also gave me the idea to make carved pumpkins one of next year’s contests.
Have a safe and Happy Halloween!!!
If you’re in South Florida be careful with the wind and rain.
