Candice and Mark's Pink Vintage Wedding

Candice and Mark were hitched in early November at The Atlantic Resort and Spa located in Ft. Lauderdale Beach. The bride to be ---what a classic beauty with her Allure lace vintage dress and also the groom to be --handsome in his tailored gray suit. What an emotional day it was, especially when Candice's Father locked eyes on his daughter as she stood anxiously awaiting his arrival into the room, yes, it was tears for all!! Their ceremony overlooked the Atlantic Ocean as the alter was decorated with an arrangement of candles, so romantic it was! As Candice walked down the aisle to Michael Jackson's "Human Nature", Mark stood there with his jaw dropped in absolutely awe. As the sun set to the East, I captured an amazing sunset with both Candice and Mark along with their wedding party. The reception was even better, the DJ played nothing but classic 80/90's jams - it was great seeing everyone dancing to the music. Truly a beautiful wedding --- I'm so blessed to have been able to capture their memories! Congratulations to Candice and Mark - I wish all the happiness in the world!!!!

Baby Ayden

Welcome to the world Baby Ayden!!!!! Of course, I'm at a loss for words at how much I adore this sweet little bundle of joy :+) Ayden's parents are very dear friends of mine and I couldn't wait to meet their new love when they asked me to photograph his newborn pics. Ayden's Father is a LT. Firemedic and what better way to introduce him into the world of firefighting! Of course, there is Ayden's Mother...she has the patience like no other as she soothes her 1st born in her arms into a deep sleep for most of the images. I loved every minute of Ayden's newborn session ; brought back so many memories of when my first newborn came into the world. Congrats on your newest love and  thank you for the wonderful opportunity to capture Ayden's first month of life!

Peter and Laura's Glimmer Wedding

Little did Peter and Laura know that years later, their high school relationship would be the beginning of lifelong commitment. The couple were wed at the Holy Name of Jesus - such a beautiful church with vaulted ceilings and stained glass windows.  And what would a wedding be without an awesome wedding party that was well over 17 people -- the most I've ever shot before, whew....!

The wedding reception was held at the Hilton Melbourne Rialto Place and was beautifully decorated by Sophisticated Gents and Petals Design Center.  Both Peter and Laura had the opportunity to see the reception room before their guests entered.....those first reactions are priceless! No detail was forgotten which is included The dance floor was monogrammed with their initials, Tiffany blue uplighting with silver and white accents, candy/dessert buffet, Tiffany blue signature drinks and even a monogrammed ice luge!   I big thank you to my 2nd shooter, Matt --thank you for all of your hard work!

Thank you Peter and Laura for an amazing wedding - I'm blessed to have been apart of your wedding day!  I wish you both a lifetime of happiness -- xxoo
