Simon & Ariel | South Florida Family Photographer

It seems that Downtown Hollywood is coming alive in recent weeks, and is only continuing to grow.  I have lots of new spots to shoot at that are around my new studio which is located inside Gallery 2014.

Simon and Ariel were some of my first clients that I got to shoot around the new space.  I love the way this adorable brother and sister truly love eachother.

See you soon,

Daniela, Alex & Arianna | South Florida Family Photographer

This family is getting ready for some big changes in the upcoming weeks.  It was very special to be able to capture big sister with her younger brother and sister.  Myself being the oldest (significantly) of four, I understand and appreciate the bond between these three siblings.  We explored some areas of downtown Dania Beach, which I’ve never photographed before.   Definitely some great new spots.

See you soon,

Stylin… | South Florida Family Photographer

So you’ve decided that you’re going to commission a portrait artist to create amazing, one of a kind art to hang in your home and cherish forever.  You’ve chosen the photographer who’s style matches your own (hopefully me) and you’re ready to make the investment.  Once all these decisions are made and we’ve confirmed a location and date, I often have clients ask, “What should I wear?”  Second to choosing a photographer who you really connect with, wardrobe is definitely the next biggest decision.  It’s a major decision!  Clothes make the man, and it can make or break your portrait session.  I am so excited to share with you an amazing fashion stylist who will work with you to make sure that your entire family looks fabulous for your custom portrait session.  I have been working personally with Ashley Scharf for years.  Her own twins are my muses and working with her always gets my creative juices flowing.  She does it all.  Whether it’s just going through your family’s closets and putting together ensembles based on what you already own, going shopping with you or on her own, I guarantee that you’ll look back on your portraits with such pride.  Ashley will create a look for your family that is fashionable, cohesive and timeless.  Shoot her an email for more information ashleyscharf@aol.com.

Ashley worked with this mom of three amazingly handsome boys to create looks that not only fit the lifestyle of the family, but fit in with the location that we choose as well.

See you soon,

Theo | South Florida Family Photographer

I just got back from a weekend in Atlanta where I attended the Professional Photographers of America (PPA)’s yearly professional convention “Imaging USA.”  It was lots of fun and extremely informative.  I’m eager to implement all that was learned in this still new year.

Although I have to say the highlight of my trip was meeting Theo and him mom for a lifestyle session in their neighborhood of Candler Park. This little guy stole my heart.  I hope to make it up that way and see them both again soon.

See you soon,
