Megan & Beau: Married! | Orlando Wedding Photographer

Megan and I went to high school together, and though we never spent time together, we knew of each other.  I always thought that she was such a beautiful person, both inside and out, and when she contacted me about photographing her wedding, I was elated! 

The day finally arrived, and Craig and I were ready and excited for it! Megan, her mom, and her bridesmaids were all so calm when I arrived at her house. In fact, I don't think I've ever had such a calm bride before. She was relaxed, smiling, talking softly. There was such a good vibe flowing throughout the entire house. And with 9 bridesmaids, I'm still amazed at how peaceful everything was before the ceremony! 

Their wedding was absolute perfection; from the couple, to the wedding party, to the family, and all of the details. :) And let's not forget to mention the incredible vendors (listed at the bottom of this post). 

Enjoy your sneak peek, Megan and Beau! <3

Maddie's 6 Month Session | Orlando Family Photographer

Jessica and her mom are some of the sweetest women I have ever met! I first met them at Maddie's newborn session, then we met up in Winter Park, FL for her 3 month session, and last week we met for her 6 month photo shoot. Maddie was SO sweet, and sooooo chubby! Chubby babies could quite possibly be one of the cutest things (if not THE cutest) this world has to offer. All I wanted to do throughout the session was hold her and squeeze her, but of course I had to remain professional...at least until the end! :)  We met at Dinky Donk in Winter Park, and Jessica came fully prepared with everything you could possibly need for a beach-like photo shoot! I had such an amazing time with these three, and at the end I was finally able to scoop Maddie up for some hugs. <3 Day. was. made. 

Enjoy the sneak peek!

Look at those eyes! <3

Charlie & Angela: Engaged! | Orlando Wedding Photographer

The way I ended up doing Charlie and Angela's engagement session is pretty interesting to me. They actually won our grand prize at the Perfect Wedding Guide bridal show not too long ago. The funny part is that I went to school with Charlie, and of the hundreds of brides at bridal shows, I happen to know the one who got picked! I actually hadn't seen Charlie for a very, very long time until recently. We photographed a wedding where he was the best man, and I met Angela that day too. Weeks later, Angela called me and said "guess whaaaaaat?" :) I was so excited to do their photos! I love meeting new people constantly (part of why I absolutely love doing wedding photography!), but occasionally I get to photograph people that I already know, and it feels great to be able to capture some of their memories through photographs for them. 

At the end of their engagement session, which was in downtown Winter Garden (one of my favorite locations!), they made a quick trip to go get their pooch, Autumn. She is such a sweet little pup, and a real beauty too! She gave me some really great shots with that cute little face of hers. 

Enough talk, more photos. Enjoy! :)

Frances & Johnny: Married! | Orlando Wedding Photographer

Frances holds a special place in my heart. Not only is she one of the sweetest girls EVER (seriously, even when she was stressed before the wedding, she was still ridiculously sweet!!), but she and I went to high school together. We spent time together here and there, and I even remember working on a science project at her house one day. We lost touch in person, but thankfully Facebook exists and kept us connected! Every once in a while I'd peek on her page to see what she was up to. Either she was modeling (yep, this lovely lady was even on a billboard for Ron Jon's!), surfing, boating, acting, or just loving life in general. When I saw that she was engaged, I really hoped she'd contact me about doing her photos. I was ecstatic when she did! I knew that she'd be so much fun to photograph. She's beautiful inside and out, and she just shines in the photos she takes. 

Enter Johnny: handsome, sweet, and so madly, deeply in love with her! I didn't meet him until the wedding day, but when he entered the room, you could tell he was so proud to soon be marrying his best friend. The great thing (other than them getting married of course!) about it all is that they're bringing a beautiful baby girl into the world this December! Her name is Stella Rose, and I cannot wait to meet her! 

And a big "thank you" to my lovely second shooter, Missy, for helping me at this wedding! <3

Anyway, enough talk and onto the good stuff. Enjoy the sneak peek! 

If you're a family or friend of theirs and want to see your photo booth pictures (or the rest of their photos, for that matter), simply ask them for their password and gallery information. :)

So ethereal <3

I don't know what it is about the one of his hand on her, but I am in love with that photo! 

Another one of my favorites <3

A natural beauty with a lovely little baby-belly 

These two are so madly in love...I could photograph them all day long! 

Bring on the party!

This sequence of the guys catching the garter cracks me up!
