Florida Wedding Photographer | Melissa + Matthew

Florida Wedding Photographer | Melissa + Matthew

Congrats to Melissa + Matthew had a fun afternoon Monday wedding. This couple had small hints of everything they loved at their wedding! Disney hints and Doctor Who’s sonic screwdriver were just a few of the details that made it the best day ever for these two! We did their “get to know you” engagement session at Disney’s Grand Floridian, such a perfect and romantic place for their photos. After a sweet wedding ceremony in the Chapel, we had a beautiful day to continue their celebrations in. This couple was so full of smiles and laughs and their day unfolded! As a Florida Wedding Photographer, you never know what kind of weather you will be getting but we got lucky that day! The sun was shining and the temperature was perfect. Melissa’s favorite Disney movie is Tangled, making the purple and gold color scheme perfect for their Happily Ever After! Take a peek at their day below! Don’t forget to leave comments of well wishes, too! 🙂

Central Florida Riverfront Wedding | Sara + Troy at The Estate on the Halifax | Wedding Inspiration

Central Florida Riverfront Wedding | Sara + Troy  | Wedding Inspiration

Wow! Need some wedding inspiration? Started the year off right with one beautiful wedding! The Estate on the Halifax’s location is clearly given by its name. The river that runs between the “barrier island” of Ponce Inlet and Daytona Beach Shores is called the Halifax River. The Estate located in Port Orange right in Central Florida is nested on the western bank and offered a beautiful view for Sara + Troy’s wedding. They decided to have a riverfront ceremony and it turned out amazing! With there being so many locations; The oak tree, gazebo, chapel and even the peninsula (for small weddings) that overlooks the lake, it sometimes is hard to figure out where to have the ceremony. The weather was perfect, a little cold but the sun-kissed some warmth back into you as their ceremony proceeded. It was a flawless day, photographically speaking, beautiful bridal party with a sense of fun and adventure.  I can tell you I was super excited after meeting Sara + Troy on their Engagement session, doing some urban exploring that their wedding was going to be a blast. For a Monday, they kept me on my toes, and there were easily 100 people there until the end! High five to your guests for rocking it out all night! Enjoy the preview! I can not wait to share the full gallery with you guys in just a few weeks!

Check out the Estate on the Halifax Here! Let them know I sent you! Check out Lola Grace Bridal

Central Florida Rustic Family Portraits | Alanis Family

Central Florida Rustic Family Portraits | Alanis Family

Central Florida Rustic Family Portraits have become more and more popular over the past few years. The light some of the Florida sunsets bring make for gorgeous photos for you and your family. I had the pleasure of photographing the Alanis Family during golden hour and the result was beautiful. This family was all smiles from baby Reagan to their golden retriever furry children. Pups are apart of the family, too, so why not have them apart of your family portraits. Despite the rain, having this cooler weather in town can make for a more enjoyable photo session! Update your family photos before this Florida heat makes its way in. Click here to book yours now. Take a peek at Danielle, Brandon and Reagan’s rustic  family photos below!

Fort McCoy lakeside engagement | Alyssa and Brandon Ocala Engagement Photographer

Fort McCoy Lakeside Engagement

Fort McCoy lakeside engagement: I headed over to Fort McCoy for a lakeside engagement Alyssa and Brandon had their lakeside engagement session at their house in the Ocala area.  I started off inside and loved their vintage look! It definitely brought a warm and homey feeling to this particular session. We dared to adventure outside, even in the cold. This was also the first full day of shooting with the new Nikon D850! I wasn’t unfamiliar with the controls but was missing my extra grip as I had on the d4 and Nikon D5 cameras. The dynamic range of the camera was great. The best part of the camera is the shooting speed was clearly fast enough to trail Alyssa and lock focus on her ring while she was walking. The huge size of the files work great for cropping. Check out my review here. I can’t wait to share more images with you all. Please let me know if you have any questions by clicking the facebook link on the right or filling out the contact form.    Take a peek at their lakeside engagement below!  One of my favorite elements of this photoshoot is the warmth of the sunset that came through the trees, the dock, and even a private white sand beach behind their lakehouse. It was truly a fun shoot despite all the cold weather as you might be able to see in the photos (jackets and blankets) 🙂 Enjoy

Thanks for looking! If you want to get in touch, you can do that here. I can’t wait to hear more from you! If you would like to know more about our wedding and engagement packages say hi! <3 I recently was asked why I love doing the engagement sessions. It really has everything with getting to know the couple I am working with. I generally photograph about 15 engagement sessions without a wedding attached to it. But out of the 45 weddings, we had this year all of those had an engagement session. Every time the experience seems to be so much better! Couples have a better understanding of what to expect and the day goes smoother for the wedding day.

Leu Gardens Engagement | Jessica + Brandon

Leu Gardens Engagement | Jessica + Brandon

With warm Florida sun and light on the mind, let’s talk about Jessica + Brandon’s Leu Gardens Engagement Session! This energetic couple decided on a gorgeous and fun place to take their engagement photos! Harry P. Leu Gardens is a fun and beautiful place to explore in Orlando. This park has many trails, luscious gardens, huge oak trees and many other beautiful landscapes that make up a perfect place to take engagement photos. The weather worked out perfect, giving us gorgeous light peeking through. Jessica and Brandon were great throughout their whole photo shoot! Most people are camera shy but they didn’t have a problem! Just look at their natural and inviting smiles!

I love getting to know my couples before their big wedding day. It always takes a bit of the pressure off and makes the couple much more comfortable the day of! Take a glance at Jessica + Brandon’s engagement session in Orlando! Looking forward to their September wedding! Congrats you two!
