Little Sophia!

ok... I have to start off by saying that Pia is the hardest baby I have ever photographed. She couldn't sit still! Really... I think she sat still for about 5 seconds... Sophia didn't want to be photographed and she definitely didn't want to picked up by her parents. All she wanted was to be left alone to walk/run as she pleased. Oh yeah... she did want her bunny. Sophia... thanks for making me run like a crazy woman. I hope you got to take a nap because I sure felt like I needed one!

Pia... This is how I felt at the end of the shoot! I'm sorry for making you feel CRAZY!

San Miguel... personal photos!

One of my favorite parts of being a photographer is the amazing places I get to go. I have been lucky enough to have been in Santa Fe and Brooklyn the last 2 months.
I wanted to share some of my personal photos from San Miguel de Allende... It's truly a magical place with lots of culture, amazing food and good people! I had already been there with my friend Ally over 10 years ago and we had a BLAST! Funny enough I found myself doing some of same things... having drinks at Mama Mia's... walking aimlessly through the market and listening to the mariachis in the square late at night.
This is how I saw it... bits and pieces of one of the most amazing cities in the world.

Michelle&Keith

I had an amazing time getting to know Michelle&Keith this afternoon... they reminded me why sports fans are COOL (I know I'm a lamo... not so big on the sports)! These 2 met at a Texans game and are BIG fans so we decided to get into the spirit and have some fun! Michelle was introduced to Keith by Kristyna... (that's another chain of wonderful events... click here to get the skinny). Thanks for being AWESOME I can't wait till the wedding. Keep each other smiling and lots of kissing... it's good for the soul!

Kady&Paul ~San Miguel de Allende!

I just got back from one of the most amazing weddings EVER! Well... it was more than just a wedding it was a 4 day extravaganza in San Miguel de Allende. Which happens to be one of the most beautiful towns in Mexico! I wanted to start this series of posts from this incredible wedding with a couple of shots from the Welcome dinner at Casa Encantada and the rehearsal dinner at Bugambilia. I'll probably say this million times but thanks to Gina&Tanya from Clink for making Kady&Paul's amazing vision so spectacular!
