Palm Beach Maternity Photographer | Erica + Brian {Awaiting Baby Landon}
Erica and I met when I lived in Greenville SC. She and Brian are expecting a baby boy in the Spring and this weekend they came down to visit family in Boynton Beach for their baby shower. We set up a maternity shoot for today, yes.... Super Bowl Sunday.... and unfortunately it wasn't a pretty day out and we were strapped for time because Brian had more pressing matters to attend to ;) . But, we managed to get a few great shots, met a native on the farm (a little Jack Russell) and finished in time for the pre-game.
It was great hanging out with Erica again and meeting her boyfriend. I'm told he HATES pictures, I guess I didn't make a good first impression on him :D
Here's a few of my fav's... there's more on facebook.
Palm Beach Boudoir Photographer | Valentines Day Boudoir Photography
So here we are. Only 12 days until what is supposed to be the most romantic day of the year. I've had ah-may-zing clients this Valentines Day season and still have several to go. These ladies had their men in mind for these photos.
What's better than getting all dolled up, rolling around in the sheets, feeling sexy, confident, and beautiful? I'll tell ya.... it's taking that experience and wrapping it up in a pretty box with a bow and handing it over to the hunny. Just wait.... wait for it..... there it is.... his absolute astonishment when he see's what you did for him. Yep, that's the best gift ever. I guarantee he'll never forget it and neither will you.
Of the ladies I've photographed this season, a few have given me permission to share their beautiful images and show other ladies that it doesn't take a Victories Secret model to pull this off. Big thanks to Jennifer (Beauty by Jennifer Cruz) who set these ladies up with everything they needed to look and feel great.
Here's three ladies for now.... maybe I'll share more later ;)
Palm Beach Photographer | 2012 Mini Sessions are here!
For 2012 I have decided to approach the mini session madness differently. Often I am only able to give a few weeks heads up of when the sessions will be. Well, not for this year! I have four weekends picked out with fun theme's, props, and locations from now until the end of the year. Listed below is the date, cost, and description of each session. You'll notice my available slots are much higher than it's been in the past, I increased it because I'm sooooooo wayyyyyy in advance.
Spread the word :)
West Palm Beach Photographer | Jince {Just Because}
The month of January is usually filled with sessions that I can't post because they're for his eyes only. This year I've been given the opportunity to photograph many new clients and a variety of session types because of an ad I ran. Yesterdays session took place in West Palm Beach with Jince, a New York native that ended up in Florida (just like the rest of us transplants) to further his career as an engineer. Jince's idea for the session was a casual, urban shoot to get some professional photographs of himself to share with friends and family.
Here's a few from the session:
Palm Beach Photographer | {Mini} Munchkin Photo Sesh
After an impromptu rally of the kids we headed west just in time for some nice golden sun. I wanted to practice playing with sun and my sister in law also wanted me to teach her some basics. What's better to photograph than a group of rambunctious kids? Gavin (my son) is cousins with Kate. Taylor (Gavin's future wife) and Austin came along with their friend Brian and aside from the croc sightings and a few ant bites I think we did alright!
Facebook is really starting to butcher my uploads. These are the same sneaks from the fan page but the quality is much better.

Palm Beach Family Photographer | {Vintage} Christmas Mini Sessions
This year for holiday portraits I wanted to do something different. I wanted to incorporate a set into my holiday mini's and I went with a vintage {with a modern twist} set. The mantel was the piece that tied it all together, big thanks to my brother Matt for building it. Once it was built I aged it to give it the look I was going for. Then I set it with some fun props and called it a day.
Let me start by saying the radar LIED! There wasn't any green on the radar, although it was windy and had the feeling of rain... I made it through 5 sessions without more than a light sprinkle, but on my 6th it started to come down hard. We had to throw the towel in at that point. There is a strong possibility of having another mini session day so if you're interested please contact me asap. This may be the last year I do mini's.
Palm Beach Photographer | Thanks for Giving... Give away....
So much has happened both in my personal and career life over the last year. I'm extremely grateful to all the amazing friends, family, and clients who have seen me through. Photography has helped to keep my mind off of more pressing issues in my life. It's something I could do all day every day and never get sick of it. It's such an honor to be a part of your life, photograph your memories, and watch your families grow. The biggest compliment you can give me is to refer a friend to me and I'm about 80% word of mouth. So for that, I thank you.
The month of November serves as two events. First, it's Thanksgiving (of course!) and second, it's the birthday month of Mirrored Images. This year I will be giving away a session to one lucky individual. Send me your story, your triumph, and your blessings and I will read it and choose one lucky person to give a session to. Nothing is off limits here. Wedding, newborn, high school senior, boudoir, maternity, etc. You tell me in your submission what you're interested in and if you win, it's yours.
All entries must be received by November 16th at midnight. Please email your story to shootme@mirroredimages.net and include your name, age, location (must be willing to travel to Palm Beach County), session interested in, and the best contact number. Your story will not be shared publicly so please don't hold back. Tell me why you deserve this, tell me what you're grateful for, and tell me what obstacles you've overcome in your life.
