South Florida engagement photos
that actually feel like you

Relaxed, editorial engagement sessions across South Florida — from $650/hour, and complimentary with any wedding collection

Why couples choose me

Engagement photos
that actually feel
like the two of you

Here's what I believe: the engagement photos you'll actually keep aren't the stiff, chin-down, say-cheese ones. They're the real in-between moments — the two of you laughing at something only you heard, a forehead kiss when you think I've stopped shooting, the walk between one spot and the next.

As a South Florida engagement photographer, I've spent nine-plus years and 200-plus couples learning to make a camera disappear. From Miami to Fort Lauderdale to Palm Beach, we'll go to the places that feel like you — and I'll catch the real thing, never a posed version of it.

Content creation

Made to relive — and made to share

A photo freezes the moment; a clip lets you feel it again. Alongside your gallery, I can create short vertical films of your session — the kind you'll send straight to the group chat, post the day you announce, and still rewatch on your wedding day. Tap any clip to turn the sound on.

The person behind the camera

Hi, I'm Widgy —
nice to meet you.

I'm a photographer based in South Florida, and I've been doing this for over nine years now — a little past 200 couples and still counting. Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Palm Beach: this is my backyard. I know the spots that photograph beautifully, I know how the light moves here, and I know how to plan a session around the golden hour so we're shooting when everything looks its best.

If the idea of being in front of a camera makes you a little nervous, you're in good company — most of my couples say the exact same thing when we meet. Here's the truth: you don't have to be a model, and you don't have to know what to do with your hands. That part's my job. We'll talk, we'll laugh, I'll gently guide you, and somewhere in there you'll forget I'm even shooting. That's usually when the best photos happen.

I shoot in an editorial style — a handful of timeless, intentional portraits and a whole lot of real, unposed, in-between moments of the two of you. And I don't hand your gallery to a stranger to edit; every single image comes back through me. What you see in my portfolio is exactly what you'll get. Your engagement session is also the perfect warm-up for your wedding day — by the time it comes around, being photographed already feels easy.

Comfortable, fast

Nervous on camera? Totally normal. Putting you at ease is the whole job — and it starts the moment we meet.

Always in the loop

From your first message to the day your gallery lands, you'll always know where things stand. No chasing, no guessing.

Edited by me

Every image is edited personally by me — never outsourced, never run through someone else's preset.

Local to South Florida

I know Miami, Fort Lauderdale and Palm Beach by heart — and I'll help you pick the location that fits your two of you.

Don't just take my word for it

I had an amazing experience with Widgy from start to finish. The communication was clear, and the attention to detail, lighting, and creativity truly brought each shot to life. My fiancé and I felt comfortable and confident throughout the day.

They did an amazing job at our wedding. Very nice people to work with — made us feel completely at ease. They are great at what they do. Book them for your wedding. You won't regret it.

Common questions

Everything you need to know

Don't see your question here? Just reach out — I answer every message myself, usually within 24 hours.


Ask a question
How long is an engagement session?
Sessions run one, two, or three hours depending on the collection — which is one, two, or three locations. Most couples choose two hours so nothing feels rushed and you come away with a real variety of looks.
It's $650 per hour, built in three tiers: 1 hour and 1 location, 2 hours and 2 locations, or 3 hours and 3 locations. And if you book your wedding with me, your engagement session is complimentary — it's included in every wedding collection.
Anywhere in South Florida — from Miami to Fort Lauderdale to Palm Beach and everywhere between. The beach, a garden, downtown, your home. If a venue or private location charges an access fee, or there's paid parking, those costs are the couple's responsibility.
Whatever makes you feel like the best version of yourselves. Once you book, I'll send a short style guide and help you plan your outfits — including whether to change looks between locations.
That's the whole job, and it's what I hear most. You don't have to be a model or know what to do with your hands — I'll gently guide you the entire time, and somewhere in there you'll forget the camera is even there.
Engagement galleries are delivered within 2–3 weeks. You'll receive a few sneak peek images within 72 hours so you can share the excitement right away.
Reach out through the form with your preferred date and location. I reply to every message personally, usually within 24 hours, and I take a limited number of sessions each month.
