Atlanta

From its skylines to the beautiful parks and quaint town squares, Atlanta offers something for everyone! Start with shots of city life and end with a stroll around a historic square. Piedmont Park, Virginia Highland Neighborhood and Downtown Decatur are a few of our favorite spots.

Miami

Between its beautiful historical elements, modern parks and gardens, and fabulous city life, Miami is sure to inspire you for a creative session! Head to Vizcaya Museum & Gardens for that old world feel, or maybe Miami Marine Stadium & Key Biscayne Parks is more your style. Perhaps a bright and airy beach session at South Pointe Park is calling for you instead!

Tampa

If you simply can’t choose between two locations, you could always choose one for your engagement portraits, and the other for your wedding! In Tampa, we love a classic and airy sesion at Treasure Island Beach or a romantic afternoon at The Florida Botanical Gardens. Who says you can't have both?

Houston

Houston is perfect for the couple that just wants to have fun! You could have a blast exploring the Galveston Island Pleasure Pier or even hop in a vintage airplane at Sugar Land Regional Airport -- the sky is the limit!
