My Favorite Things List

I love so many things.  I  mean really: I LOVE SO MANY THINGS.  Every time I get to experience a new type of food, a new product or a new place,I get extremely excited.  I guess I can say I love all things NEW.  However, I have a list of things that I just can’t live without: 1. MAC Lipglass – Oh... Continue »

I suck…and that is a good thing!

So what if I suck?  I have never taken photo of foods before?  What if he spreads around town that  I suck as a photographer and causes no else to hire me again?  I can hear them now: “Ha, ha, ha, who does she think she is?  You are not a professional, where did you go to school for... Continue »

All Familiar Faces

I decided to take the long route home, and by long I mean walking to the next subway stop (1 mile) instead of taking the one across the street.   Since losing 20 pounds is one of my top 4 goals in a myriad of others, I figured this would be a good start. As I approached the 200 meter mark,... Continue »

30 Day Blog Challenge | Day 1

Uff!  I finally sat down on my bed, pull the covers and began my nightly routine before going to bed: magazine, Facebook, to do list and nightly talk with my boo.  As I scrolled trough the news feed on Facebook, a post jumped right at me: 30 day – challenge-starts-NOW – posted by one of my fave photographer’s Tim...

Andrea and Carlos Maternity Session |...

I saw her smile from a mile away.  If I could describe it, it would literally say, “I am in love and am loved”.  As they walked towards our meeting place, he held her hand tightly and watched each step she took.  His face was one of a king holding on to his most precious piece of jewel. As... Continue »

Lilian and Claudio’s Engagement |...

I got a call from Claudio the morning of the shoot saying they were running a little bit late…which he quickly clarified that it was all Lillian’s fault.  According to him, it only takes him 15 minutes to get ready: 2 minutes to shower, 10 minutes to put on his underwear and 3 minutes to dress (you do the...

Caio’s Birthday: Silver Spring,...

“Olha a Tia Mirian!” look at Auntie Mirian, his mother exclaimed.  His eyes lit up when he saw me while his tiny legs raced to towards my open arms.  I could smell his whole day worth of jumping as he gave me the most tight hug.  I said, “I can’t believe that he is already walking, let alone racing!”  We all bursted in...

Thank You

It was a very cold early morning and the sun hadn’t yet come out.  She woke up with the sound of the wind brutally beating against the window panes. She opened her eyes and realized that darkness was still hovering the skies.  She  grumbled for a few minutes because it was cold, and even though she was laying under... Continue »

Something Old, Something New | My trip...

I had to the opportunity to visit Boston briefly when I went up for a training in early September.  I was so upset that I had forgotten my camera and I thought the city was so gorgeous, that I had to capture it some kind of way.  So these pics were taken with my iPhone. I thought the city... Continue »

My Trip to Montgomery, AL

I recently had the opportunity to visit Montgomery, AL.  It had been 12 long years and I must say that I actually missed the feel of the country and the serenity that comes from a slow paced city.  I was eager not only revisit old friends and the city, but also to get a taste of some delicious home cooked...
