Imagine yourself sitting next to your loved one as a super 8mm film flickers to life, as it begins to cast it’s warm, golden hue across your living room you settle into each other’s embrace. Each frame dances with a soft grain, adding texture to the memories it holds, not just any memories, they’re your most treasured ones; the highlights of the happiest day of your life; your wedding day.

“Arlene was incredible! She was so communicative and supportive throughout the entire process, managing planning photos at both the venue and our first look event. She kept us so organized throughout the day, which we especially needed with our huge wedding party and family. Her pictures were phenomenal - EVERYTHING we could have hoped for and more. We truly cannot recommend Arlene more, she captured our dream day beautifully.”

“We had the pleasure of working with Arlene for our engagement & wedding photos and I cannot express how thrilled we are with her incredible talent and professionalism. From start to finish, she exceeded our expectations in every way.
From my very first interaction with Arlene, I knew she was the ONE! Finding a photographer in Miami can be like finding a needle in a haystack, but she immediately stood out from the rest. She had a very personal touch that other photographers lacked. She is very easygoing and had a soothing demeanor. She also did everything she could to make sure we were happy with all the shots.
Throughout the wedding day, she seamlessly blended into the background, capturing candid moments and ensuring that every important detail was documented. Her calm and collected demeanor helped alleviate any potential stress, and she navigated through the day with grace and expertise. I’m trying to plan another photographer-worthy event just so I can work with her again.
Thank you, Arlene, for preserving the magic of our wedding day in such a stunning and heartfelt way. We are beyond grateful for your incredible work!”
