Worth Avenue Engagement Photos in Palm Beach, Florida

On December 23rd, 2017, Andrew and I had the pleasure of capturing Marlena and Drew's Worth Avenue engagement photos! These two are the cutest together! We had such a great time strolling along the street of Worth Avenue with them as we chatted about their wedding!

Their session began towards the westward part of Worth Avenue and ended on the beach. They had two outfits, a dressy and a casual one. Since Drew is in the Air Force he wore his sharp uniform for his first outfit and Marlena wore a gorgeous white dress. For their second look they went with a casual outfit perfect for sunset portraits on the beach.

Marlena and Drew, thank you for choosing us to document your engagement photos! It was such a pleasure working with you both! We wish you all the best in this exciting season of wedding planning!

Katie + Ryan | Engagement at the Breakers Palm Beach

Engagement at the Breakers Palm Beach

On Saturday the 23rd of September, Andrew and I had the pleasure of capturing Katie and Ryan's engagement at the Breakers Palm Beach! Their session was filled with elegant scenes on this gorgeous day! These two high school sweethearts will be tying the knot on May 19th, 2018 at the Breakers West! We are so excited to document their gorgeous day!

Katie & Ryan, thank you for choosing us to be your wedding photographers! We are looking forward to your wedding day and hope you enjoy your engagement photos!

We began our session on the lush green golf course at the Breakers! Look at those happy smiles! 

Then we walked over to the courtyard and captured a few portraits in front of the fountain!  The light was SO DREAMY!! 

Then we did a few more in front of the grand fountain in front of the Breakers Palm Beach resort because their engagement at the Breakers Palm Beach wouldn't be complete without a few shots in this amazing spot! 

Then we headed to the beach right before sunset. Ryan gave Katie his great grandmother's gorgeous heirloom ring! It is incredible!! 

The beach was so dreamy that evening. A few rain clouds were coming in creating a soft sky and cool breeze! Katie's, Lilly Pulitzer dress was flowing so perfectly in the wind! I love how you can almost feel the breeze flowing and their sweet love!

The Carter Family | Palm Beach Family Portraits

Palm Beach Family Portraits at Bethesda by the Sea

On Saturday, August 19th, Andrew and I had the pleasure of capturing the Carter's Palm Beach family portraits! The Carters have been our dear friends for nearly a decade and in April of this year, they added a new member to their family--Clayton James! He is such a joyful baby and they are the cutest family! You might remember their Christmas portraits from last year when Brooke was rockin' a cute bump! Now C.J. is here and we were honored to capture their first family portraits!

When Frank and Brooke asked us to be C.J.'s godparents we were, and still are, so honored! He is such a fun little one and we love this excuse to spoil him a bit! I think he already knows that when he comes to Rina & Rino's (our official nicknames) house my camera is bound to come out and he smiles for me almost everytime!

If you're wondering how our nicknames came about... Well, Brooke and I came up with them because they are short for madrina and padrino which is the name for godmother and godfather in Spanish and Italian. Since I am Cuban, speak Spanish and we were in Italy when he was born we thought the names were fitting! Plus it's fun to have a unique nickname! Now let's see if C.J. actually uses it when the day comes!

Frank and Brooke, thank you for being our dear friends! Watching you both step into this new season as parents has been such a joy and privilege to witness! You both are amazing parents!! We are so thankful for you guys and we hope you enjoy your first family portraits with C.J.!
