Coral House New York Wedding Kimberley and Brendan
Last year, I got three phone calls for a May 2nd wedding. What a popular date I thought at first, as I got more details, it turned out, it was the same wedding. When I finally meet Kimberley and Brendan, I felt like I knew the family already, and we were immediately hooked. They had their wedding at the Coral House in Long Island New York. Kimberley and Brendan are such a lovely couple, and their love shinned on every step of the way. Congratulations! Kimberley is one the sweetest brides I’ve... Read The Rest →
10 ways to keep children entertained at weddings
As a photographer, and a mother of a twenty month old, I love photographing children at weddings. They look super cute on their grown-up outfits, they’re the first ones on the dance floor, and they are simply fun to be around and photograph. On the other hand, it is important to remember that above all, they are children, and their needs and schedules are different than ours. They get tired, hungry, bored and when that happens, they will not be happy, and unhappy children not always cooperate the way adults want, which is... Read The Rest →
New Jersey Sweet Sixteen – Camila
There is something about taking Sweet Sixteen Pictures that I simply love. I ask them about the type of photography they have in mind, their interest, and their likes. Normally, they don’t say much, so I try to put myself in their shoes. I remember when I was fifteen, I didn’t much to say to old people. Yeah, thirty something felt so old when I was a teenager. So my teenage memory tells me: Come on lady do you really expect me to say that I want to look like a... Read The Rest →
Happy Good Friday and Happy Birthday J
After giving it much thought, I decided to publish this blog. I hope I don’t offend any of my fellow wedding photographers, or any photographer for that matter. But again, I said, I had given this much thought, and decided to post it with a Free Lightroom Preset. Recently, our second photographer, Jarlen, and I were having a discussion about retouching and post processing photographs. I believe most wedding and event photographs can benefit greatly if they process their pictures either in Lightroom, Aperture or Photoshop. He is just starting... Read The Rest →
Connecticut House for Sale – Real Estate Pictures
I was eighteen years old when I met my dear friend Paolo. I started working for a high profile businessman from my home country. Young and with little experience of Corporate America, I looked up to Paolo and learned so much from him. Not only because he is one of the most intelligent and honest men I have ever known, but also because he was willing to share his knowledge. When people were betting the market was going up, he was ahead of the crowd and was warning it could crash. Recently,... Read The Rest →
Wedding video in Miami – Documentary style wedding video
Ever since Gaby and I founded The Wedding Central, and started creating Wedding videos and wedding photography, we have always wanted to create Documentary style wedding videos. Through the years, since most of the requests were for a more traditional approach, we opted to follow the trend of a more classic wedding video, with our touch, but with the same structure. Usually, I begin with a musical recap with wedding pictures taken by Gaby or images from the actual wedding video. Then, I jump right to the ceremony, the reception, and the wedding video...

Fairchild Botanical Garden : Ayaiza + Frank Day After Wedding Pictures
Ok, so I have to admit, I was a little nervous about this photo shoot. We arrived at the beautiful Fairchild Tropical Botanical Garden in Coral Gables, a little bit before four o’clock. From the moment I saw it, I fell in love with it. The scenery was simple breathtaking. The kind of place I could roam for hours, and not be bore about. I was starting to see the possibilities. Then, reality hit; we were told the garden closed at 4:30PM, so I had a little more then half... Read The Rest →
My two cents for DIY brides – Part 1
Ok, so my friend’s sister comes to visit me to discuss my wedding photography services. Suddenly, I have a flashback to when I first saw her. She was a little girl at the airport on her way to the big apple sobbing on my friend’s arms. The little girl turned into a beautiful and wonderful woman, and I’m thrilled to see her getting married to a very good man. And I’m honored that she is trusting me with her wedding photography. We sit down and start discussing her wedding plans. She... Read The Rest →
