Kicking off the week by sharing a beautiful engagement session I photographed last week. I’ll be documenting Leigh Anne + Sean’s Highland Manor wedding later this year. This couple is from NYC and we’ve been going back and forth via email for the past year. When I heard that they were in town finalizing their details, I jumped at the opportunity to photograph them. We shot for about 45 minutes around the historic area of Church Street, one of my favorite locations to shoot e-sessions. 
The English Garden is one of the cutest little wedding venues in Orlando, and I love its intimate backyard wedding vibe. I was more than happy to spend the day with Priti + Jack on their wedding day there. Here are a few images.. Had a wonderful time shooting Fabiola + Jerry’s engagement session in Downtown Orlando. Looking forward to photographing their wedding in a few weeks. Hello! I’ve been slacking on the personal posts here on the blog, because I’ve been so busy shooting weddings. It’s spring wedding season, which means back to back weddings and as you can see from my messy hair bun below, I haven’t had a free Saturday to go get my hair done! lol. In my spare time, I’ve also been taking a few workshops geared towards photographers. I think it’s important to always learn, grow and push myself as an artist. I was watching a workshop last week by the amazing Sue Bryce and she shared the following poem. It’s a poem that she has etched at the front door of her photography studio in Australia. The poem moved me so much that I wanted to share it here with you. I’ll post it below and then get back to editing! With love – Luz Virginia LOVE AFTER LOVE – Derek Walcott The time will come and say, sit here. Eat. all your life, whom you ignored the photographs, the desperate notes, A few images from Tomi + Sean’s LOVELY wedding at Medieval Times! Today I get to share a few of Riette + Ian’s images from their wedding at The Courtyard at Lake Lucerne! Happy Monday! Spring wedding season has kicked off and I’m thrilled to share Kristina + Anthony’s Langford Park wedding.

when, with elation
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror
and each will smile at the other’s welcome,
You will love again the stranger who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you
for another, who knows you by heart.
Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,
peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit. Feast on your life.
