Yellows, whites, blues, and greys match really well together. This is probably the most asked question I get when planning photo sessions. Rightly so! You’re packing for your trip, you want to make sure you bring what you need, I get it! So here are a few suggestions with examples of what you can wear to make your session yours. WEAR OUTFITS THAT CAN ALSO DOUBLE AS VACATION OUTFITS The last thing you want to do is bring EXTRA luggage. I would suggest you bring outfits that work with your vacation wardrobe as well as for our session. When we’re out on the beach, keeping it light usually help ..read more

Family Portraits - Hyatt Ziva, Puerto Vallarta

I love it when families coordinate colors/styles in their wardrobe! It can be hard to think of what to wear for a session while on vacation. My best recommendation is that you take something you can wear for the session as well as by the pool or on a night out. I also recommend that you book your session two to three days into your vacation so you’re not so sunkissed and this way you can wear the outfit for the rest of the vacation in stead of trying to keep it clean the whole time. This family was so fun, thank you so much for having me! The Hyatt Ziva is also a very beautiful location for po ..read more

Most of the Nuevo Vallarta resorts have strict policies on letting outside vendors in, and so we have a couple of options when it comes to this issue. One, we can meet beachside of your resort OR we can meet somewhere that offers a little color, vibrancy, and also beach access - the Nuevo Vallarta Marina! It’s about 10 minutes by taxi from pretty much any resort in the Nuevo area. It has a cute sign, cute shops, color, a little greeny, boats, and also beach access close by. It’s a great mix of all good things. It’s perfect for families because kids can explore and run and get their wiggles out ..read more

So your WHOLE family is going on vacation and of course it’s the ultimate perfect moment to have portraits taken. But how does it work?!

TIP 1 Dress in similar colors but not too matchy-matchy. Each smaller family can coordinate further but it’s good to have a color scheme that everyone can wear so that it l ..read more

With kids, it’s difficult to know how they’ll react to a stranger with a camera ? It can go any which way and this is why I super recommend letting them play and getting to know me. Or rather, used to me lol. It’s much easier to go with the flow and let them play. Plus, images like these are just GOLD ..read more

Stella scheduled a portrait session for her mama and I was loving both of their styles so of course we had a full on session with both ladies! Walking around and chatting about the town, where people are visiting from, what they like about Mexico I love it all! Also finding little spots with color and that iconic Mexican charm is the best!

I LOVE photographing large multi-family sessions! I have such a great time and here are a few tips to help you have the best session possible! Tip 1: It can be a little stressful gathering everyone especially little ones. It’s good to have eaten before hand or have snacks and drinks available during the session. Tip 2: Let me do the wrangling and posing to keep it flowing quickly as sometimes the kids can get restlses waiting their turn. This way I can work quickly and easily if I’m the only one directing. Tip 3: We’ll start with the whole family and then quickly go through each family to make ..read more

Quick session with the Molina family! Here is what Lynnea had to say about the photos: I LOVE our photos! Thanks so much for doing these for us. It's always kind of scary choosing a photographer with no personal recommendations to photograph your family (especially in such a special place!) but you really came through! I don't think I could be happier. It’s always a joy when my clients LOVE their photos and trust in me even from far away! The session was absolutely fun and I enjoyed playing with this family! The ocean was really showing off this day too! View fullsize View fullsize View full ..read more
