The University of Florida is lucky enough to be receiving this beauty in the fall! Meet Valentina, a gorgeous graduate from Lake Mary High School. She was a part of the Class of 2018, and she is eager to get her very exciting future underway. At Lake Mary, she’s involved in dance (one of her many passions), and has worked as a nanny. I’m not sure if she has any spare time, given her busy schedule, but she enjoys Netflix, being with friends and family, and reading a great book when she does! As soon as we met, I know that we would get along beautifully; she’s such a fun and lovely young lady, and was a delightful model to work with. She also has a mile-wide smile that lit up every shot, and her description of herself as “carefree and sassy” was extremely accurate. She has a whip-smart sense of humor, and we laughed a ton as we traveled around looking for the perfect locations. We settled on some beautiful, modern and urban/industrial settings, which really showcased her trendy style and impeccable fashion taste! She listed Sophie and Trey (local store) as one of her favorite places to shop, and added that summer is her favorite season to dress for.
Valentina is part of a very large, tradition Italian family, and so she visits them often in New York City. Her family is very important to her, and she speaks about them with great fondness. One of her favorite vacations was an European cruise they took together in 2012. Travel is something she hopes to do more of soon, and this beauty hopes to tackle some big goals in the next five years; riding an elephant, going on an African safari, and skydiving. Her friend Sophia referred her (for which I am so grateful), and she wanted senior photos that were “interesting and creative,” adding, “I wanted to get beautiful pictures taken that really expressed my carefree and fun personality. I had never had professional portraits done, but I had seen many beautiful photos of my friends that Linda had done.” Congratulations, sweet Valentina!
