Sun-Drenched

    Recently went to cocoa beach for a fun beach photoshoot with one of my favorite models Stephanie Jerez. If you follow this blog you know that she is in a lot of my photos. So once again we teamed up to make this shoot happen. It was a beautiful/ hot day, but we had so much fun running around and getting the shots. Also with us was another photographer Usman Butt from AhmadPhotography. All I can say is that we had a blast.

Free Spirited

 

Last week I had the pleasure to work with Stephanie Jerez. We’ve been planning to shoot together for a very long time and it finally happened. I was very excited to collaborate with this beautiful lady because she has such an amazing personality and fresh face that I knew she was the perfect model to portray my vision for this shoot. She arrived at my house at about 9am and from there we started to put together some of the outfits that were going to work perfectly. Then came hair and make up, she has beautiful long hair so there wasn’t much to do and I wanted the hair to be loose. She did her own make-up, I didn’t want anything too drastic just something natural that would look great with the carefree look I had in mind. Carefree but still beautiful.  The idea for this shoot came from my love for freedom and being comfortable. Also from the bohemian/vintage style I’ve been seeing all around lately in festivals such as Bonnaroo and Coachella  just to name a few.  This style has made comeback into the 21st century and I love it.

We arrived at our first location around 11am and the sun was already very high up in the sky, so trying to shoot with the sharp/hot sun was a bit tough but everything came together. We then drove to our second and final location and it was beautiful  so close to nature and a boardwalk, it was perfect. There was a lot more shade at this location which made things way easier it was still hot Florida weather, but we still had  a lot of fun. Music was a big part of this shoot, we got to relax and have a good time while taking the pictures. Music truly made this shoot a lot more fun and enjoyable it made me forget about the hot weather.

Here are a few of my favorites.

Classy

 

Had an amazing time shooting with this beautiful girl. We’ve been planning to shoot together for awhile and something always comes up that it never happens so finally after almost two years since our first shoot together, it finally happen. Can’t wait to shoot with her again. My living room has some beautiful lighting that all the indoor photos were taken there and the outdoor ones were taken around my house. It’s such a beautiful location. It’s been pretty cold but the weather was perfect that day.
