Avalon Park Engagement Shoot: Stephanie & Chris

I met Stephanie a ways back at a Chipolte and we talked about everything for way over an hour. It was such a great conversation that I could think of nothing better than shooting her big day with Chris. But… before the big day out in Indiatlantic, we all met in Avalon Park to shoot their engagement photos. We had such a hot October and November that they had moved the date back a few times for better weather, so when we finally did meet it December it was cold. Not just cold by Florida standards, but cold. Ok fine, it was probably 50 degrees but with the wind chill there was times in which we all thought better to be outside and finally ducked inside a Barnies for some coffee. Once we got warmed up we headed back outside to finish shooting by the setting sun. We had a great time and it left me excited to shoot the wedding just a few short weeks later. I will post the wedding soon… but man was that awesome, too!!!

Erin and Justin: UCF Engagement Shoot

Erin and Justin are at UCF 90% of their lives… or so it seems. Between school, work, and teaching, it was a natural idea to shoot their engagement photos there. So, with out further delay, here are some of my favorites of shooting an eShoot at the University of Central Florida.

Maitland Arts Center Wedding: Falicia and Michael

Falicia and Michael had one of the most unique weddings I have shot. The ceremony and reception were both at the wonderful Maitland Arts Center. Their ceremony started at sunset and was absolutely lovely and fairly traditional. However, the reception… well that was more of a big party than a wedding reception. They didnt do much of the typical wedding reception events and instead opted for a party/family get together with a Pacific Ocean flair. The food, decor and entertainment were all typical of a Hawaiian Luau. They even had live music, Polynesian dancing, the Warrior dance and a Fire show. It was an amazing experience, one that I wont forget anytime soon!!

Thank you so much for Falicia and Mike for letting be there for your big day!!
