Andrezza | In-Studio Maternity Session

The good feeling when clients trust us to help them to preserve memories of special moments in their life is priceless. When Andrezza was only three months pregnant, and called me to share the news about a new baby I was very excited. By now, I had already shot their wedding, the “big bro’s” few birthday parties, and the phone call also was to ask if I was available to shoot her Maternity Session, few months ahead. How awesome? They are clients, friends and also fellow .

The time finally came and she was looking for something clean and intimate, so I decided not using props, but focusing on capturing this family’s sweet love, flowing by the expectation of a “new princess in the house”; the “little sis” that will change their lives forever.


They will need piles of diapers, lots of “pinks, crowns and feathers”, but not worry about spending, what matters most they already have and that, for sure, as the quote I love, “money can’t buy”.

Andrezza, Norman and Nick, Thanks for one more time letting me be part of a magical moment. Can’t wait to meet baby Ava Grace!

BeBlessed!

Paulinha | Portraits on a Magazine

Toda Paula Fernandes é linda. Todas as que conheço, sonhadoras. Essa, acabou de completar 13 aninhos – acreditem se quiser!
E como toda adolescente, sonhava em um dia achar sua foto estampada em capa de revista. Bem, eu estava no Rio, com minha câmera, e o desejo de fazer um sonho realidade, “a la Beria”. Here it is pretty girl! :.)

BeBlessed!

Unplanned – Blessed! – Family Pictures

This was my Easter gift! Right before going to church last Sunday, quick minutes of rare pictures together that filled my heart with gratefulness. We were happy; we were matching; we were making memories. I captured sweet images of my loved ones; Joy captured mom and dad laughing, holding hands, loving each other. All unplanned; all perfect. All I needed.

May family always be our safe haven :.)

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. (Jer.29:11)”

Be-Blessed!

Grace that warms the soul

You know those cold winter days when we awake in the thought that “summer will come never”, making us wanting to be back to bed and sleep like bears hibernating through the first day of Spring, at least? I had a lot of those. So many that made me sick and blue; taking from me the pleasure of doing things I loved most, as “to photograph”. I was so worried about the cold that I ended up “cold”. My creative vision was cold; my smile was cold. I just wanted to sleep, then stopped seeing the beauty within the simple and amazing demonstration of love God makes me see everyday. I didn’t want to see “any pretty in the ugly winter days”. I forgot about the Creator. But , who am I again?

By His grace, in one of the cold mornings, reading my devotional book, I was reminded how small I am: “What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. (James 4:14)” That cheered my heart instantly. It felt like God, again, whispered to me that, despite the weather, the changing moods, the circumstances, He’s a lovely father that prepares lots of surprises for me, the little mist, too see. What a privilege!

These following images are from that morning. I got to finally leave the home and went to a place I love for a few minutes. There I prayed.
And I remembered that snow melts. Remember some of my favorite quotes. Remember that the Lord is the one who warms my soul.

BeBlessed!
