i got a call from lily's mom just this week. due to some really rotten circumstances we needed to squeeze a shoot this week. i was more than delighted to do this for her. it was super hot even at 9:30 but still fun and i hope you like what you see debby! thanks and good luck next week. you'll be in my thoughts.

julia...

summertime + watermelon = yummy julia!

oh my! is this little cupcake delicious! can i get a woot woot? why, mom's idea to have a watermelon feast on a hot miami july day. (kathleen: ponytail maker...thumbs down, whatermelon party thrower...thumbs up!)

it was all i could do to not nibble her up along with a big ol' slice of melon. she's a b2b client (for more info click here then when you are on my website click on products) . this was her six month shoot.





c'mon. look at that watermelon drool! who isn't transported back to their childhood?

lorena and co.

OH MY GAWD! how stinkin' cute is lorena??? VERY! and aaron...que guapo! these two are broward clients but came to miami for a weekend staycation for their anniversary. they are bellies to babies (b2b) clients so keep up with my blog and look for an upcoming newborn shoot with the newest mr.bernstein. they would not tell me the baby's name! how dare they! just kidding, in fact i was telling them how interesting i find it that people will tell you before your baby is born if they don't like the name that you have chosen. However they would never say that once you have given the name. soooo i totally get why they are keeping it a secret from me. or it could be that they are going to name the baby after me. ok i KNOW they are NOT...it was a joke.

anyway enjoy their gorgeousness!





sweet as candy i tell ya!

happy birthday pop!

stacy is a bellies 2 babies client. her family was visiting from virginia and california and they decided to get her dad a family shoot as a happy birthday gift! so we meet up for a late day sweaty shoot where I bossed everyone around. how's that pop for a happy birthday? he did get to enjoy a burger at beer and burger joint afterwards...which i'm sure made up for the previous hour! i slipped over to Joe's and got a lobster roll to go. yum in my tum :)



thanks guys...you are a gorgeous family!






here's stacy with her niece.





love this...


yummy eyes!




here's sam and max. max pretty much slept through our entire shoot. does the one month old dude have stylin' hair or what?

enzo and co.

gianna called me a little late in the game..."the sleepy baby game" that is. she didn't find out about me until enzo was 5 weeks old. i was very nervous about shooting a baby this age. it can be very difficult past the first week or two. reason? they wake up after two weeks! enzo was such a good boy though. however at the beginning of our shoot he was certainly calling the shots..."awake shots". then mom stepped in with the the big guns...you know what i mean. after a full tummy & a warm room he was out! then it was time to play. enjoy! he's just yummy and i'll tell you about some more yummy-ness in the family later in the post.






ok so remember the additional yummy-ness? here's ethan... what a great kid. he was super helpful during our shoot...(might have to add him to my payroll) and thanked me about 5-6 times when i left. what an awesome boy! and stunningly handsome. I love non smiling images any day over the smiling ones!!! i personally believe that smiling images force your eye to focus on the mouth and smile instead of the eyes. and for me???...the eyes are where it's at!














love these little lips!



here's mom through the mirror...



thanks guys for a great shoot!! (especially you ethan! you rock!)


Studio note:
I'm not shooing any clients this summer that can wait until fall. BUT if you want to shoot in the fall please call the studio to schedule you fall session soon. most people think that they are ahead of the game when they call me in october to book for fall. and to their surprise it's too late. I'm usually booked for the ENTIRE fall season by the second or third week in october. i will also not shoot anyone past Dec 1st. this will allow us to wrap up november orders. happy summer!
