Virgin Island Locations

My heart belongs to the US Virgin Islands – it’s where I’ve chosen to call home with my husband and children and a place that allows me to thrive creatively, taking incredible photos of beautiful, loving couples. The USVI’s enchanting blend of stunning waters, vibrant coral reefs, and soft white sand beaches offers an idyllic tropical paradise that captures my heart and those who visit. The warm, welcoming culture and the laid-back island lifestyle provide a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of mainland life, nurturing a sense of peace and well-being. Living in the USVI means embracing a life where nature’s beauty is your daily backdrop.
I may call Saint Thomas USVI home, but I am just as ecstatic to travel to the neighboring islands of Saint John and Saint Croix for a slight change of pace and scenery. I have met and photographed so many wonderful people. Just say the word – I’ll pull my camera gear together. Are you ready!?
