I look at Marie-Claude and I see beauty, strength, determination, compassion, love, honesty, complicity and a new friend. She is the owner and founder of McFitness Motivaction and truly an amazing woman. It has been a pleasure and honour to create a collection of pictures for her yoga studio.
P.S.: if elegant nudity is not for you, please skip to the next post.
They are friends, they are beautiful, they are independent, they are ambitious, they are French, they are caring, they are proud, they have curves, they are women.
Sophie, my fabulous "sister-in-law" wanted to offer a glamorous gift to her friend Helene and arranged a photo shoot to capture her beauty on the pristine beach of the Turks and Caicos. Paris could have offer picture-perfect backgrounds, but there is no way you can pose in nude under the Eiffel Tower in January!
A journey to the Turks and Caicos Islands is filled with exciting travelling experience and great moments. To treasure their precious memories and share them with family and friends, Jennifer and Jeff book an island tour with Attimi Photography: we discussed the locations, the session' style, the details and how the most amazing portraits will be displayed on their home's walls.
It's always fun to play, pose, break the rules and enjoy a stunning afternoon in Provo!
A baby will make love stronger, days shorter, night longer, home happier, clothes shabbier, the past forgotten, and the future worth living for. In Italian, giving birth is called "Dare alla Luce" (giving to the light) - I love this expression as it's symbolize the miracle of life.
Trina and Denzel welcomed to the world baby Dreya only a month ago... she is tiny, delicate, pure, adorable. Even while I'm looking at her pictures I feel like whispering, afraid to disturb her peaceful sleep...
I have a passion for finding beauty in others and helping them see it too... well, with Tara and Mitch I didn't have to look very far! This gorgeous couple recently got engaged (congratulations!!!) and seized the opportunity to create a collection of romantic pictures during their trip to the Turks and Caicos.
We had an amazing time during the shoot... perhaps I should fly to Canada for their autumn wedding next year :-)
Eloise: 10 days old, tiny, adorable, beautiful and so sweet.
I've been looking forward to this session since I photographed Heather's bump in January. From a perfect mom (and dad!), the cutest little baby girl came to life. I could have cuddle her the all day!
2 more days and I'll be in Vegas to attend WPPI -Â the premiere industry event for photographers and image-makers specializing in the creative and business aspects of wedding and portrait photography. Educational seminars, a major trade show, thousands of professional photographers and a series of networking events. I can't wait!!! I'll come home with so much "photographic energy",
Villa Alamandra welcomes its guests with a hundred foot long bridge suspended amid tropical flowers and the most amazing view of the turquoise waters of Providenciales... a perfect location for a beautiful family portrait.
It was a great pleasure to meet and photograph John, Joanne, Katherine and Melissa and create a collection of pictures to treasure forever. The girls are growing fast - old them tight while you can!
A couple of weeks ago, Juca contacted me to schedule a portrait session to celebrate life - I LOVED her first email:
"Okay its time to tell you my story!... I've been admiring your photos for some time now.
My name is Juca, and I reside on the island of North Caicos. The 25th of February is my wedding  anniversary, and I'm 6 months pregnant. I got married in Jamaica on a lovely February evening, in the beautiful sunset. There was no professional photographer, 50% of the attendees all had iphones. And thats the only family portrait we have. My husband, son and I are all over due for some professional photos."
No work, no school, no stress... sunshine, ocean, fun... the elegant Villa Renaissance, the pristine Grace Bay beach... it sounds like the perfect recipes for a great vacation, isn't it?
The Riegler family took advantage of this special occasion to update their family heirloom with a new collection of pictures - it was such a pleasure being their photographer!
