We went back and forth deciding on a location for their family session and eventually “settled” on doing it at home. If settling looks like this, I’m down! With children this young, it’s always easier to shoot at home! We get those sweet sweet AC breaks, and you don’t have to worry about jumping into jeans in the backseat of your car. Plus, I get to pet your dog. #sonjuphotography #miamishoresfamilyphotographer #miamifamilyphotographer #southfloridafamilyphotographer #floridafamilyphotographer #goldenhour #familysession 
Castles in Coral Gables?! Well, not exactly - but it’s a perfect spot for these lovers as they plan their destination wedding. Who knew Miami was so dang romantic? #engagementsession #coralgables #miamiengagement #floridabride #floridaengagement #floridaengagementphotographer #she_saidyes #theknotflorida #destinationweddingphotographer #engaged #dvlop #thetogrepublic #southfloridaweddingphotographer #sonjuphotography

Lots of summertime family inquiries hitting my inbox lately! I LOVE documenting Florida family vacations and reunions (especially after the what we all experienced last year) and can’t wait to hang with this crew again. ⏱Did you know I don’t put a time limit on lifestyle family sessions? This group had almost 2.5 hours of my undivided attention! And their gallery has all the group shots, family shots, and quirky moments in between. Keeping things breezy (and I don’t mean the 20MPH winds on this day) keeps everyone relaxed and I get to connect and really learn about your family. Anyway, summer’s here. Book your session. #sonjuphotography #floridavacationphotographer #floridafamilyphotographer #floridabeachsession #palmbeachfamilyphotographer #southfloridafamilyphotographer #miamifamilyphotographer #dvlop #thetogrepublic 
If your photographer hasn’t created an album proof, offered prints, or lost their shit when you said you just wanted digitals, they didn’t do their job. You deserve to have nice things. And you deserve to EXIST in print - not JPEGs. But enough with the nagging - how GORGEOUS are these deckled edge prints and print box? If you’re a current client, this very product is available in your online gallery. I think deckled edge (hand torn) prints look best in the linen print box OR framed in a floating frame of your choice. (Pictured: 5x7 Luxe Grey Linen box with white embossing and Deckled Prints) #sonjuprinted #sonjuphotography #printyourphotos #decklededgeprint #professionalphotographer #floridaphotographer #miamiphotographer #palmbeachphotographer 
Airplane hugs + Miami skyline = successful engagement session. Are you ready for your summer engagement session? Let’s get IN the water!

There’s a lot more going on behind the scenes besides making pretty pictures on wedding days and for your family. A huge part of that pie is website upkeep, researching topics/keywords and blogging. I’ve spent hundreds on courses and continuing education to stay on top of market trends and topics. I write and share articles for evergreen content on my website so that I can position myself as an expert in the hopes that I can help couples as they plan their wedding. “Rising Tide Lifts all Boats” is a nice sentiment and all, and the words “community over competition” are thrown around like glitter in this industry. I do help. I support local photographers. Hell, I’ve written email responses for photographers struggling to come up with the words so they can respond to their clients. I’ve referred jobs to others in our network, and have spoken highly of others in podcasts. I’ve let professionals borrow my gear, and stepped in during emergencies. This is not to toot my own horn. I’m big mad. Once again, someone local has lifted copy from my website and is promoting their own blog post with literal paragraphs stolen from my blog. Will we have similar blog subjects? Of course! “How to prepare for your engagement session”, “what to ask during consults” are broad topics, but there are ways to ya know, write your own content and not copy and paste entire paragraphs word-for-word. Anyway. It’s been resolved. Their website host removed the infringed content. I will no longer be sending niceties and warning messages. And I’m going to be very careful when lifting others boats. Plagiarism is theft. (And has nothing to do with this ring shot. It’s pretty tho, yeah?)
