Hello ! Welcome to Sì l’Amore Photography, I am very happy that you are considering having me capture your precious moments of life. A photo session with me is not about looking only at the camera and smiling tight smiles the whole time. There will be those images, of course, but my desire is to capture YOU as you are. I want to take pictures that give you great emotions. Those images are the ones that are taken while you are truly yourself. While you enjoy your loved ones. While you embrace each other, talk to each other, play and laugh together. These are the images that speak to me: images taken during those everyday moments when our lives unfold, when love surrounds us and when we are simply and beautifully ourselves. Your love for each other and your raw emotions will be the light for me to follow. The ink that I will use to paint my pictures. I love falling in love with the pictures my clients allow me to take of them. I can’t wait to fall in love with your story!
My name is Kendra, I was born in beautiful Napoli, Italy. When I met my husband, he was an American performer living in Europe, traveling from country to country and I decided to leave my life as I knew it and follow him. It was during our happy life in beautiful Portugal and then Lanzarote, Canary Islands, that I decided to dive into my photographic lifetime passion. Then our sweet daughter was born and we moved back to Italy. There I decided to transform my hobby into a profession and I created my first photography project which gave me the opportunity to meet and share deep emotions with many families who picked me to capture their memories. In 2018 we left Italy and moved to sunny Florida. Life had its own plans for me, but now I am finally retaking my life in my hands and Sì l’Amore Photography is born. I am a Family, Maternity, Newborn Lifestyle Photographer in the Sarasota, area. I am blessed to be live so close to the ocean (my favorite place on earth) and to have the opportunity to use the beach as the set for the majority of my sessions.

Session
success tips
ENJOY THE MOMENT and RELAX and let your
Story
unfold.
Every image I create wants to tell a story, YOUR story. I want you to just Breathe, Embrace the Joyful Moments and the Storms (if there will be any), and allow me to capture all those Feelings and Details that it is YOU and your LOVED ONES. Let me tell
Your Story.
I take a natural approach when photographing you and your family. My commitment is to capture the real moments, the hugs, the kisses, the embraces. Throughout your session, I will guide you through relaxed poses, and direct you and your family while letting the story organically unfold. That is why I will be telling you NOT to Look at the camera al the time :) It’s absolutely natural to want beautiful smiling pictures of your family, and of course we all hope our children are in great moods, sometimes they are, but sometimes they are not. And that’s okay too, sometimes they don’t want to look at the camera, and guess what, that’s okay too. I have several tips and tricks when photographing children/babies. The best thing we can do, is to just go with it and let it happen. Because the MOMENTS will happen, we will be ready when they do, and they will tell YOUR STORY. Who you really are.
