It’s no lie that my son loves to geek out on some Star Wars. I’ve been meaning to use this in the studio for the longest time. After two days of being home with me because of strep throat, Owen finally agreed to a quick portrait session.

The studio’s most popular portrait option is the custom collage. With a choice of 9 or 16 images and starting at a size of 20×20, the custom collage is a fabulous way to have a statement of piece of portrait art without a huge wall space commitment.
The weather right now is PERFECT for a custom family portrait session. Mother’s Day is around the corner and portraits make fabulous gifts.
I want to send out a huge THANK YOU to whoever nominated me as a “KIDS CROWN NOMINEE” for Best Family Photographer in South Florida Parenting Magazine. Voting will start soon. Stay tuned for more details.
See you soon,

This portrait cracks me up. Didn’t make the collage, but definitely brings a smile to my face.
March 21 is World Down Syndrome Day. What is Down Syndrome? Most people have 23 pairs of chromosomes, people with Down syndrome have a third copy of the 21st chromosome. Which is why 3/21 is recognized as World Down Syndrome Day. This past Saturday was the third annual “I EXTRA Love You” portrait exhibit. This portrait project is a labor of love between myself and dear friend, Daniela Roeder. Daniela’s younger brother, Alex has Down Syndrome. This year it was important to both Daniela and I to showcase the special relationship/bond between siblings. Daniela, being very close to her brother and an advocate for him and all individuals with Down Syndrome really wanted to show the love that is there. Myself as the photographer was always so interested in watching the dynamic between siblings when they would come into the studio for the actual “I EXTRA Love You” portrait day. The sibling always seemed to stand in the shadow of the one with Down Syndrome. So it was really exciting when Daniela and I met to discuss this year’s event and we both wanted to add a new feature and photograph the sibling groups together.
On Saturday, 55 gorgeous individual portraits were on display at Gallery 2014, as well as 19 sibling portraits, as a part of Downtown Hollywood’s Art Walk celebrating World Down Syndrome Day.

A huge thank you to Gallery 2014 and the Gold Coast Down Syndrome Organization. Without your cooperation this portrait exhibit would not have been possible.
These two adorable sisters came to the studio for their custom portrait session. We had a great time, and their dresses are perfect colors for spring.
Appointments are available for portrait sessions this spring. Perfect for Mother’s Day.

Helen is graduating from high school and has some HUGE college plans and she came to the studio for her senior portraits. Senior year of high school is such a fun and exciting time in a young person’s life. Definitely worth capturing and treasuring forever. I’ll keep you updated on the final product.

It’s unfortunate that I don’t take the time to really photograph my own kids anymore. 9 years ago, when I first started my portrait business, I was obsessed with it. My youngest, she’s 4, never gives up an opportunity to tell me that she isn’t fairly represented in the house. And she’s right. So I should’ve taken her to the studio the other day, but instead, Stella and I stole away to the studio for a few hours on a Sunday. To photograph my daughter really opens up a creative side of me. It’s freeing. It’s creativity and collaboration at it’s finest between mother and daughter. Stella is my middle one. I think it’s easy for her to get lost between her older brother and crazy baby sister. She got to be the complete center of attention.
We’re going to print one on canvas for her room. Next, it’ll be Charlotte’s turn.
You can see more of Stella’s custom portrait session here.
We are currently booking custom family portrait sessions for October and November. The deadline for guaranteed holiday delivery is December 1.

Noah came to visit me for his 6 month portraits. He was actually closer to 7 months, but finally sitting unassisted. After the newborn portrait session I always advise my clients to wait till the babies are sitting without support. His super adorable, big brother Adam, couldn’t help but get in the action. And can you blame him? Both boys are super handsome. Mom and I are meeting next week to create and design their final portrait display. I’ll keep you updated on the final fine art portrait installation.
We are entering our busy fall season. If you haven’t scheduled your family portrait session, the time is now! I’m taking appointments for guaranteed holiday delivery from now until Thanksgiving, both at the Downtown Hollywood studio and at locations of your choice. I am closed to new clients starting December 1-January 8. As I will be running around like a chicken without a head getting all the holiday cards, portraits, framed prints and all the other studio goodies out to my patient clients.
There will be one last mini session offer between now and the end of the year and will be for ONE DAY ONLY. Stay tuned, as info will be released shortly.
Lots of information on the website is being updated. Check back often for the latest and greatest.
