There’s something extra special about photographing someone you know outside the lens. I met Francesca at the gym - strong, focused, and full of grit. So when she asked So You by Erica Sue to document her PhD graduation party, I was deeply honored. While I was helping my son move into college (cue the proud tears), my incredible team stepped in to capture Francesca’s milestone with the same heart and creative vision we bring to every shoot.
Held at the Grand Floridian Ballroom in West Pembroke Pines, the celebration was a beautiful blend of elegance and joy. Francesca radiated confidence and warmth, surrounded by loved ones who’ve cheered her on through years of study, sacrifice, and growth. From heartfelt speeches to spontaneous dance moments, every frame tells the story of a woman who earned her place at the top and celebrated it with style.
It’s moments like these that remind me why I do what I do. Whether I’m behind the camera or cheering from afar, it’s about preserving the stories that matter. Francesca’s is one I won’t forget. As a lifestyle portrait and event photographer based in South Florida, I specialize in capturing heartfelt moments across Broward, Miami-Dade, and Palm Beach counties—preserving your story with authenticity and care.
