Why is photography important for couples?
.
.
Thamiris and Gustavo met 20 years ago in High School. They went through so many life experiences and growth together, experienced challenges and blessings and now have a beautiful spirited daughter together.
.
.
Looking back at photos and remembering how far you’ve come is such a boost to keep going. All the great times, the obstacles they overcame… and honestly, how good they look together still 20 years later!
.
.
You’re writing your life story every day. Make sure you’re also illustrating it with photos. Showcase it to yourselves, friends, family and the world to see. Or keep it in a special place as your little hidden treasure. Don’t let life slip away. Live it now and document it! That’s history in the making. Your history!

Congratulations to @thamiriskm (my little sister) and Guti Baby (her husband) for their beautiful 20 year relationship and now complete family with my incredible nice! Love you guys and I’m happy I told me sister to go for her best friend at the time! He has always shown with actions she was and will always be his queen for life!

Did you always dream of bringing that main character energy to life? Geeks, nerds, fantasy fans, rejoice! Now it’s your time to shine!
.

You don’t need a reason or excuse to live your dreams! Just go get it! And to boost your confidence, the best way is visualizing that goddess in you and bringing it to life.
.
.
The best way to manifest is to start with visuals! What about a photoshoot in the attire of your dreams? Solo or with your besties… that’s what @hfc_atlanta has proposed to their members. I had the pleasure to photograph their members and have 2 days scheduled for the whole crew.
.
.

.

Here is the truth about lgbtq+ wedding vendors: (click to read caption)
.
We are turned down A LOT by prospect clients that are completely against the community or uncomfortable with it.
Of course, it is not like we would want to work with people who can’t respect and affirm of our communities anyway, but we are business owners that support ourselves, our families and communities through our work. Consider that when hiring your wedding team. Not just aesthetics, but values and lifestyle. After all, we will work together closely to build your best day ever and would you rather get those fake smiles and rolling eyes for months, specially throughout your wedding day or have someone there that actually is happy for you and working hard to provide the best services while seeing it with kind and fun eyes?
.
Pride is important, pride month is great to see who supports and values you. But which vendors are in the trenches, fighting the good fight year around, showcasing love and supporting the same businesses as you? How would you like to be represented and where would you like your money to go?
.
Experience posing and working with lgbtq+ couples is important! It makes all the difference to you and your friends and family! It makes a difference when you see your photos and videos and how you remember your day! Your wedding is not the time to change someone’s perspective, specially someone you’re paying. It is time to feel celebrated and supported, judgement free!
.
We post lgbtq+ clients year around! We value diversity. You’re constantly represented. We won’t use your imagine as a poster promo for pride month in order to look open or make you a “I even have a gay client” type of reference in order to attract more clients. And when I say clients, they really think money. They want your money, like I said, it is just a business for some.
.
To lgbtq+ vendors, it is more than that. It is their life, it is part of their identity. You know, we tend to make it our w
Easter Sunday, working, editing weddings, listening to @beyonce ‘s new album. I couldn’t help but immediately tear up while listening to this song. I had to pause, stop everything and think of my daughters. After a heavy start of the day and realizing a mother will literally come back from the dead if needed to protect her children, this song touched me.
.
.
There is no rest. We know the world can be a cruel place, we know we can’t protect them forever. But they’re little flowers, they deserve a healthy and peaceful childhood. How can people that supposed to love and protect them, inadvertently try to take it away for their own benefit?
.
.
It’s Easter Sunday and I wonder about the pain Mary felt when she couldn’t protect her son. I hope I can gather similar strength to always protect and provide for my children. They are pure energy, love, kindness, laughter, care and empathy. Both have dodged death from the start. Both had a second chance. It’s up to me make this life worth living for them and never forget they need me. I’m gonna be your protector! Thanks @beyonce for the reminder.

Social Media can be so deceiving. Look at these amazing smiling photos! They’re not fake. The smiles are real, the moment is real. This was me last summer closer to my birthday.
.
.
When I open up to people, throughly open up, the one thing I hear is “I don’t know how you do it” or “if it was me, I wouldn’t be able to even (insert most basic action).” Oh and “did you know we nicknamed you super woman”?
.
.
It all sounds nice but behind the smile, behind the jokes and all the giving and working and trying and thriving, I am crumbling. Which is great! Don’t get me wrong. Evolution only happens in dark times and is historically proven. The say “the comfort zone is where dreams go to die” is popular for a reason. I do have a very positive mindset that has kept me going, but being realistic is equally as important.
.
.
But it has been rough. I’ve been blessed with so many wonderful developments and moments and friendships and beautiful children, but my positive outlook on life and people has betrayed me. I used to think we all lived in a My Little Pony type of universe, full of colors and friendships, rainbows unicorns and possibilities. Yet, there is evil out there. The type of evil you see in Game of Thrones or Handmaid’s Tale’s villains evil.
.
.
The brighter you shine, the more they’ll try to eclipse you, sim your light, until it completely fades away. There is no limits to their misery. And this is why I believe in being sunshine when things are cloudy. Shining your light through the rain, creating rainbows, turning darkness into smiles. Happy people have no time to judge others or sabotage others lives plotting petty evil plans.
.
.
But just as we all have sunny days, we face the darkest of nights. Some seasons grant the shortest days and longest cold evenings. And with darkness, comes demons. When we can’t change our surroundings, all we can do is survive, stay strong, get a hold of ourselves and wait hoping the next bright and w
The emotion, the vows, can’t be matched!
Every wedding is different. Every circumstance allows for a different take. No matter what, it is an important moment to keep forever.
.
.
The decision to say YES to your partner is a big one. The universe has to work in so many ways for you to meet, match and decide to come together in this beautiful one of a kind moment.
.
.
For all of that, including for a fun, relaxed wedding day, we must let go of so many expectations and control. Let go of the stress and appreciate the outcome. Every single human being has different perspectives. The way you remember a memory is different than your partner and so is the film maker. We are all focused on different things and have different priorities in the back of our minds due to our roles. So do all guests, family and vendors.
.
.
But the words are there, the moment is still there and capturing different aspects of it to keep that memory alive, remains priceless.

Why hire a videographer? Read more to learn why it is a must!
.
.
🎥 Not having a videographer on their wedding day is most couples #1 regret!
.
.
🎥 No matter if you think guests can capture the event with their phones, will they really? And will it look like this? Do you want them to enjoy the party or stay glued to a screen?
.
.
🎥 Wedding videos may take a long while to get ready, but once you get that special email delivery, you get to relive amazing moments and watch it happen over and over again in front of your eyes. You’ll feel it! You’ll laugh and you’ll cry. It’s a memory you get to hold on to forever.
.
.
🎥 A good filmmaker will work in collaboration with your photographer and both get to capture poses, prompts, scenes and more that they usually wouldn’t when working by themselves.
.
.
🎥 It is an investment for yourself, friends, family and children! Little ones specially loveeeee watching it over and over again. They see their parents as movie stars living a fairytale.
.
.
🎥 It will help your marriage last! No joke! Have you ever caught yourself rereading texts, letters, rewatching videos and looking at photos of your loved ones? In the past, when you miss them, or need a little push to remember why you chose each other, hasn’t it helped? Having a professional wedding video done, can be therapeutic.
.
.
🎥 Modern wedding film is fun! No more 10 hours watching paint dry! You’ll see yourself in a movie trailer like highlight or a music video. Short and sweet. You can also choose to have some key moments in full, like the ceremony or speeches. It’s fun fun fun!
.
.
🎥 You never know what tomorrow brings. Being able to see your person, your guests and family in movement is a whole different experience. Specially when audio is involved and you can listen to their voices. So soothing!
