Rebecca and Mathew’s Villa Woodbine Miami wedding day was, in every possible way, a dream. From the moment I arrived, I knew this one was going to be special. The elegant, old-world charm of the venue paired with their relaxed energy made it feel more like an editorial shoot for Vogue than just a wedding day. Honestly, more couples like this please!!

Editorial Meets Effortless

Rebecca's portraits were unreal! She carried herself with this timeless grace, and even the candid moments felt like they belonged in a magazine. The getting-ready shots were filled with quiet moments of reflection. Light streaming in through tall windows, and her mom gently helping her with final touches. It felt intimate and grounding before the day took off.

Meanwhile, Mathew looked sharp in his white jacket, standing at the window with that classic, contemplative groom moment. It’s one of those portraits that feels both stylish and sincere—my favorite combo.

Their ceremony took place under a canopy of trees, twinkle lights woven through the branches, and florals that somehow managed to be both bold and romantic. The way Rebecca walked in with her parents, eyes locked on Mathew, was such a powerful moment. And let’s talk about the crowd—everyone was dialed in, truly present. It made for some of the best emotional reactions I’ve ever captured!

The Dinner Party You Wish You Were At

Dinner was set outdoors under a sparkling chandelier, and the reception setup was chef’s kiss. Long tables, a sea of candles and colorful blooms. It was a dream. Rebecca standing on the table during setup was iconic—no notes. Their first dance under a disco ball lit up the room in every sense. These two just radiated joy and connection, and it made photographing them such a natural process.
