Jenny and Reid's Wedding Part II

We had such a blast with Jenny and Reid's portraits! Jenny sent me a few ideas she had for nontraditional portraits for her bridal party and I was happy to oblige. Jenny looked oh so stunning and Reid looked very handsome. Cute couples make cute portraits!

The reception was another fabulous event. It was also held at The Renaissance Vinoy and was totally stunning. It was a pleasure to work again with Chuck Lewis from Hearts Video and Doug Decker from Grant Hemond and Associates. I have had such a great experience working with those folks time and time again. 

On to the images!

These portraits were so much fun. Thanks for coming up with these ideas Jenny!














Some Details!

Can you tell what Reid likes to do in his offtime?








Party time!


This was a first for me to see at a wedding!

Thanks!

Jenny and Reid's Wedding Part I

Jenny and Reid had a fabulous day! The weather was nice and the decor and scenery at The Renaissance Vinoy were just spectacular. Stephanie Petitta, the event coordinator there is just fabulous to work with. Jenny lives out west so her lovely mother Jane (and my gym buddy) helped plan a lot of the details. She picked great vendors including Laurie Vodnoy-Wright to perform at the ceremony. The flowers were provided by The Flower Centre. The ladies from Cloud Nine Salon did a wonderful job with makeup. I loved watching what Rob Godfrey from Salon Volo did with everyone's hair. 

The scenery at the Vinoy is just gorgeous!










Married!


I'll be posting the second half next week. I'm shooting another gorgeous wedding tomorrow so the wedding season is in full bloom!

Jenny's Wedding Teaser

Jenny and Reid's wedding at the Renaissance Vinoy Resort was truly spectacular. Every detail was just gorgeous and Jenny looked beautiful. I'll be sharing my favorite images soon. Meanwhile, we had a blast shooting some images of Jenny's gorgeous dress, which she was lucky enough to find at one of my favorite bridal shops, Malindy Elene. 

I'll be sharing more images soon so check back. I am slammed processing several weddings, album designs, and working on designing a new blog. Yup. I'm a bada$$. I'm coding the blog myself :) Hopefully it'll be up early this summer.

Thanks!

Amy and Josh's Wedding Part I

The special thing about Amy and Josh's wedding was they had their ceremony on a dock on the Rainbow River in Dunnellon, Florida. The dock is on the property of Amy's grandfather, who passed away a few years ago. Therefore, this wedding was extremely personal and special. I felt so honored to be there to witness and record this special time.

Josh looks so dapper!

I love the simplicity of Amy's gorgeous dress. 

Amy looked so beautiful!

Nici of La Chanson D'Amour set such a beautiful mood. 

Can we say gorgeous?






I'll be posting the second half this week. Check back!

Thanks!

Amy's Wedding

When my friends have asked me how this wedding went, I have been telling them that it's the closest I'll have ever gotten to shooting a wedding out of the movie Steel Magnolias. It was so beautiful and sweet.

I have plenty more images to share, but I wanted to start out with this beautiful, simple image of Amy.



Thanks and check back. I'll be posting more soon!

Stacey and Michael's Wedding Part II

Yay! I'm ready to share the second half of Stacey and Michael's wedding. 

Their fun reception took place at the Waterfront room at Jackson's Bistro on Harbour Island. The light in that room was tasty! Stacey and Michael had a great dj, James King from Grant Hemond! He kept the party going! Stacey and Michael's friend, Kelly, did their cupcake (cake). It looked yummy! Check out her other work at Cakes by Kelly. 

Finally, the party wouldn't have been so great without the guidance and support of Beth from Flawless Occasions. I'm lucky to have to have had the pleasure to get to work with Beth. I hope to do so again! 

Something about this photo makes me smile. It's one of my favorite of Stacey and Michael.




Michael was a fun groom for me. He was open to just about anything :)






After our bridal party portraits, we took a little "photo walk" through Old Hyde Park and we found this cool telephone booth!

The inspiration for the centerpieces comes from "Better Together," by Jack Johnson. There's a line in the song about shoe boxes of photographs of sepia-toned loving. I loooved this detail!






Let the party begin!


Stacey was glowing, simply glowing!


Stacey's mom did the Hora!!! Love this photo :)






I love this photo. Michael's mom was so cute!


Oh no he didn't!


A beautiful ending to a beautiful night!


I'll be sharing some images from Amy and Josh's lovely riverside wedding soon. Check back!
