Holiday Mini Portrait Sessions – South Florida Photographer

It’s time for annual holiday mini sessions! You’re free to do these on any date you’d like between September 1 and November 17. Space is VERY limited for holiday sessions this year, so please – if you’re interested – make sure you get in touch as these will book up.

Mini sessions are great for families, maternity, couples, etc. Since these sessions have the holiday season in mind, they all include a set of custom holiday cards. They include up to 5 people at a location within 20 miles of ZIP 33321, 20 minutes of shooting time, about 10-15 final images to view in an online gallery, a set of 24 custom designed holiday cards, mini session pricing on all other prints/albums, and images for you to use on Facebook. High res files are also available if interested at a special mini-session rate.

The cost is only $145 for weekday morning sessions and $195 for weekend afternoon sessions. Please contact me by phone at 954.247.1121 or click here to send me a message.

If you’re interested in scheduling a full-length session rather than a mini-session, please don’t hesitate to contact me as I don’t have many spots left.

Hope to hear from you soon!

Fine print: Mini sessions are not available for newborns (i.e. babies up to 4 weeks old), as this is a different type of shoot. There is no minimum order for mini-sessions. Space is limited, so payment must be received in full to reserve your session date and time.

Lana | Newborn Portraits | South Florida Baby and Child Photographer

Just last month, I photographed our friends Jason and Luciana’s Maternity Session in West Palm Beach, in anticipation of the arrival of their daughter. Now, adorable baby Lana is here, and I was able to take her newborn portraits of her with her Mommy, Daddy, and Grandma, when she was only 4 days old!

Newborn sessions are so much fun! I love being able to capture sweet family moments like the ones below.




If you’re interested in having a South Florida Maternity or Newborn Session photographed, please contact me so that we can get you scheduled!

Nicole & Scott’s Engagement Party | South Florida Wedding Photographer

I recently photographed Nicole & Scott’s engagement session in Las Olas and Ft. Lauderdale Beach, and I also had the pleasure of taking pictures at their engagement party! I had a really great time hanging out with Nicole, Scott, and their family and friends! Now I am even more looking forward to their wedding this coming October!

Check out some of my favorite captures:

David’s Back to School Mini Session | South Florida Child Photographer

I did a Back to School mini session with David as a test shoot for my location for my upcoming Back to School sessions next month, September 4th. He was just adorable and we got some really fun photos of him modeling his Thomas the train backpack and Cars lunchbox! My son has the same lunchbox. :) So cute!!

David is 4 years old and will be going into Pre-K this year. He has a vibrant personality and it was great to capture that essence. I know his parents will always look back and remember this exciting time in his life as he begins his journey into the first of his real school years!

That’s something I love about Back to School Sessions – unlike the boring photos on a solid color background that you get from the school’s designated photographer, a Back to School mini-session is a way for your child to have fun and let their personality shine. In 20 minutes, I’ll capture real smiles and expressions to preserve a memory.

Luciana & Jason have a baby on the way! | South Florida Maternity Photographer

Jason is my husband Adrian’s closest friend and business partner running Táve Studio Manager (CRM software for photographers), and he and his beautiful wife Luciana are expecting baby L in just a few short weeks!

I was thrilled that Luciana wanted me to take some maternity photos for her and Jason to remember this special, amazing time in their lives. It was extra fun for me to share my photography with some of our close friends as they journey into this new adventure called parenthood!

We started out at their gorgeous home to grab some shots in the nursery and get some belly photos in the backyard (how absolutely beautiful is Luciana?! Especially at 35 weeks pregnant in these photos!) and then we continued shooting as we waited for a table at Brewzzi at CityPlace in West Palm Beach. What a fun location!

Hope you enjoy the photos, and congratulations to Jason and Luciana and their families! We can’t wait to meet Baby L!

August 2, 2010 - 10:32 pm Luciana - Thank you so much, Karen!! The photos are absolutely beautiful! We had lots of fun with you Adrian and Zack and this day will always be remembered with love! =)
