I recently went to Perricone’s Market Place & Cafe to photograph Terri’s baby shower.  Terri and Neman are expecting a baby girl, and their family and friends are filled with excitement about the arrival of baby Alexis.  The theme for the shower was a “Tea Party,” and the entire place was decorated with white teapots and cups delightfully filled with delicate pink and pastel color flowers.  This group consisted of 90 ladies who enjoyed a wonderful lunch, fun games and delicious cupcakes, but the most enjoyable thing for me was to see Terri’s happiness as she dreams of her baby girl.  Please enjoy the slideshow I’ve put together with some of the photos from the shower.

This was a beautiful and fun baby shower at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Brickell Key.  Vanessa’s family knows how to throw a great party, and this was no exception.   As you can see from the photos, Baby Anthony will have the “Cuban flavor” in his blood from the get go.    The decorations were amazing, the cake was not only a work of art, but simply delicious and the guests enjoyed a beautiful afternoon with a great view of Biscayne Bay, a nice lunch, and fun games.  Congratulations to Vanessa and all those who love her on the arrival of the new addition to an already beautiful family.

I recently had the pleasure of photographing Lourdes and Jose’s baby shower at the Doral Park Country Club.  Lourdes is a teacher and a very talented and careful planner, so needless to say, her shower was perfect in every little detail.  Their theme was little green turtles and the feel of spring filled the entire room with refreshing colors of green, yellow and white.  Lourdes and Jose enjoyed a delicious lunch with their friends and family and had a great time sharing their many plans for their son, Austin’s birth.  I hear that Austin’s room is also decorated with little turtles and someone at the shower said that Austin is probably going to think he is a turtle when he opens his eyes and looks around his room.  I thought that was very funny.  I can’t wait to meet Austin and the first thing I am going to tell him is that he is a “very lucky little turtle.”  LOL.  I leave you with a slideshow I have created with some of the photos captured at the party.  Enjoy!!!

Laura, Alex and Bianca are very excited about the soon to be new addition to their beautiful family, baby boy Alejandro Jose.  A group of Laura’s family and friends recently gathered to honor Laura at her baby shower.  The shower was beautifully put together by Laura’s mom, Eloisa, and her best friend Rebecca.  It was a gorgeous spring afternoon and the group enjoyed a nice lunch as they wished the family many blessings.  Congratulations to all.

Tania and Nicole will be blessed this summer with the arrival of their son, Nicholas Paul, and I had the pleasure of photographing their baby shower at their beautiful home in Palmetto Bay. Nicole and Tania’s family and friends gathered to celebrate with them this happy occasion.  We all enjoyed a perfect afternoon with a delicious pasta station catered by “At your Service Catering,” refreshing drinks and many fun games.  I have known Nicole for many years, and I was pleased to see how happy she is.  Congratulations Tania, Nicole and to all those who love them and anxiously await Nicholas’ arrival.  I can’t wait to meet him myself.

As promised, here is the slideshow I created for Anita’s Baby Shower.  This baby shower was just so beautiful and sweet, literally, because Anita just cannot be any sweeter and her adoring family put together this candy-themed shower especially for her.  They had a custom built candy tower that just rocked.  The center pieces were colorful natural flower arrangements, and the cake was a work of art created by Ana Paz, www.anapazcakes.com which looked exactly like the shower invitation.  There was music, games, good food, sangria, cake and lots of candy to take home in cute pink boxes.  Everything was pink and fun.  Anita  happily awaits for the arrival of  her baby girl, knowing that Sofia will be loved by so many people.  Towards the end of the party, we all sat around and watched Anita and Anthony open tons of presents.  Sofia will have to wear a new outfit at least three times a day for her first year of life.  I had a great time at the shower and I can’t wait to meet Sofia.   Please enjoy the slideshow.

Jackie and Mau are a very special couple and they have been blessed with a baby boy on the way.  I am so happy I got to be a part of their baby shower.  This baby shower was different from all others I have been to and it was so much fun!!!  This couple is surrounded by a loving family and the coolest friends ever, who made sure everything at the shower was perfect.  The party was held at the club house of the Alaqua Condominium in Aventura.  The place was tastefully decorated with a chic baby stroller design theme in mint green, black and white.  I have never seen more animated participation by all the guests in the games that were played, especially the guys.  It was a blast!!!  I leave you with a slideshow and some favorite images from the party.  Congratulations Jackie and Mau.  I hope I get to be around you guys again when the baby arrives. 

I chose Mau’s favorite song for the slideshow. 

“Mau I hope this slideshow makes you very happy”

I went to Mariposa Restaurant which is located on the third floor of Neiman Marcus at the Village of Merrick Park in Coral Gables to photograph Rebecca’s baby shower.  The gathering was tastefully put together by Rebecca’s mom.  The menu was appetizing, the mimosas very refreshing and the decorations were beautiful with lots of delicate pink in them because this time around Rebecca is having a girl!!!  Congratulations to the family on this happy occasion.

Butterflies everywhere

pretty pink flowers

Rebecca opened some of the presents

and the party favors were a hit!!!

Some of my clients have expressed an interest in the crochet party favors that they have seen in some of my photographs.  For those who may be interested, I am posting some samples of the beautiful things “Tata” makes.  You can place your order through me (Tata is a little shy), and I will be happy to help.  The crochet creations are hand made and very unique, no two are ever alike.  I can tell you they are made with much love by a person who is just an angel from heaven.  She’s my aunt and I am so proud of her!!!  Here are a few photos of her beautiful work. 

Crochet hats for showers

Your guests will love them!!

Little princess shoes hold mints or potpourri and are great for quinces, birthdays and showers

She also makes beautiful crosses which are great for First Communions and Christenings and little baby strollers which are great for baby showers.  I don’t have photos of the crosses or strollers to post at the moment, but as soon as I do, I will do so. 

I think Bee is an inspiration to all pregnant ladies.  She couldn’t look more beautiful!  Beatrice is expecting a boy, and Caleb Joshua “CJ” will be his name.  Last Saturday a group of Bee’s favorite ladies gathered at Villagio Restaurant at Merrick Park in Coral Gables to celebrate this happy occasion.  Bee was surrounded by her family and friends and enjoyed a nice lunch, fun games, presents and lots of love.  Caleb is a very lucky baby who has a lot of loving people anxiously waiting for him.   Here are a few pictures from the shower.
