Aimée and Brad's wedding.

They have a love for the water (and this is the understatement of the year) so it was perfect for them to get married on the Schooner Freedom. Aimée is my friend, and the gallery owner at my favorite beachy art gallery in St. Augustine, High Tide Gallery and Brad is the man who swept her off her feet. I am so happy the two of them found each other and had such a beautiful wedding day surrounded by their families and friends. I am so honored to have been a part of their wedding day (on my birthday, March 11th no less)!

Liz and Mike

It was a beautiful night under the stars with twinkling lights to brighten their paths (and their photos). Set in the courtyard of the Lightner Museum, this intimate wedding took place on a crisp, cool evening in late November. Liz and Mike are a sweet couple who met during military training. Their careers led them together but their love for each other will keep them united.

Presh and Tommy.

They had a wedding with personal details that came together to make this one of my favorites of all time. Earlier this year I had lunch with Precious and went over some ideas for her big day. We talked about using rose petals to blanket their portraits, colored uplights to surround their reception room, and other visions that would make their day one of a kind. Seeing her visions brought to life was really spectacular! It was clear that a lot of planning and teamwork from friends and family members made this day a reality for the two of them. I have a feeling their guests will remember this wedding for a looong time!

Congratulations to our friends Precious and Tommy!

As they walked down the aisle her dad looked at her mom as Precious looked at her groom :)

The bride and groom performed a ritual foot washing to remember how Jesus washed his disciples' feet - a symbol of humility and respect. Pretty cute feet too!

I LOVE these images. I would love to see a huge canvas of the first one on their wall.

Flowers and fish... a beautiful combination. Also a very sweet first dance.

Debbie and Tedd

He proposed at a vineyard in Maryland. She said yes. The rest is history :) Debbie and Tedd got married a few weeks ago in St. Augustine at Trinity Episcopal Parish with a beautiful reception that followed at The White Room. We had the privilege of shooting the photos and video for their special day.

Sidney & Sean

We met Sidney through a college friend, roommate, and bridesmaid of mine, Sarah. She is a girl full of ideas and inspiration. We knew her wedding would be one we'd never forget. I was excited to find out that they chose a garden to hold the event and that we'd be a part of this beautiful day. Dunaway Gardens was the setting of this fairytale wedding. Congratulations you two!

The dress.

Katie and Mike

Katie and Mike's beautiful wedding started with Katie getting ready at the Hilton Bayfront. There was an amazing four post bed which showed off her hot pink shoes quite nicely :) Then we headed over to the ceremony at the Lightner courtyard - a beautiful backdrop as always. After ringing the wedding bell and shooting portraits it was off to The Bayview Room for more celebrating! Here are a few of our favorite shots from the day.
