About
12 years ago I had big dreams of being a back up dancer for Britney Spears. I was a super dancer but had a serious directional issue when it came to distinguishing the difference between left and right. I’ve also always longed of moving to New York City to be a top fashion designer, an honest politician, and at one point I even thought about starting my own electronic band.
Hi, I am Flavia… a wedding photographer. Trust me I know! I had no idea either!! One day I am photographing bands, testing models and the next I’m at some lame wedding wearing black pants and heels…ugh!!
5 years ago I had been to more funerals than weddings. First, I had no idea of the proceedings of a traditional wedding ritual. Second, churches have always made me fall asleep. And third, I’m the kid who refused to eat Doritios due to how loud they crunch in your head. Now picture me snapping 300 frames in pure silence when I hate making noise.
It was 2 years ago that I took photos of one of my best friends wedding in Jamaica. Okay, now I am a result driven individual and I can honestly say it wasn’t the free trip to Jamaica but the good results of a series of weddings that really inspired me! Heck, I thought its not bad money lets try a few more.
It’s been a couple of years. I have no idea still which way is left and I still sorta hate weddings. But. I loveeeeeeeeeeeee being around all those adorable old people in their best clothes. I could do with out the little kids running around but the open bar cures all! Just kidding!!!
The more I shoot weddings the more I find myself shipwrecked with my love. It’s as if it’ will be the last thing I need to do in the world, or the last thing that I will ever artfully put together. I just want the bride to be nice and to not have parent-zillas running around and were good!
