Shanna & John

Shanna and John met me at the Sanford Marina Riverwalk this evening for an engagement shoot. This is another school teacher and Shanna teaches the 5th grade. God bless our elementary school teachers. I could not do what they do and they deserve all the accolades and recognition they can get. It was a bit windy this evening to start, but once the wind died down we were able to get some really fun photos and capture the essence and playfulness of the couple.

Elie'se and Mitchell






What a difference a week makes in health and sky. Last Tuesday I had a 102 fever and had to cancel the shoot. Well, a week later I felt much better and the evening was gorgeous...beautiful sky, cool temps, and a very fun couple. Elie'se and Mitchell are getting married in June and we were able to photograph their engagement photos at Crane's Roost Park. Even with all the people out walking it felt like we were the only 3 people there. We can only hope for a sunset like this on their wedding day as well. We achieved these gorgeous sunset shots with one vivitar, pocket wizards, and a nikon D300/D700. Thank you for a memorable evening Elie'se and Mitchell and I look forward to your wedding day.

Shannon and Grant






Shannon and Grant were married at Paradise Cove, a gorgeous spot for a wedding in orlando. We had a picturesque day and they were so easy to work with. Aloha productions did all the catering and it came complete with a show of hula dancers and fire twirlers. How much fun! As you can see they had wonderful time and we had a beautiful sunset to cap the evening off. Also, a shout out to my buddy Kevin Keelan who helped me with the shoot tonight. Thanks Shannon and Grant for the pleasure of celebrating your wedding with you.

Amie and Lee






Another former student of mine, Amie Cox, just married Lee Holtzman on March 6th in San Antonio, FL. I never knew there was another San Antonio other than Texas. The wedding day was absolutely gorgeous and the couple had a great time with the entire day. They got married at St. Anthony's and the reception was at her grandparents amazing home, which you can see in the photos. Edmund from Rhodes Studios joined me in doing all the video throughout the day. It is always special to celebrate a wedding day, and what an extra honor to do so with a former student. Thanks Amie and congratulations to you and Lee. I am also unveiling my new logo for the first time on the blog. These were done by a very talent graphic designer, Jason Simpson.
