What am I up to?

"Rosie did our engagement/family photos and we had such a great time at our shoot. Jeff's sons were hamming it up and enjoyed every minute. When the photos came in, we OOOHED and AHHHED with happiness !! She captured all the emotions we displayed and our beach setting added the perfect touch. We look forward to having Rosie participate in documenting our upcoming wedding. She's terrific !!!!!" - Amy W from Delray Beach, FL

I've been editing a LOT... my own sessions and 3 fellow photographers ones.

What else? Planning ahead for next year weddings, doing a lot of networking...

Also, I created a group in FB called So. Fla. Vendors United and I'm glad I did. Broward/WPB counties vendors we needed something like that. Check us out!

4. Become the most positive and enthusiastic person you know.
5. Be forgiving of yourself and others.
6. Be generous.
7. Have a grateful heart.
8. Persistence, persistence, persistence.
9. Discipline yourself to save money on even the most modest salary.
10. Treat everyone you meet like you want to be treated.
11. Commit yourself to constant improvement.
12. Commit yourself to quality.
13. Understand that happiness is not based on possessions, power or prestige, but on relationship with people you love and respect.
14. Be loyal.
15. Be honest.
16. Be a self-starter.
17. Be decisive even it it means you'll sometimes be wrong.

21. Don't do anything that wouldn't make your Mom proud." - H. Jackson Brown Jr.

Wondering... no more :)

And when I couldn't ask for more...

After a kick @ss photoshoot weekend I'm back to the board... I've been editing for the last 3 days and @ least I have one more day to go... and I love it!


Also, I'm finishing up a lil' project for http://MelonTreeKids.com while I'm getting ready for my next 4 sessions this upcoming weekend. And when I couldn't ask for more...

I've got a phone call to cover a private high-profile bday party, Yay!
I won't be able to give details til' after the event cause'... it's a SURPRISE :)
I'm all excited about it!!! wish me luck...
Ta-ta for now, R

A night to remember...

I decided to put Shannon's skills to the test... two of my favorite people (yup, my kinda women) were the perfect canvas to a night of makeup, wine and pictures.


Carol and I will be doing a Boudoir session pretty soon and makeup is a must-have for the occasion. Veronica is trying a new color palette and thinking 'wedding' :)
Pictures are good but I believe they are not giving enough credit to Shannon's talent and passion for this art called makeup.

To all my brides' readers - if you are looking for a kick @ss makeup artist Shannon is the one. Not only you will get the magic done but she will educate you through the transformation and, that's a plus... enjoy! Rosie :)

Wedding photography - 1st consultation's details

I have to confess... took me a while to find my very personal approach to wedding photography consultation, til' I realized showing who I am and exposing the passion I have for this art were the  tools I really needed to create a relationship with my potential clients.

The most important reason behind meeting with my brides and grooms in person is to see IF we click, because... at the end of the day it's going to be a matter of trusting me with, com'on... your wedding memories!

I have the LUXURY to work on my own terms; I make the rules and I break them all when I have to :) that's fun LOL

I started offering packages just to make it easier on couples but nothing have been written on stone.
You want more options? CD, prints, albums, canvas, you name it and I'll make it happens without the pressure of 'gotta pick a package'.

I learned that in life... after all the pitches, all the negotiations and all the necessary signed contracts, my word is the one you can count on. Why? Cause' I care.
Let's meet...
Rosie :)

Spa Day / Bday party :)

It feels like I edited another wedding LOL, not joking. With over 350 final edited images I'm wondering what her mom is planning for her 15th :)
Had a great time, well... everybody did, enjoy! R

Editing away...

After re-scheduling for over a month (due to the weather), today I was able to capture D & D e-session (engagement). We started around 7:00am and between jokes and personal anecdotes we created an incredible photoshoot... the rest is all in their pictures. Some to be shared, some to be shared NOT :)
Lil' M and Faythe's family are been edited as well, hang in there...
