Photography Love

Now I tell you, this is the thing I love about Pinterest. 

I came across this beautiful image that someone I follow had pinned on one of their boards.

Gorgeous right? Can't believe someone gets to actually work here!
So I clicked on the image and it took me to the site where the picture originated from.

It was a photographer whose work, primarily weddings was just stunning.

So I kept flipping through and thought when (??) I get married,

I would love this photographer to record the day for us but I just bet that she lives overseas.

I kept looking through and no, she's Australian ... 

but wait it gets even better ... 

she's from Perth - her studio is even in the same neighbourhood that I live in! 

Love how pinterest can connect you when you don't expect it. 

So with my little story, I am compelled to share with you some beautiful images from photographer

Hotels to stay *** Hoteis para ficar - The Breakers, Palm Beach

 The Breakers Hotel it's an amazing oceanfront property in the heart of Palm Beach with stunning vistas of the Atlantic Ocean and lush colorful gardens, a mediterranean-style Beach clup reminiscent of St. Tropez, one half mile of private beach bungalows and nine distinctive restaurants. It is in fact a unforgettable escape for families in a magnificent italian-Renaissance design. I had it on my favorites list for like ever! and it did not dissapoint my expectations. The place was pretty busy with a weedding and an doctors conference but filled with beautifull people.

O Breakers Hotel é uma incrível propriedade à beira-mar no coração de Palm Beach, com vistas deslumbrantes sobre o Oceano Atlântico e exuberantes jardins coloridos, um club de Praia estilo mediterrânico de St. Tropez, cerca de 800 metros de bungalôs de praia privada e nove restaurantes diferentes. É na verdade uma fuga inesquecível para a família num nagnífico design italiano-renascentista. Há muito que eu o tinha na minha lista de favoritos  e acreditem que não decepcionou as minhas expectativas. O Hotel estava bem cheio com um casamento a decorrer e uma conferência de médicos anestesistas, mas cheio de pessoas bonitas, carros fabulosos e .

Gotta tell you some more about the Gold Room named after its gorgeous diagonally paneled gold ceiling. The Gold Room has contains a sequence os portraits of the Renaissance rulers and explorers of the New World. And It made me very proud to find 4 Portuguese among them. There are some pictures below to prove it!

Sobre esta sala, a sala dourada, nome dado devido aos maravilhosos detalhes do tecto, todo em painéis diagonais em talha dourada.  Tenho de vos contar que imediatamente por baixo dos ditos painéis está uma fila de retratos de figuras da Renascença e exploradores do Novo Mundo, a toda a volta da sala. Fiquei muito orgulhosa de encontrar entre eles, 4 Portugueses. Vejam as fotos em baixo com a prova! ;)

The hotel is simply fabulous and I could not resist to peek the wedding photos that was being held in the main ball rooms, during our stay and believe me, it is worth peeking!

O hotel é simplesmente fabuloso e eu não resisti em espreita as fotos do casamento que estava a ser celebrado numa das salas, durante a nossa estadia e acreditem que vale a pena espreitar!

Até Amanhã
