Emily and Thomas Outdoor Themed Engagement Session
I‘m so excited to share Emily and Thomas super cute engagement session with you guys! I love when my couples get creative and really think their engagement session through by starting an inspiration board. The best way to start is by creating a Pinterest Board with Pins that reflect your personalities. If you love photography, maybe pin some Vintage cameras, or if you love to read, pin some books, library photos, reading glasses etc. These Pins will form a base for your engagement Theme, and lots of ideas will come out of them. Emily and Thomas wanted an outdoor themed Engagement session that represented their personalities and their relationship along with their love for the outdoors.
Emily happens to be super creative and brought some adorable props to our session including custom pillows, a pick-up truck for some snuggling pictures, a fishing boat, and their dog! Fun Moment of the day: We rushed to get on the fishing boat to catch the sunset on the lake and got pretty wet on our way there! The boat cruised at full speed to catch the last slivering of the sun as it set on the horizon. It was a warm and windy day, but the sky was blue with just a few passing clouds. It was really a blast and the pictures are just as fun and adorable. Hope you enjoy their sneak peek!

Diva and Kenny’s Mission Inn Resort Wedding
Where do I begin to describe Kenny and Diva’s beautiful Mission Inn Wedding?
First of all, Kenny and Diva are the nicest people that you will ever meet. Diva, is a petite, perky Red head, who is a Lawyer and loves Bar and Yoga (she is super fit), and Kenny is tall, handsome and soft-spoken and absolutely adores his gorgeous wife. Together, they are a match made in heaven. They meet at a College Bar called Knight’s library and Kenny popped the question after 4 years of dating during their first vacation together.
Their wedding theme was Romantic and Elegant with a hint of rustic. Mission Inn Resort is a great place for weddings because the venue has abundant greenery and florals decorating each space including the ceremony sites.
“I love Kenny’s sense of humor, his thoughtfulness, and his intuition,” Diva says about her now husband <3
We had an amazing team who worked tirelessly to make their wedding day perfect, including Wedding Planner Katie Jimenez of Big Day Celebrations.

Family portrait session in Kissimmee
You attract what you are- maybe that’s why around 70 percent of my clients are from up north or the New York / New Jersey area. I lived in New york for 12 years and moved down to Florida because I got tired of my very corporate job (think suit every day), and because of the increasingly cold and long winters! It amazes me how many New Yorkers are coming down to Florida to take advantage of the good weather here (well..I’m not THAT surprised actually). I was thrilled when Jonathan, from New York City and his family, booked me to photograph their Family portrait session in Kissimmee.
Jonathan and his siblings rented a vacation home in Kissimmee to celebrate their mothers birthday. They took an early morning break with me to capture some memories for their family to cherish forever. The rest of the days were spent bonding and going to all of the Disney Parks! I was blessed to be a part of it! Here are a few captures.

Vraja-Gopal and Gopi Kumari’s Indian Wedding Photography at ISKCON Temple
Vraja and Gopi celebrated their Vedic Wedding with a traditional Fire Yagna (Fire sacrifice) at the Beautiful ISKCON Alachua temple this weekend and we were there to capture the fun by photographing their wedding!
Vraja was a childhood friend of my husbands, so it was extra special to be able to photography his and Gopi’s wedding!
Vraja and Gopi had two weddings- They had a traditional western wedding (white gown and suit) last year and their formal religious wedding at the temple joined by close friends and family. The mandap was decorated beautifully with red and orange roses wich complimented their bright outfits and was a nice contrast to the abundant greenery. The temple is Situated on a tranquil, rural 127-acre property in Alachua and the mandap was placed in a rustic, outdoorsy area of the property surrounded by mature trees. Ragunath officiated the Yagna beautifully as he always does! It was nice to connect with some old friends and to make new ones. Favorite moment: Special appearance by Their spiritual Master HH Radhanath Swami!
Here is their sneak peek.
