The Garcia Family

I love the Garcia family!  I love their adventurous spirit.  I love how they share life with others.  I love how they love God.  I love how they are not normal.  I love how they deeply love each other.  I love how they inspire me.  I’d go anywhere with them.  I am blessed to call them friends.

Lucy {Central Park NYC}

It’s a SPECIAL occasion when I get to shoot along another photographer!  This happened when I met up with AMBI with Aniville Daniel Photography!  We kicked it up a little bit and made our meeting place in CENTRAL PARK of NYC!  Ambi loves to photograph dancers and her model for the day was LUCY who was not only BEAUTIFUL, but amazingly GRACEFUL and FLAWLESS!  Thank you, Ambi, for your FRIENDSHIP and our time together was such a FUN, creative GIFT from ABOVE! :)

Hawaii {North Shore, Honolulu}

Words cannot begin to describe my first visit to Honolulu.  Thank you from the bottom of my heart to my friends for sharing life with me.  It was seriously a taste of paradise.  If you ever have an opportunity, you should go.  Don’t hesitate, just go.
