My favorite from Kristy & Matt's Engagement
Kristy & Matt Engagement

Ok...so I have been waiting forever to shoot a wedding with a dog in the bridal party...and finally I get one, and look how cute the dog is!

I think they said they are having her as the flower girl/dog...if I remember correctly. Can't wait.

And yes, I am looking forward to shooting the bride and groom as well....but I am sorta excited about their dog :)

Anyways, we had a great time shooting on the beach, (finally a good weather day) and the images looks great.

Thanks to the best man/dog sitter as well keeping the dog busy while we finished the shoot.

Boudoir Marathon HOT!

Andrea and I just got back from the South Beath Boudoir sessions on Saturday and Sunday....and it was HOT! Well, actually I wasn't there during any of the shoots (Andrea and her assistants had all the fun shooting the sessions) but since I had the weekend off I sort of relaxed at the Marlins game and the beach where it was hot (sunburn followed as expected).  The feedback from Andrea was great and she is super excited about scheduling the next Boudior marathon. We are thinking about one in December....but want your input if your interested! It's called a marathon, but really nothing like it-- its your own 2 hr + session plus hair and makeup...so its all about you (and nobody else) for like 4 hours----so its not a photoshoot with girls waiting behind you ready to get their turn. Exclusive to you!  

Andrea is working on some blog images over the next few days from the shoots...so check back in the next day or so for that and let us know if anyone is interested in the next marathon!

Debut of Save The Date Films

**To Play the film, click on the video link above**

For a long time, I have wanted to get this type of video concept out and available to our brides. Save the date ideas are usually attributed with a phtoograph of the couple, a mailer, or a magnet----well not anymore!

In addition to our new custom save the date cards--we now have a brand new Save the Date film. This very unique "engagement video" of the couple is shot, edited, and narrated by hollywood voiceovers, to create your very own "save the date trailer" that is sent to your guests many months before the wedding to let them know you are engageed and the wedding date is set! But this is something your guests will just LOVE, not just slap on the fridge. 

Erica and Damian had the honor of being our first blogged Save the Date film, and their's turned out fabulous! I will be filming their wedding in May, at the.....well I'm not telling! You are gonna have to watch the trailer to find out.

Beyond the super cool film, you also get a custom DVD case design that totally looks like a blockbuster movie, and the overall appearance of the DVD and the film will set the precendent for the wedding day, letting your guests know they are in for a lot of fun at your wedding!

If you have any questions about our Save the Date films, email me. It's an awesome concept, and the final product is just too cool. You can do it way before the wedding day, and its just a few hours of fun shooting...so its much more casual than any kind of shoot on the actual wedding day. Check it out by clicking the video link above.

Valerie's 6 Month Session

It is such a joy to watch babies like Valerie grow. I can't believe she is already 6 months old! She just gets more adorable everytime I see her and I think this has been her best session yet! I can't wait to see her again in another 3 months!

Elle & Conner's Portrait Session

Well the last time I worked with Elle it wasn't quite easy... she wasn't so sure she liked my camera or me for that matter... and I'M FAMILY! These are actually my cousin's kids. This time I have to say she was a complete ham (as you can see)! I couldn't believe the difference in her personality since I had seen her last! Plus her mom Michelle just happens so love shabby chic style as much as I do and brought my favorite dress of Elle's. Also Conner made it a point to let me know once again that my studio was much smaller than the last one they used to go to, haha.... gotta love family! I can't wait for them to come back for Christmas pictures!

Kacy & Brett's Engagement Session

Kacy and Brett are such a great couple and have been together for some time. I shot their engagement session right before we left for Europe and I have been itching to blog it ever since! As usual The House of Refuge made for the perfect beach spot, I will say that it is very rare that I go there and it isn't just beautiful. I am so excited for Kacy and Brett's wedding, I know it's just going to be amazing!

Back from Europe!

Hello All! We are finally back from Europe and back into the swing of things. Thank you to all of you who were so patient while we were away. We had a great time and I can't wait to share some of the pictures we took. Unfortunately we were not able to get alot of both Ryan and I since most people didn't speak English (surprisingly).... or maybe they just pretended not to. Anyway it was hard to get people to take pictures of us. For any of you whom have never been to Europe... boy do I have some stories! If your ever bored or making a first trip to Europe just email me and I will tell you all about it! I have SO many new things to blog its not even funny so stay tuned for some really cool stuff. I will be trying to update the blog the rest of the week to show you all of the new shoots we've had. I am so excited about where we are headed within the next year I could just burst! We are still in the works of developing the plans for our brand new studio, and I can't wait to show everyone! I hope everyone is doing well and I will be back later with some new images to show!
