Feliz Noche Buena! It’s here guys we officially made it, it’s the holidays! It hasn’t been the easiest year, but it’s time to celebrate, we definitely deserve it.
I have about 3 to 4 years working with Darlene from Suitheelscurves , my favorite blogger. She focuses on everything from lifestyle, family and plus size fashion. She’s so freaking sweet and every time we work together, it’s always fun!
Since we like to work together in batches, let me explain, we take one day, with a whole bunch of outfits, and create content in bulk. So to me I didn’t think it was out of the ordinary to show up and go in one a few concepts today.
Little did I know that’s Arlene, had a pretty nice surprise up her sleeve, or should I say in her belly!
Creating these announcement images for Darlene was such a blessing, I definitely jumped up and down and gave her a huge hug! Now Michaela is going to be a big sister and her excitement is nothing short of enthusiastic.
Dear Santa, this year, a family of 3 will become a family of 4!
I’ve been itching to photograph a Daddy + Me session. As much as I adore documenting mother’s I’ve been wanting an intimate session that captures the love of fatherhood. So when I was blessed with the opportunity to photograph Mo and his son, Hunter, there was no way I was saying no.
Our day started with some brisk air, which I was worried was going to be a little bit too cold for Hunter. We decided to shoot full force right under the sun to keep warm, which ended up making things perfect, while I promoted Dad and little man to run around and play.
Once Hunter started skipping, chasing daddy and playing tag, his shyness quickly faded.
One of my favorite prompts for toddlers, “Show me your muscles!”
What a great mini session with father and son. As always, I’m honored to be that fly on the wall with my camera. You don’t always need a special occasion to hire a photographer, it’s those little movements that matter the most.

I’ve never been shy to mix colors and prints. And it usually shows in my illustrations.
This photo shoot was no exception.
Working with Liss was a real pleasure, especially since all the patterns and brightness didn’t take away from the grungy look I really wanted to perceive. Her vibe was ready to work, when she brought out her personal speaker, and I had no trouble with letting go and snapping away.
Thanks for bringing some spunk to our session Liss!
The driven Jorge and and Edgar asked Misha and I to be P.A.’s for an upcoming project.
and I was excited, how could I say no?
The talented Danny Hastings from Atomicus Films would be shooting, for all you spanish music lovers out there, bachatero Toby Love ‘s new music video, Lejos.
The first day we started to set up, I was up and ready to go by like 10 p,m Yes, we were working at night.
Once we got to the location, everything was covered in dust. We had so much work to do.
We needed to make a bar, work on the stage, remove many furniture that just doesnt fit, clean, paint, add lights, and so on.
So we got started.
After all the work we did, we still were not finished. Day two rolled around and we got started right away. Jorge started to paint his speak easy sign while I got a hold of the curtains that are on stage. I have to say, with the limited fabric I had, I think I did them enough justice. ♥
Day three, time to shoot.
I had to go to work, and couldn’t be there by 5am like everyone else. I got to work at 5 am and left by 9am.
I couldn’t miss this. I finally arrived by 10:30am ( long way to Brooklyn ) and everyone was already set up.
I was glad I didn’t miss much.
The wonderful Pia was doing wardrobe and I have to say she did great!
I’ve seen her strut her fashion senses when we were in High School together, in our fashion illustration classes together, and even in our annual fashion talent shows, but things like that are never really the same once you’re rushed and being put under pressure because of timing and one horrible person you have to deal with and answer to.
Yes, I went there. hahaha
Any way, to back to our behind the scenes posts, enough drama.
Toby Love was actually a very chill person.
You could tell he was loved by many , not just because of his twitter stats, but because he was very down to earth, cracking jokes and such kind of dude.
I cannot express enough how much I was glad he was just him and nothing to extravagant.
Hooray for celebrities that aren’t douche-bags!
Can you believe this awesome dress that the female lead Sally was wearing for the Flash back shot was Pia’s High school Prom dress!
It looked amazing on her.
Sally’s acting was on point, especially her face expressions.
Well, I hope you guys enjoyed a sneak peak into this video. I have been holding this post hostage until Gabriel was finished editing all the clips together, so you guys can have everything at once.
Everyone was absolutely fantastic to work with. I had such a great time and experience and I definitely hope it’s not the last.
So enough stalling, here’s the end result. Enjoy, and please don’t forget to visit all the links below that take it back to those who made it happen.
