Quinceañera in Tucson: Karina

Karina had her Quinceanera celebration on March 26th. She added a personal touch to every single aspect of her party. She carefully reviewed every single detail and was involved in the whole process and planning. She recorded a speech that was played during the reception to thank God, her parents, her family and all her friends who have been part of her life and were there to celebrate with her on that special day. She is a talented girl, very sweet and super beautiful. She is an excellent dancer along with her brothers and cousins. They gave a very impressive improvised show, while all of the sudden they made a circle on the dance floor and stepped up to dance.

These are some of my favorite shots during that day, I'm sure you'll get to see what I just shared with you, only this time, through my images...

Disneyland Hotel-Quinceanera for Brianna

Brianna had her Quinceañera at the beautiful Disneyland Hotel in Anaheim, California. Her parents and madrina helped get ready at the hotel and then we took a walk around to do take some photos around once she had her Cinderella dress on. This was a real dream come true. right before the ceremony an amazing Cinderella Carriage came to pick her up to take it to the ceremony site within the Hotel's premises where all the guests and family were waiting for her. Like a true princess, she walked down the isle with her Chambelan all dressed in white. The ceremony was full of emotions and then we headed to her reception. Brianna a very talented girl performed for all her guests with two surprise dances. A Tango, the first one, and a Middle Eastern Dance the second one. Very graceful... I love when the girls dedicate their time to learn something while their are growing up, whether is dance, playing an instrument, decorate, singing, a sport, anything. Women have to be multifaceted. It is not possible to go through life and live to step in front of a mirror and look pretty. There must be something else. There must be intellectual beauty, not only physical. So I really enjoy when girls prepare a surprise dance or some kind of performance for an audience. Brianna looked gorgeous and her proud parents were speechless to see her become such a gorgeous young woman. On the outside and the inside. Her family and friends danced all night and even performed themselves an awesome display of Michael Jackson's top hits with an impeccable choreography. I'm sure Brianna's XV will be unforgettable. I enjoyed this Quinceañera very much, I loved the family who are truly fine people, as much as I enjoyed working with my friends and colleagues Tacho and Rolex. These pictures were the story of a true princess: Briana. Enjoy.
