Tropical Clementine & Eucalyptus Themed Brunch Baby Shower at the Colony Hotel in Palm Beach, Florida

On March 2nd, 2024, I had the pleasure of capturing Allison’s tropical clementine & eucalyptus-themed baby shower. It was a breathtaking event at the iconic Colony Hotel in Palm Beach, Florida. White, scalloped umbrellas filled the scene with bistro lights hanging above. White orchids, lush green monstera leaves, muted eucalyptus branches & bright orange clementines filled the tables. The focal point of the event space gave a tropical bohemian vibe with rattan chairs, detailed signage, and eye-catching balloon art.

The stunning mother-to-be: Allison wore a blue, smocked dress with the cutest blue shoes! The brunch baby shower was filled with beautiful smiling faces from around the globe—all there to shower Allison with love as she prepared to welcome sweet baby Kai! It was a gorgeous day in Palm Beach for her outdoor brunch baby shower! I was honored to document the elegant affair!

Allison, wishing you all the best as you step into this beautiful new season of motherhood! Thank you for the pleasure of capturing your stunning baby shower!

The Muth Family | Worth Avenue Family Vacation Portraits

It was a pleasure capturing the stunning Muth family portraits during their vacation in Palm Beach! Their Worth Avenue vacation portraits we relaxed, candid & joyful. It was a cloudy and slightly rainy Summer day, but that didn’t stop their session from being anything but sunshine! Worth Avenue cleared out because of the weather, leaving us with clear sidewalks and pathways which is always a plus in my book!

Most people get nervous about the rain when it comes to photo shoots, and some rainy days definitely require rescheduling but if there is only a bit of light rain or a small passing shower, it might make your session even dreamier! There is something magical about Worth Avenue right after the rain clears. The way raindrops fall from the buildings, the sidewalks glisten & the birds come out chirping. Simply one of my favorite things. That’s how this session ended, we caught a passing shower in the middle of our session but it passed in about five minutes, and because we were in Worth Ave. with plenty of coverage, no one was soaked! It was a perfect reflection of this gorgeous family session!

Muth Family: It was a joy to work with you all! I hope you love your family photos for many years to come!
