Today is Juneteenth, a day I take time to sit with rather than celebrate loudly.

Freedom should never have been something that had to be announced. And yet on June 19, 1865, enslaved people in Texas finally learned what had already been declared more than two years before. The delay itself tells the story.

I think about that as a business owner who benefits from privileges I did not earn. I think about what it means to build something that is truly open to everyone, not as a statement but as a practice.

Whether you are Black, brown, white, LGBTQ+, or anything in between, you belong here. That is not something I say once a year. It is something I try to live in the way I work, the clients I serve, and the stories I choose to honor.

Today I am listening, learning, and grateful for the reminder that freedom is still a work in progress.

This is a photo of my grandmother that my Aunt/godmother recently shared. My grandma never knew me. I never knew her. But because of that one image I know her smile, I know her presence, I know something true about where I came from.

My grandma did not plan a session. She did not pick an outfit or worry about the light. Someone just captured her and because they did, she is still here in a way that words never could have made possible.

That photograph is her legacy. It is proof that she existed, that she mattered, that her life was real and full and worth remembering. And even though my mom was too young to remember her mom, her mom still lives on.

That is what I think about every single time I pick up my camera.

My clients are not just booking a photo session. They are creating the image that their daughter pulls out of a box thirty years from now. The one their grandchildren study trying to understand where they came from. The one that makes someone who never met them feel like they already know them.

I take that seriously. Every single time.
If you have been putting off booking because life is busy or the timing is not perfect, I want you to know that the timing will never be perfect. But the photos will be. And they will outlive everything. Let's capture these moments now.

Happy Easter and a very special Happy Easter Bunny day to all those who attended last Sunday's special WOW event!

It was a lot of fun. I hope everyone got lots of eggs and had a blast!

What a day at the Westchase Community Egg Hunt yesterday!

Yesterday, we had the absolute honor of capturing families with a very special guest, the Easter Bunny. But the surprise of the afternoon was a visit from King Ripple, the beloved mascot of the Tampa Tarpons! Seeing these two iconic characters together was a moment no one saw coming.

We made sure every family who stopped by our photo booth walked away with a memory to last a lifetime.

A professional 4x6 photo print was produced on-site, and packages are still available if you didn't get a chance to upgrade yesterday. Reply to this post or visit the link below to order yours before they're gone.

A very special thanks to Rodrigo of The Love Portfolio for helping with the prints! Also, thank you to the Westchase community, volunteers, WOW Magazine, and everyone who made this event so special. Hope to see you next year!

It's a little belated, but Happy 10th Anniversary to this very special couple! Happy Anniversary, Danika & Garin! Cheers to a lifetime more anniversaries!

This wedding at Kapok Special Events was right out of a fairytale and looked like a Tale as Old as Time.

"Thanks for the beautiful photos of our family. Wishing you an amazing and prosperous New Year."

Receiving heartfelt messages like this, especially when they include family photos with their beloved pets, is exactly why I do what I do. These aren't just pictures. They're family legacy.

As we have now welcomed 2026, I'm filled with gratitude and excitement for what’s ahead — the families I’ll meet, the weddings I’ll document, and the four-legged best friends I’ll get to photograph along the way.

Whether you're:
• Planning an intimate wedding
• Looking to preserve memories with your dog
• Hoping to freeze-frame this season of family life
• Or more

I'm here for it with storytelling, emotion, and intention behind every click.

Now booking for 2026. Limited dates available for:
• Furever in Love dog & family sessions (booking details announcing next week)
• Engagements & weddings
• Seasonal heirloom portrait sessions

Let’s make this your year to be in the photos.

When Yadira reached out for a holiday limited-edition family session, we were all hoping for one of Tampa’s signature sunsets. But the weather had other plans… or so we thought.
That morning, rain clouds hovered and made everyone (understandably!) nervous. Still, I checked the radar, trusted my photographer’s intuition, and we held our ground. I'm so glad we did.

Cypress Point Park was calm, beautiful, and gave us a perfect canvas to create something memorable — even if the dramatic sky colors didn’t fully peek through. Their sweet pup Oreo was an absolute dream, and the whole family made this session one of my favorites of the season.

It’s moments like these that remind me why I love what I do: helping families hold on to joy, connection, and legacy — no matter what the sky looks like.

Thank you for supporting this dream!

This Small Business Saturday, I want to say how deeply thankful I am for every client, supporter, friend, and referral who’s helped grow.

Whether I’m capturing your family legacy through my lens or major milestones - birthdays, beach sunsets, baby snuggles, generational stories, weddings or more, it means the world to be trusted with your most meaningful moments and milestones.

PS: I’ll be offering a special Cyber Monday deal—one day only—so keep an eye out if you've been thinking about booking a session. (I only do this once a year!!!)

From my small business to your family or business—thank you from the bottom of my heart.

11/11/2025

Today, we pause to honor the service, sacrifice, and strength of our veterans.
To those who have served—and to the families who stood beside them—thank you. Your courage and commitment do not go unnoticed.
Forever grateful.
