So my sister had her fabulous Easter brunch last Sunday.  As usual, the backyard was beautifully decorated, the weather couldn’t have been nicer, and we had a great afternoon enjoying nice music (courtesy of my hubby), great food, mimosas, and much more, but as usual, the most delightful thing of all was the opportunity to spend some time among family and dear friends.  The party was a success and my son, Chris and I were there to record it with our photographs.  Please enjoy the slideshow I’ve created with some of the photos.

The photos for our Christmas cards this year were taken by my very talented son, Chris.  You can check out his work at www.mangosandpeaches.com  We went to New York with the family over the Thanksgiving weekend and had an unforgettable time.  The highlight of the trip for me was walking the Brooklyn Bridge.  This bridge is not only a historical monument, but an example of architectural genius and incredible work of art.  Needless to say between Chris and myself we took a ton of photos.  We chose these two as favorites for our Christmas cards.  I want to wish all my family and friends who follow my blog a very Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year.  We will be spending our Christmas at home with all our family around us (all 40 of them, LOL).  I can’t think of anything better than that.  “Feliz Navidad.”

The only green tree around, but what a beauty!!!

On this Valentine’s Day, I dedicate this post on my blog to two of my favorite couples.  Annette and Francisco and Lily and Felix.  These two couples represent the essence of true love, dedication, respect, and good example to all those who are lucky to know them.  Francisco and Felix, two very handsome guys, married two of the most beautiful and wonderful young ladies I know.  It is an inspiration to see them as they build their lives together as husbands and wives and in spite of their very busy professional schedules it never ceases to amaze me how they manage to find time not only for each other, but for their family as well.  I am proud to be part of their lives and I have created these romantic slideshows as my present to them and to all my blog fans on Valentine’s Day.  These are some of the photos I took during their engagement sessions.  I hope you enjoy them.  Happy Valentine’s Day to all.

Let there be love. 

Here’s to family, friends, good health, peace and love.  Many blessings and a Happy 2009 to all!!!

This post is dedicated to wishing my family, friends and clients a very Merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous 2009.  May God bless you and yours and grant you health and peace in your heart.  I hope you get a lot of cool presents too!!! LOL.  I leave you with a portrait of my family which was recently captured by Melissa from http://simplycaptivating.com/ Thank you Melissa, we love it!!!!   

See you all next year!!!

I took Michelle & Damian’s pictures back in November, but could not post them because they were in the process of choosing their favorites for their Christmas cards.  Now that they have mailed the cards out to their family and friends, I got the “go ahead” to post.  We went to Merrick Park Mall in Coral Gables on a beautiful morning and had a fun photo session.  Cocco, their dog was very well behaved.  I think he has gotten used to my camera lens and kind of likes it by now, it was either that or all the doggie treats I kept in my jean pockets, either way, we got some nice shots.  Here are a few. 

Happy Holidays!!!!

Hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday.  We’re off to Disney to celebrate with Mickey. 

Just a note to wish all the mothers in my life a very Happy Mother’s Day.  That goes for my beautiful mother, Yeya, my sister Ana, all my aunts, cousins and friends.  I am thankful to have such wonderful women around me who inspire and give me strength.  Here’s a photo we took on Friday while at the “Biltmore’s Afternoon Tea” which was my niece Annette’s mother’s day present.  We enjoyed it very much.  Thanks Annette!!!

Happy Mother’s Day

Well, it’s now the week before Christmas and as busy as we all are, I want to take a moment to post my heartfelt message of peace, faith, good health, and most important of all love to all my family, friends and clients.  I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous 2008.  I am posting the Christmas photo we shared with our friends and family this year.  This photograph of my family was recently captured during my niece’s wedding by my friend and wonderful photographer, Bob Quesada. 

Wow, so much to do and so little time.  This past weekend I had the pleasure of taking five families’ Christmas portraits.  They are all wonderful families with adorable children and especially two brand new beautiful babies, Mikaela and Sam.  I loved them all!!!!  I will blog just a few pictures of each of them, but you can check out their complete albums by clicking on the “LolyPix Galleries” section of the website.  Here they are posted in the order I took them.
