First hockey Game!!

So, I've been living here for almost 5 Years and I've always planned on going to a hockey game. I feel like it's " so American" and I had to watch one! Well, almost 5 years later, here I am, watching my first hockey game- kind of. I still feel like it would be fun to go on those big games with gigantic arenas a la Madison square garden and eat all kinds of junk food with my best friends :) yep, one more thing to add to my to-do list. Hope it doesn't take 5 more years :)

Mike and Manoela: married

This past Sunday was the big day for this amazing couple! I met Manoela on Facebook and she came for a family portrait session at central park with Michael and Daniel, with the cutest cheeks ever! He is sooo funny and did so great at the wedding- proud parents!
We had the honor to be a part of their big day a few days ago. All the joy and happiness you deserve with much love in this new beginning! Pictures coming soon :)

Sunshine!

You know that kind of person who brings light wherever she goes? And that has so much LOVE to give that makes your heart happy? Well, get ready to meet Secili!

I had a great time and literally did my little happy dance when she said she would love to come for a portrait session this past weekend. I hadn't seen her in such a long time and baby Cole was my biggest joy! I was beyond excited and my heart was for sure really happy to see this family again!

Thanks again Sunshine:) You are beautiful as always! Cole is adorable!!!! And Kyra, she is sooooo pretty and still is the same Kyra I met :) Can't get enough of her! Hope you like the pictures! I had a great time!

Family portrait weekend!

I was away this weekend visiting my favorite place in the USA: Washington DC. I sure love NY but your first love never leaves your heart so being there was a complete joy! I had the opportunity to shoot amazing people that I met back on the day when I lived and worked there and I couldn't be happier! Here is a sneak peek of some of the moments we had! More to come! Enjoy :)

Milene And Idelmo

In July I had the honor to photograph one of my best friend's wedding, Milene and Idelmo. I was really looking forward to their wedding but this past weekend I was really excited about their new photos! I didn't have the chance to do their engagement session so shooting them now was like sealing the deal! It was a great afternoon and once again, awesome to be around people you love! All the happiness and joy you both deserve!

Go Pink!

Last week the Puma store at Union Square hosted the event to support breast cancer research and the famous actress Nina Dobrev was there to meet some lucky fans and raise awareness against breast cancer.
A great cause!

Book signing with Hilary Duff

Okay, I admit, I'm a huge fan of Hilary! The second I heard she was going to be in the city promoting her new book I just couldn't help but be there! She is been such a great role model for girls of all ages, specially in a world where appearance seems to count so much among teenagers and younger girls who take wrong turns in life by copying other's bad attitudes.

Anyway, back to excitment! I was one of the most excited at the book store and security probably got confused with the fact that I was covering the event and then immediately ran to the line to get my book signed and my 30 seconds of happiness with Hilary! Lol! I can't believe she is already married and has baby number one on the way! And she is my age. Well, c'est la vie! God bless you and your beautiful family my dear :) you rock! *.*
Here are some of the pictures!

Bruna and Alexandre

So this past Sunday  I had the pleasure to photograph this amazing couple, Bruna and Alexandre! They are both from Brazil - my home country :) Anyone else feeling like jumping on a plane with me?? :) - and the day couldn't be better for their session!

After a LOOOOONG week of rain and cloudy sky, we were lucky to get a gorgeous  sunny day! 

It was a truly joy meeting them as we walked around the park and they were super up to any challenge I suggested! Which makes the job a lot more fun !

Thank you once again,  You guys rock!
