24 in 4
I don't know about you, but sometimes I just do not have time to update my blog. Life seems to come fast and too many other thing get in the way of posting new weddings on my blog. As the title of this entry says. I have been privileged to photograph 24 weddings in the past four months. All of them have had their own special moments from fun getting ready to crying at a ceremony to a brother or sister singing with the band, I have had a blast with each couple, but is has been a bit crazy. 11 of those 24 came in the month of May. I don't remember May very well, other than I was finishing up school, while shooting, while editing, while trying to be a husband and father to three beautiful women in my life. As time has past I am caught up on editing, discs and albums delivered and I am enjoying a much needed rest break. It is a blessing sometimes to be off to recharge the creative batteries and be with family. I have to learn how to say no, but when a couple loves your work and I'm available, I can't help myself. I want to be a part of their special day and capture it on camera. Every laugh, hug, kiss, tear, family song, first dance, and special toast, it is why I love being a wedding photographer. I think my favorite part of the day is after all the formals are shot and I'm with the bride and groom taking photos of just them before the reception begins. It is a special honor to be alone with a couple just minutes and hours after they have become one. Those times are sacred and the ones I love photographing. They are tremendously in love and filled with emotion at that moment and preserving that emotion is what I am called to embody in their photos. What a great honor and tremendous responsibility. As in love as they might be, my prayer for each couple is that is that very moment in time they love each other least. For with each day I pray their love grows as they get to know one another better over the next years of their life. I'm going to post several images below and list where they are. These weddings have been from Portifino Bay to Disney wedding pavilion to Rollins chapel to a destination wedding in Cancun with Jennifer and Erik. What a blast that was! Over then next couple months I'll reach a new high in weddings for the year and I'm thankful to God for all the blessings He has given to me through photography. Enjoy and I'd love to hear back from you if you have taken the time to read this and view some of the photos.
Champions Gate Resort
It was a beautiful day at Champions Gate Resort with Jeremy and Rachel Bastacky. We had a great time and got some "wow" photos. The night time sunset would never happen without off cameral flash. That vivitar 85HV was perfect.
Military weddings in back to back weekends
Jaye and Emily had their wedding at Patrick Air Force Base in Cocoa. It is indeed a special time to be a part of a wedding with our military men and women. After the wedding we stopped at the beach and the rain was just about to pour down. Look at the really dark clouds over the air force base water tower.
Army Wedding - Kevin and Hillary had enough time to have their wedding and then drive to duty in Washington State. Kevin is a former Oviedo High School alum and he and the guys had a great time. Hillary you look fabulous.
From New York to Walt Disney
Robert and Melissa are from New York, but their first date and engagement both happened at Walt Disney World. It was only appropriate that they get married there so they did. Along with family and friends they arrived at the Magic Kingdom during the week of tropical storm Fay. They had a great week despite the rain and the wedding was indeed a magical time. One of the best parts of the evening is when Melissa's brother got on stage and sang with the band. It was was really cool to see everyone gathered around as he sang and the couple watched in great enjoyment. You can see the dancing was alot of fun and the 5th avenue band had them dancing all night. Great job guys. Thanks for allowing me the honor of being with you on your wedding day.
Celebration Country Club in May
Celebration country club with Joey and Katie. They are such a fun, nice couple. Kevin Keelan and I shot this together and we had a blast with them then entire day. I really enjoy being with couples like them.
