Paula + Brannen

Sometimes the best sessions are totally not what I had planned!  We started out at Selby Gardens and I had all these amazing ideas, and then the storm rolled in!  Paula and Brannen love the beach and the storm had already passed off Lido beach so we headed over there.  It ended up be even better than what I had planned:-)  The wind and dramatic sky along with Paula and Brannen's sweet personalities and love for each other was literally the perfect combination:-)  It doesn't really get any better than that.  I am so looking forward to their wedding this September at the Ritz Carlton! xoxoxo

Laura + Kenny

Laura and Kenny were totally up for my randomness, why wouldn't you want to have your picture taken in front of a junky old sailboat?:-)  It was beautiful golden sunlight but HOT, thankfully the nice people at Starbucks let us cool off and enjoy a cold drink.  Laura's cute flirty pink dress was the perfect color and we even found matching pink flowers for a ring pic.  So fun working with you both:-) xoxoxo

These are some of the coolest cuff links I have ever seen.  Nintendo and Playstation (I think:-) game controllers!  Kelsey and Steve are both huge Noles fans, so it was only fitting that Steve's cuff links were Chief Osceola.  I know this because I also have a die hard Florida State fan living in my house:-) The girls wore navy and each had their own style of yellow shoes.  Kelsey's something borrowed and blue was her great grandmother's garter and six pence from her wedding.  Steve's sister gave him a very important gift for he and the groomsmen to enjoy while getting ready.  I love how the bright yellow was such a nice contrast to the deep blue.  Their guests enjoyed mini tacos, tomato caprese, and tomato soup shots with grilled cheese and then headed into the reception for dinner to dance the night away.  They even got a special congratulations tweet from a former Noles Quarterback!  Congrats Kelsey and Steve it was amazing to be a part of! xoxoxo
