Miami Portrait Project UNVEILED {South Florida Freelance Photographer}

HEY! I wanted to say a huge THANK YOU to all of the participants, and attendees of last week's event, and of course the sponsors, Imagesound Americas!

It was a huge success and I couldn't be happier with the result of my first solo show in Miami.

If you couldn't make it to the event, check out the video reel of highlights below, created by ZipinMedia.

Coming in the next few weeks, I'll be launching my email newsletter campaign featuring the portraits I shot for the first installment of the "Miami Portrait Project." Subscribe for free, here! 

Or if you're in the Wynwood (Miami) area, be sure to stop by and see the portraits yourself sometime in the next couple weeks at:

120 NW 25th St. Suite 203 Miami, FL. 33127

South Florida Freelance Photographer {Editorial}

2010: Through my Lens

So here's what I was putting together that I didn't want to rush. I hope you like & ENJOY!



What a range of subjects! People and their stories intrigue me, as well as music and nature. So what kind of photographer am I? A GOOD one, I'd hope you'd say!

This has been a very special year both personally and professionally. I got married, and photographed many lovely couples getting married including some very close friends! I've said before, I'm so lucky that I get to celebrate my love of photography by photographing those who are in love!

I did my first printed interviews with CityLink Magazine, and New Times. I began freelancing with Broward-Palm Beach New Times.

I met some amazing people along the way and am already busy with projects to make this year even more fulfilling (is that possible?!)

Thank you for you support!

In Love and Gratitude,

Monica

Palm Beach County Photographer: Triple Maternity Session, Cont.

As of yesterday, December 12, 2010 all three babies have arrived from the triple maternity session I did a couple months back!



I wish each family congratulations and lots of love. I hope to photograph the "rocker" babies someday but right now it's a blessing just to know that they've arrived. Special thoughts and prayers go out to the Snow family as they've been on a journey of events since their son Harrison was born. I encourage you read the blog about their story, and keep them in your heart while they overcome what has been placed in their path.

As I was speaking with a friend yesterday, I was reminded of a program that offers support in these types of circumstances for residents of Palm Beach County. Thank you to my friend, Tomas Boiton, for the reminder of Healthy Beginnings. Tomas is an advocate for many great programs in this County and the creator of the company "Citizens 4 Improved Transit."
