Anniversary Photoshoot with Linda & Marv
Meeting in Piazza Santo Spirito
I met Linda and Marv for a photoshoot in Boboli Gardens to celebrate their anniversary. We began the shoot by meeting in the center of Piazza Santo Spirito in Florence on a misty September morning. I always feel bad when the weather isn’t perfectly sunny on a day of a shoot because I believe most people expect to see nothing but sun when they visit Italy. However, the cloudy skies…
It’s always an adventure when I get asked to do a destination wedding shoot at a Tuscan villa. I’m never quite sure what to expect when I put the address in my navigation. Sometimes Italian roads aren’t exactly, well, roads. The destination however, is almost always worth the bumpy drive. This time was no exception.
My eyes lit up when I saw the gorgeous old villa surrounded by fantastic gardens filled with flowers and stone aged by time. Marissa…

They were happy to try out all of my pose ideas and made each one their own. We met each other in front of the Gates of Paradise by the Duomo and slowly made our way to Ponte Santa Trinita to end the shoot.

It was another beautiful day in Florence, Italy. I happily made my way up to Piazzale Michelangelo to meet the Behnken family for a one hour photo shoot in the area. I was put in touch with this beautiful family by Jennifer Cowden, an Italian travel specialist from Antico Sole Italy. Setting up the shoot and getting in touch with the Behnken family was a breeze thanks to Jennifer.
After a brief hello and getting to know one another,…

Lifestyle Product Photography in Florence, Italy
This past January I had the pleasure of photographing Jose-Noel Rocha, creative director and lead designer for J.L. Rocha Collections. Jose-noel immediately struck me as a person who knows what they want and has the skills, personality and talent to get it. He explained to me his role in the company and a little about each product and then we quickly got to work.
We met in the morning by The Gates of Paradise in…

Falling in love in Florence, with Florence, over and over again! This beautiful couple met me in the afternoon in the heart of the historical center for an anniversary shoot. We made our way from piazza to piazza while I snapped candids of stolen kisses and inside jokes.
After an outfit change and just before sunset we hopped into a taxi and made our way up to Piazzale Michelangelo to watch the golden Florentine light disappear…
