Happy Birthday week to one of my favorite “Daughter of AyAy” muses 🎉😍👑🥂💥 I hope this rotation around the sun is one of your best yet ☀️🙌🏽
•
This series, and the in between portraits I captured, are some of my favorites, I have ever created 📸🙏🏽 The concept was birthed from the depths of my heart and soul ✨ Even though the majority of the files are lost now, due to my hard drive being corrupted and the originals not being backed up - so many lessons learned and tears shed during the grieving process - I am so grateful for this experience and the images that survived, and I can look back on now.
•
This is not the end of my “Daughters of AyAy” series 🇻🇮 but just the beginning, and I can’t wait to re-explore this concept when the time is right 👌🏽
•
Thank you for allowing me to capture your beauty, essence, and spirit so graciously! I am so grateful to have you in my life, as one of my muses and dear friends ♥️🌟😘

LOVE…is truly a beautiful thing to witness…
•
Jenna reached out to me about photographing her engagement photos during her first visit to St. Croix, with her fiancé Jake, whose family is from here. She didn’t want the typical beach photos, which I was secretly delighted about ☺️ and this gave me the opportunity to explore scouting some historic and green spaces. I had so much fun rediscovering locations that hadn’t been on my radar for some time.
•
She ultimately decided on the Whim Museum Greathouse grounds, and it was the first shoot I had ever done there. The lighting was absolutely perfect…the energy was incredible…and their sweet love for each other was undeniable…we truly created magic that day 🪄
•
THANK YOU .gautreau for trusting my vision and inspiring this magnificent vibe 🌿💍✨🫶🏽

These two were high school sweethearts, and their undeniable love for each other just melts my heart and feels predestined from another time and space 💫

This beautiful couple got married in Mexico 🇲🇽 last weekend and I had the pleasure of photographing their engagement session which was a “surprise” proposal 💍 at one of my favorite beach locations on St. Croix 🇻🇮 I will never forget this day ✨ and the things we did to pull this off successfully 🤩

Their love story is one for the books…they met at a dream wedding in Spain 🇪🇸😍 and their lives have never been the same!

It was such a pleasure to witness and capture their sweet and contagious love for each other 🥰

She moves with grace and sways with the wind, under the grand flamboyants in bloom.

The golden light illuminates her effervescent spirit within.

Her physical beauty…captivates, invokes and exudes…wonder, amazement and mystery.

This Crucian enchantress embodies the queens of the past, present and future.

She is bold, she is whole…she is magnificent to behold.

I’ve literally been working non-stop on this deadline and am so so proud of the results! I’ve rarely had time to engage on social media lately because I am always editing and sleep deprived lol, but I am so excited to share this news and celebrate this dream come true 💫
