Sparkles and Satin and Everything Nice

 

What makes a woman feel beautiful? That was the question that started my brainstorming when I sat down to design the Beautiful Woman Red Dress Portrait Session. I'm in my 40's...a mom of three boys...a working woman since I was 15...i consider myself a typical woman...so it was me who I asked the question  to...I wrote down all the things that answered that millenial aged question...Here's my list:

A Red Dress

Sparkles and Satin

 Blush Lip Glosss

 Guess Sling Back Red Shoes

J-Lo Hair

Diamond Stud Earrings

Hipster Jeans

Velvet Flowers 

Peacock Blue Silk

Lace Over Skin

Black Eyeliner and Crazy Lashes

Auburn Red Hair...Just the right color red

Velvet Tufted Couch

Chandelier

Chiffon in the Wind

My Simple Gold Wedding Band

My Husband

and of course, Victoria Secret! 

It's funny how when we women are young, at our most physically beautiful...we are so self critical...we have so many things we pick apart with our appearance...then as we get older...wiser...and maybe still not so happy with our appearance..we at least wise up and appreciate our good qualities more...hopefully. That is the main idea behind my Beautiful Woman Red Dress Sessions...Since I really believe that AC...I hope to show each woman what is most beautiful about HER!

Every woman deserves to feel beautiful. Please forward this blog  to someone you feel  should see how beautiful they really are... and contact us at our portrait studio to arrange a complimentary consultation for a Beautiful Woman Red Dress Session.

Beautiful Woman Portraits by Merritt Island's Gioia Photography

Every woman deserves to be Beautiful! That's how I feel. It seems life has a way of wearing us women down. Our days get filled with responsibilities of life. As women we take care of all our loved ones; our husband's, our children, our parents, our in-laws. We appear last on the list; if we appear at all. Before you know it, it seems we are no longer identified by our self, but more by titles: mom, wife, daughter. "Every woman deserves to be beautiful" is the epiphany behind Gioia Photography's Beautiful Woman Red Dress Portrait Sessions. 

 

It's a portrait session where YOU get to concentrate on just you. You have the opportunity to remind yourself of who you are as a woman. First we pamper you with very talented stylist and makeup artists who know how to bring out your most beautiful features. Every one of us has something beautiful about us; it is my desire as an artist to showcase those features and create a gorgeous portrait that decades from now you will be compelled to repeat Rose from the Titanic's famous quote: "I was quite a dish wasn't I?"

Recently we had Jackie come in for a Beautiful Woman Portrait...a wonderful lady...a mom...a wife for decades...When she picked up her framed wall portrait, after she wiped her tears...she exclaimed joyfully, "Im HOT!" I have to say as an artist...that her response fed my artist soul. That is what I strive for with every Beautiful Woman Red Dress Portrait. It really is a gift that keeps on giving, because every time she looks at that portrait, she feels beautiful again!

Sherri visited our studio not too long ago as well. She epitomizes the phrase, "empowering women." And keeping true to her beliefs, she decided to indulge herself in a Gioia Photography Red Dress Portrait Session.  She said this about her session with me, "She captures your essence and inner beauty like no one else. She is gifted and truly creates "Memories in Art". Her signature "Red Dress" photo session is something every woman should do for herself...I love mine and I've never felt more beautiful. I am a "raving fan" of Gioia Photography!!!"

No Tome for Sick Days

No Time For Sick Days at our Merritt Island
Portrait Studio :)

 



 

I know all of you are just as crazy busy as I am.
Our lives are filled with homes to care for, children to raise and work or
businesses to run...and everything else under the sun to take care of...so when
we get sick...it can feel like the end of the world...I really just do not have
time to be sick! Period! But for some reason...some how, sickness finds it's way
into my calendar anyway. It's not all woe is me though, because thankfully I
have Alexander Fleming to thank...for discovering antibiotics! Of course as I
get older...it does seem to take a bit longer...but they do work...So though I
may be on sick leave for the next day or so...I am looking forward to getting
back on the giant ferris wheel of life...by Wednesday...Thursday at the
latest...surely This little z-pack will work it's magic by then. See you all
soon...hopefully.

smiles, Yvette

courtyard as Cafe Margaux in Cocoa Village at 262 Brevard Ave. Ph. It's run by

when this foursome came over and whipped up some awesome hair at our Ladies Nite
at the Studio in November...If you are in need of that beauty shop appeal...with
a high end sleek environment...give the girls a call....321-634-5988 Ask for
Aimee, Mandy, Courtney or Amanda.Based on the quick and
gorgeous hairstyles they were pullin off at our event...they really
should re-name the shop to the Little Miracle Shop of Hair! Check out the adorable photographs we took at our Ladies Nite at our Merritt Island Portrait Studio. I know I have been all over Brevard County in search of awesome hair...and I found it with this adorable salon. 

 

 

Having fun with my new discovery

LIke I said...I know most of you have figured this out eons ago...but this is awesome brand new to me...It works right into my desire to simplify...simplify...simplify...Also I wanted to post about our awesome Cocoa Beach Chamber Leads Club, called Contacts Plus. We hosted the New Partner Reception and it was a rousing success! I had the assignment to put together an awesome slideshow featuring all the members and their businesses. Igot the great idea to start offering these slideshows as part of our Promotional Edge Sessions for local small businesses...Local Small Business Commercial photography is HOT right now...and I am actually lovin it...every session is SOOOO different...and challenging as an artist...Last month I had the privilege of photographing the surgery robot at Holmes Regional...then a really nice person and  dentist, Dr Hilary Prill  and finally a beautifu lady, Pamela Marticke from The Avenue Viera. It doesn't hurt that I am currently creating the photography for the covers of three local magazines...and I might add...three of the BEST magazines in Brevard: County Florida 

Space Coast Medicine http://trendmag2.trendoffset.com/publication/?i=60047&page=1, 

Brevard County Mom's http://brevardcounty.momslikeme.com/members/homepage.aspx 

and WINC (Website coming)



 

WOW it works!

Wow that is way cool...I know I am an old lady when
I get excited that I can blog from my email...and it publishes both to the blog
and Facebook! And it added the photo too....Speaking of...isn't she an adorable
little stinker....That's Victoria.



 

Doin a little Test

So I am on this simplify...simplify...simplify
kick....and part of that is automation...so today I am trying out this handy
little feature that my blog company offers...I can email my blog entry...Huh! I
wonder if I can upload photos too?
