Ciara’s Quince Portraits
I met Ciara a couple of years ago when she was a sweet little girl, and I can’t believe how grown up and beautiful she is now. So, since it was such a nice day, we decided to go out and take some Quinceañera portraits, LOL We had fun at the Deering Estate, we even had a picnic! The time flew by and we had to rush to get to Key Biscayne to capture some final shots with the sunset. It was an all around gorgeous day. I leave you with some images and a music slideshow that I created with a pretty song to make Ciara’s dad cry, sorry Pedro, I know you’ll love it :-). Happy 15th Birthday sweet Ciara! XOXO.

Samantha’s Quinceañera Portraits
Sami is not only beautiful, but so sweet. I just loved taking her portraits. We included traditional portraits and some fun urban shots in our session, which made for a very fun morning for Sam, her mom, her grandmother and myself. Here are a few of my favorites. Happy Birthday Sami! XOXO




























Ceci’s Quince
One beautiful sweet girl + family + lots of friends = a great party. It was a beautiful night for Ceci and all the people who love her and came to celebrate her 15th birthday. The Key Biscayne Community Center was beautifully decorated, the food was amazing, and the music was loud and fun. I had a great time and I hope my photos tell the story well. Happy Birthday Ceci!

Havana Nights Quinceañera Party
Andrea and Raquel’s long awaited party finally arrived, and it was everything they ever dreamed of and more. It was an absolute pleasure for me to photograph this event as this family is very dear to me, and the twins’ aunt, Rachel, is forever in my heart. Andrea and Raquel are sweet, loving, beautiful girls, and it is just so much fun to be around them! All of their friends agree with me and they were there dancing, celebrating and enjoying the night with Andrea and Raquel. Young and old had a great time at the party. The hall was beautifully decorated in a Havana nights theme. Andrea and Raquel danced with their twin friends, Alex and Gabriel, and they included their family in a 15 candles ceremony. Congratulations to the parents, grandparents, and to the entire family. Happy Birthday Andrea and Raquel. XOXO.

Jazmin’s Quinceañera Portraits
Jazmin is beautiful and sweet, and it was a pleasure for me to do her Quinceañera portraits at Vizcaya gardens on a spring morning that felt more like a hot summer day. We were grateful for no rain and enjoyed every shaded spot, cool breeze, and cold drink we could get. I also took the opportunity and shot a few portraits of Jazmin’s family. Her little sister Kaylin and brother Kenneth are also a delight. What a beautiful family!!! Jazmin’s 15th birthday is this week and I wanted to post this slideshow just in time for that. “Happy Birthday Jazmin, keep smiling.”

Tiffany’s Quince Party
Tiffany’s Quinceañera party was held at the beautiful grounds of ”The Secret Garden” where Tiffany enjoyed an enchanted night surrounded by family and friends who came together to celebrate this important milestone in Tiffany’s life. This party combined a little bit of tradition along with all the things the young crowd loves. Tiffany is not only beautiful, but very sweet. Her family adores her, and judging from Tiffany’s permanent smile throughout the night, I could tell she was very pleased with her party. Happy Birthday Tiffany. I leave you with a slideshow of some of the pictures taken at the party.

Tiffany’s Quince Portraits
I recently met with Tiffany, her mom and her grandmother at Vizcaya Museum and Gardens to take Tiffany’s quinceañera portraits. Tiffany is not only beautiful, but very easy going. The weather on this day was no different than any other Miami summer day, so needless to say, it was HOT!!! Nevertheless, Tiffany was a trooper and her mom and I felt like we were playing “Barbies” as we helped Tiffany change into her different outfits. At the end of the shoot Tiffany cooled off in the ocean at Crandon Marina on Key Biscayne and I took the opportunity to capture some pictures there as well. It made me wish I had packed my swimsuit in my camera bag. Tiffany, I hope you’re having a great time in your “Quinceañera Cruise,” and I hope all your dreams come true.
