Lourdes & Omar

Rusty Pelican Daytime wedding...
Beautiful wedding. I love sun light & the ocean. I loved the outfits the guys and Omar had on. Lourdes and Omar danced like crazy.
Because the wedding was early in the day they opted for an out of this world brunch buffet. It was awesome!
I wanted to also talk about Lourdes and Omar's wedding guests and family members they were all sooo sweet. We had such a nice time there. After the wedding as the video crew was packing up their stuff (Javi & our assistant Juan) I jumped in the car with Lourdes and Omar and we were able to sneak in a few shots by the water.

Sofia

I was soo happy to finally meet Sofia. See Sofia's baby photos were a gift from her Mommy's friends as a baby shower present. So needless to say I have waited to finally photograph this beautiful girl, from what I was told. But the truth was she was more than just beautiful, she was so funny, had so much personality and a pleasure to document. Her big eyes will captivate you. Here are some of my favorites. Her mom is an artist , she does beautiful children's murals: http://www.muralswithlove.blogspot.com/
and owner of her own line of children's accessories,

Melissa & Marc's Glamorous Engagements!

Melissa is a wedding planner and owns her own Glamorous business: EventsOnaBudget.com
I had the pleasure of shooting their engagement session last week.
First of all I have to say that Melissa & Marc hold a very dear place in my heart. (happy tears)
I actually photographed them getting engaged May 6th of last year when Marc popped the question. My goodness time has flown. It feels like if it was yesterday.
We had a great time at the engagement photo session.
We spent the afternoon on Brickell and then headed to the beach at Virginia Key beach.

Here is what Melissa wrote about her engagement session on her BLOG :
EventsonaBudget.Blogspot.com

"It's a Glamorous Life!", That is what I told Melissa (http://www.simplycaptivating.com/) I wanted my engagement pictures to feel like! I wanted something chic, urban and Glamorous! She totally captured my vision. When we first got engaged I had mentioned I didn't want engagement pictures but now I am SUPER happy I changed my mind. I did do the traditional beach shots, just for good ol' time sake :0) What can I say about my pictures.. I SUPER DUPER LOVE THEM! Thanks Mel!

p.s. Did I tell you http://www.simplycaptivating.com/ was voted 2008 THE KNOT Best of Weddings for Photography! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
