Super quick sneak peek of Tina & Steve's Disney Wedding

More to come, but I just couldn't resist a quick peek. Hope you guys are enjoying your Disney-moon! :)

OpLove - the D family

I had entirely too much fun photographing the D family recently! Dad Jeremy is in the army and will be deploying next month, so when mom Rachel called me to schedule an OpLove session I was only too happy to oblige! If you're not familiar with OpLove, it's a great non-profit organization that provides free photo sessions to military families who have a member deploying.

Sweet light and so cute - one of my favorites!


Little Ms. M


Mr. M was a bundle of energy!




We did the session at the beautiful Blue Spring State Park. I'd never been there before and can't wait to go back in the winter and see the manatees!

Thanks so much for a fun session you guys and Jeremy, thanks so much for all that you do for our country!

What's a wordle?

It's a toy for generating word clouds from text that you provide. Here's mine!



Make your own!

Shannan and Matt are in lurve!

A happy couple who are very much in love (that's Shannan and Matt) + a beautiful setting (the Grand Floridian Resort) + (mostly) fantastic weather = a very happy photographer!

I had a blast shooting Shannan & Matt's engagement session this past weekend. We started at the Grand and wandered over to the Poly while shooting and swapping Disney stories. Here's a quick sneak peek from their session!

Matt posed an interesting question - can we somehow incorporate the cool skylights at the Grand? It took a little quick thinking on my part, but ask and ye shall receive!


Super cute!


It doesn't get much more Florida than this! Love this one!


And of course, a little Disney magic!

Thanks you two for a fun shoot!

PS - the Wave was delish! Enjoy it on Wednesday :)

Wiggle Waggle Walk Photos

Oh my goodness, how much fun was this year's Wiggle Waggle Walk? All the dogs (and one cat!) are so cute it's hard not to put the camera down and just love on them all! There were over 40 fantastic vendors there with everything from organic pet food to dog fashions to a caricature artist! I'm not sure how the judges picked the winners of the costume contest - I never would have been able to choose just one for each category!

Here's a small sampling of images from the day, to see more visit the gallery.

Jenny, the token cat of the day!


Didn't this guy realize he was in Gator country?


This little cutie was "security" at the judge's table!


Even the humans got into the act!


I think that using Jedi mind tricks on the judges gives an unfair advantage in the costume contest! Haha!


The lovely Sassy of Sassy's Pet Paradise.













Busted playing paw-parazzi!


And the actual walk which was kicked off by WFTV Channel 9 / TV 27 meteorologist Tom Terry




Too cute for words!


Yup, his name was Oscar! I love it!






I'm not sure how much money was raised in total - I know one group raised nearly $47,000! - but kudos to all who came out and raised money for such a worthwhile cause!

Kim & Mike: Newlyweds

Kim and Mike are such a creative and fun couple, I couldn't wait to photograph their wedding. I love the vintage Florida theme (considering that Mike proposed on Anna Maria Island, I'd say it's pretty appropriate!) and the gorgeous colors they used to carry it throughout the day.





Beatiful flowers by Lee Forrest.


The Albin Polasek Museum & Sculpture Garden provided a stunning backdrop for their ceremony and their reception was at Casa Feliz.



The crew from Busy Brides Wedding Services did an amazing job keeping the day flowing smoothly!

Look how cute these two are!




Mmm.... cake! I couldn't walk near it - it smelled so amazing I just wanted to stick my finger in it! But I behaved, I promise!


Special thanks to my good friend, the talented Suzie Seagraves who second shot for me!

Wiggle Waggle Walk

I'm shooting the Wiggle Waggle Walk 2008 for the SPCA on Saturday. Grab your four-legged friend and come out and support a great cause!

Check back for a sneak peek either tomorrow night or Sunday morning!
