I have been an ACES (Aventura City of Excellence School) mom since 2012, and the shows are some of my favorite events! Watching my children perform is always such an emotional experience. They dedicate so much time to learning the dances, and I’m constantly amazed by how well they remember every step.

I know I’m not alone in expressing how grateful I am that ACES offers our children so many extracurricular activities. Having dance as an elective has been particularly wonderful. It gives our children a chance to physically move around and express their creativity.

Thank you Ms. Arguelles! Your dedication to our children is loud and clear! Please continue spreading your love of dance to all the littles that come through the ACES doors. Kids love it, parents love it and it seems you love it too : ) You truly are the best!

Aventura City of Excellence School is Located in Aventura, FL (North Miami)

Mom had a wonderful idea to capture her “babies” DOUBLE DIGITS birthday in Wynwood. We started off at the iconic Wynwood Building located at 2750 NW 3rd Ave, Miami, FL 33127. The Wynwood Building is an iconic and creative hub in the heart of Wynwood. It is a 7,745 SF unit and outfitted for office use with private offices, conference rooms, and open space for a collaborative work space. It was designed by Rafael de Cárdenas.

Next was the Boombox Building located at 954 NW 23rd St. Miami. Their skateboards were the perfect accessory for this shot!

Our last stop was one of Alec Monopoly’s murals. The boys are fans : ). Alec Monopoly is an American street artist. You can see a video of him painting the mural we used as our backdrop here.

So, if you’ve done the typical beach and park family sessions, perhaps something a little more colorful and playful is next on your list! Try Wynwood! Message me to book your next session.

How gorgeous are these pieces?? Every necklace, bracelet, anklet, charm and pair of earrings is handmade by Jacqui of Jacquis Pearls. They can be purchased online or on weekends at the Aventura Mall in North Miami.

Aventura Mall was ranked one of America’s most visited shopping centers by Travel & Leisure magazine. It is located between Miami and Fort Lauderdale and easily reached by car or train ( Brightline ).

Be sure to make time and dine at the Aventura mall! There are so many delicious restaurants to choose from!

Photographing your high school senior is essential! It is the last milestone before your “baby” becomes an adult.

Have your graduate pick an outfit that reflects their personal style. Bring the cap and gown and incorporate any sports, dace or other activities you’ve done in your high school years.

As far as location goes, the session can be done near the school or somewhere altogether different. It is really up to you!

Talk to your photographer about your vision for the session and come up with a plan together.

If you’re ready to book a senior session, send me a note : )

Michael needed a few photos of him and his family, to help introduce himself to the residents of Aventura, as he is running for the City of Aventura Commission, Seat 1.

A little background…

I met Michael MANY years ago at the old dog park across the street from Founders Park. I remember because we both had white Pekingese dogs. He had two and I had one (Buddy). I had never met another white Pekingese dog so it was a memorable moment. Years later I saw him again while he was walking them in my community. He was “the guy with the 2 Pekingese dogs”. A few years later someone recommended a dentist to me and guess who it was? None other than Michael!

It was a true pleasure to photograph Michael and his beautiful family! Wishing you a successful outcome with your campaign!

Volleyball is not just about scoring goals and winning championships. Being on a sport team shape them into resilient individuals!

If your child is interested in volleyball, NMB ‘s main training facility is at ADAPT which is located at 14901 NE 20th Ave North Miami, FL 33181. They also train at the NoMi Wild Cats Center which is located at 1600 NE 126 STREET. NORTH MIAMI. FL 33181.

We have been training with them for 3 years. Being on a team has helped my kids foster valuable social skills, funnel their extra energy into something fun, experience sportsmanship and has built their overall confidence. I think 6th grade was THE perfect time to start. Beginning of middle school can be hard and having them join a team at that time gave them another source of possible friendships.

These photos are from a tournament in Tampa in the beginning of 2023.

Selecting the right outfit for your headshots or branding session is, as you can imagine, very important. It will make a big impact on the impression the images will portray.

You should pick an outfit that you would wear to an important business meeting. This can be a well fitted dress, a blazer or a business casual blouse paired with a nice pair of slacks or skirt. For men, a suit and tie or an outfit that will perfectly portray your industry.

Sticking to neutral solid colors would be best as these are timeless and work well in most settings. You should avoid trends unless you plan on redoing photos every 6-8 months.

We also suggest having your makeup and hair done by a professional.

You can also bring accessories like your laptop, a book or anything that would make sense for your profession.

And lastly, bring your confidence and fun attitude!

I would have to say that the best time is when it isn’t 100 degrees out LOL !

If at all possible, you should definitely schedule your yearly family session between November and April. The weather will be a little cooler and less humid. This is not guaranteed of course BUT it is the best option.

Another important factor is the time the sun rises and sets. The best time to photograph outdoors is at sunrise or sunset. If you’re planning a sunset session and your kids like to go to bed early, it is best to schedule your shoot between November and January as the sun sets between 5 and 6pm. If you’re planning for a sunrise session, the latest sunrises happen between mid March to mid April between 7 and 7:30am.

Side note… Pictured is Mia who I have been photographing since she was in her mommy’s belly. Mia has been diagnosed with Bohring-Opitz Syndrome. To find out more please visit BOS site. I like to bring awareness to this syndrome each time I post her adorable little face. Her IG page is here

If you’re interested in purchasing life insurance, look no further.

Insurance agents and brokers specialize in helping individuals and families find the right life insurance policies. They can provide guidance, assess your needs, and offer options from various insurance companies.

It’s important to provide accurate information about your personal and financial situation so that you can receive appropriate recommendations and quotes. Be prepared to discuss your income, family situation, financial goals, and any outstanding debts.

Life insurance serves several important purposes, and whether you need it depends on your individual circumstances and financial goals. Here are some common reasons why people consider purchasing life insurance:

1. Financial Protection for Loved Ones: One of the primary reasons to have life insurance is to provide financial security for your loved ones in case you pass away. If you are the primary breadwinner in your family, life insurance can replace your income, helping your family meet their financial needs, pay bills, and maintain their standard of living.
2. Covering Debts and Expenses: Life insurance can be used to cover outstanding debts such as a mortgage, car loans, credit card debt, or medical bills. It ensures that your family isn’t burdened with these financial obligations when you’re no longer there to pay them.
3. Funeral and Final Expenses: Funerals and burial expenses can be costly. Life insurance can help cover these immediate expenses, relieving your family of the financial burden during a difficult time.
4. College Education: If you have children and want to ensure they have access to higher education, life insurance can be used to fund their college tuition and other educational expenses.
5. Estate Planning: Life insurance can play a vital role in estate planning. It can provide funds to pay estate taxes and other settlement costs, ensuring that your estate is passed on to your heirs as you intend.
6. Business Continuation: If you’re a business owner, life insurance can help ensure that your business can continue to operate smoothly after your passing. It can be used to buy out a deceased partner’s share or provide funds for the transition of ownership.
7. Charitable Giving: If you have charitable intentions, life insurance can be a tool to leave a significant donation to your chosen charity or cause.
8. Supplement Retirement Income: Some types of life insurance, such as cash-value or permanent life insurance, can accumulate a cash value over time. This cash value can be accessed or borrowed against in retirement to supplement your income.
9. Peace of Mind: Life insurance provides peace of mind, knowing that your loved ones will be financially protected even if something unexpected happens to you.

Getting a puppy to pose for pictures can be a fun and rewarding experience. Here are some tips to help you capture great photos of your furry friend:

1. Establish a bond: Spend quality time with your puppy, play with them, and establish a trusting relationship. The more comfortable they are with you, the more likely they’ll cooperate during the photoshoot.
2. Choose the right time: Pick a time when your puppy is well-rested and relaxed. Avoid photographing them when they’re overly excited or tired.
3. Create a calm environment: Find a quiet, well-lit location with minimal distractions. Remove any potential hazards or items that might divert your puppy’s attention.
4. Use treats and toys: Positive reinforcement is key. Keep some treats or their favorite toy handy to reward and motivate them. Use these incentives to direct their attention and encourage desired poses.
5. Patience is key: Puppies have short attention spans, so be patient and allow breaks if they become restless. Don’t rush the process; it may take time for them to settle and cooperate.
6. Get down to their level: For more engaging and eye-catching photos, get down to your puppy’s eye level. This perspective helps capture their personality and creates a stronger connection in the photo.
7. Incorporate familiar objects: If your puppy has a favorite blanket, toy, or bed, include it in the photo. Familiar objects can make them feel more comfortable and at ease, resulting in better poses.
8. Use natural light: Natural lighting tends to produce better quality photos than artificial light. Try to shoot in well-lit areas near windows or outdoors during the daytime. Avoid using the camera flash, as it can startle your puppy.
9. Make it a positive experience: Keep the atmosphere relaxed and enjoyable. Speak softly, use a friendly tone, and reward your puppy frequently. Remember, the goal is to capture their happiness and playfulness.
10. Capture candid moments: Sometimes the best photos are the ones taken when your puppy isn’t expecting it. Keep your camera ready and snap away during spontaneous moments. These candid shots can showcase their authentic personality.

Remember, every puppy is unique, and it may take time for them to get accustomed to posing for pictures. Be patient, have fun, and enjoy the process of capturing precious moments with your adorable companion

This will not only create lasting memories but also give your guests a chance to experience the city.
9. Stay Hydrated: With the heat and humidity in Miami, it’s essential to stay hydrated throughout the wedding day. Provide plenty of water stations and refreshments for your guests, especially if you’re having an outdoor ceremony or reception.
10. Obtain Necessary Permits: If you’re planning an outdoor wedding or any event that requires setting up structures or using public spaces, make sure to obtain the necessary permits from the city of Miami. This will ensure that your event is in compliance with local regulations.

Remember, planning a wedding is a personal experience, so tailor these tips to your preferences and make your Miami wedding a reflection of your unique style and love story.

A branding session is a type of photography session that focuses on creating images that represent a brand or business. The goal of a branding session is to capture images that can be used in marketing materials, such as a website, social media profiles, business cards, and other promotional materials.

A new television show called “Wednesday,” based on the Wednesday Addams character, was announced for 2021. Tim Burton produced the program, which is available on Netflix.

The show’s plot allegedly follows a young Wednesday as she enrolls in Nevermore School and makes an effort to develop her psychic skills, stop a terrifying killing spree that has scared the neighborhood, and unravel the paranormal mystery that ensnared her parents 25 years ago.

Jenna Ortega, a rising star recognized for her parts in “Jane the Virgin” and “You,” Took on the role of Wednesday. Additional cast members include Thora Birch as Wednesday’s mother, Luis Guzmán as Gomez Addams, and Catherine Zeta-Jones as Morticia Addams.

The following advice can help you choose what to wear for your senior pictures:

1. Choose out clothes that give you a confident and comfortable feeling. Your particular style and personality should be captured in your senior pictures. That will be evident in the images whether you feel happy about what you’re wearing.
2. Think about where the photo shoot will take place. When selecting an outfit, take into consideration the setting’s color and style. Wear more earth tones or natural colors, for instance, if the photo session will be in a park.
3. Layers and textures can be combined. Your outfit’s layers and various textures can add depth and intrigue to your images. You can add depth to your ensemble by wearing a sweater over a collared shirt or a scarf with a jacket, for instance.
4. Do not use logos or busy patterns. Large logos or busy patterns on your clothing might be distracting and detract from you in images. Use simple patterns or solid colors as an alternative.
5. Think ahead and put your clothes on before. Make sure your outfits fit nicely and go well together by planning them out in advance and trying them on. You’ll have less time and anxiety the day of the shoot if you do this.

Keep in mind, your senior portrait is a reflection of you, so pick outfits that show your personal style and make you feel great!

A family photo shoot can be a fantastic event and a good way to preserve memories of your children at this age. You can get high-quality pictures from professionals that you can save for years. Having professional photos taken of your child is a terrific method to capture that moment in time and preserve it for all time because children change and develop swiftly. Children may also enjoy participating in picture shoots, especially if they get to choose their own attire and dress up for the occasion. The end product will probably be a collection of priceless memories that you and your children will remember for years to come, whether you decide to have a photo shoot in a studio or at a location that is significant to your family.
