I am back! Confused? Here, let me explain the Spark Notes version… My little family and I moved to Orlando in March of 2020. As we all know, the wedding industry took a bit of a hit at this time and I was in a brand new city so I used this as an opportunity to pursue teaching. By early 2021, I became a full time instructor and secured a position as a high school photography and art teacher. Although I was still photographing 20-30 weddings a year (as compared to 40-50 full time) I ceased pursuing, advertising, blogging, and social media. After 14 years of photographing weddings, I was definite ..read more

I was so excited to work with Brianne and Matt for their wedding at Cypress Creek Farmhouse! This is a brand new farmhouse venue in the Orlando / Central Florida area that was built with so much heart. The owner, Ty, and myself used to work alongside together at Deer Creek Country Club in South Florida for many weddings. We coincidently moved to the central Florida area around the same time and now I am so happy to work many future weddings at Cypress Creek Farmhouse! This beautiful bride had the most adorable daughter who was an outstanding flower girl. Their families were filled with so much ..read more

This beautiful family and I have been pairing up for years for portrait sessions ever since their wedding day! I was so happy to hear from Tami about capturing another family session at Dubois Park with another one on the way! The boys cooperated so well throughout the entire shoot (especially when I said “smile for ice cream!” —it worked!) and they got to enjoy some ice cream afterwards ..read more

I was so pleased to hear from the bride, Ariel, that she wanted me to capture her wedding! The big day was postposed from 2020 to 2021 and they went from having a large party at a ballroom to a very intimate event at the Historic Maxwell Room in Fort Lauderdale, Florida! This was my first time at this beautiful hidden little gem of a venue and I was excited to explore it. My favorite part of their wedding was that all of their bridal party were of all of their nieces and nephews! It was so beautiful to see how many kids there were running around and having so much fun together and I know they ..read more

One of my biggest feel-good moments is when a bridesmaid of one of my previous weddings contacts me and tells me they want me for their wedding! So that’s why I had the pleasure of capturing Nicole and Ryan’s on my old stomping grounds of Fort Lauderdale. We woke up bright and early to make our way to Riverwalk in Las Olas and they were setting up for the Earth Day festival there. I am looking forward to their Boca wedding in February ..read more

SURPRISE MARRIAGE PROPOSAL ALERT! Oh my goodness I don’t know how much my heart could take. Literally. So here’s the scoop… this was my first surprise proposal ever where I would have to hide and catch it all. Brett called me and told me that he plans on proposing to his girlfriend, Brianne, at the Summer Bay Orlando Resort where they were vacationing. I’m thinking… wait a second, I’m going to have to hide my big butt behind a tree somewhere and sniper this whole thing? What if I miss? What if I can’t find them? What if she suspects something? I didn’t necessarily have nightmares but I did lay ..read more

Oh. My. God. You guyssss!! I am so excited to show off Karina and Brandon’s wedding photos and post-wedding session! I had the pleasure of photographing their engagement session almost a couple of years ago now at Tree Tops Park. They told me that their wedding theme is enchanted forest so when we were talking about engagement session spots that was the first place that came to mind! Fast forward, the C-word hit, and their wedding was postponed an entire year! They already had their wedding details finalized when they made the decision to postpone, so all of their details were ahead of their t ..read more

Sunrise engagement session!! Yes I love love and absolutely love doing sunrise portraits! Not just “morning” sessions, I’m talking true sunrise sessions where they sky is still dark and we wait for that first natural light to peek through. That sunrise golden hour where the humidity is at it’s lowest and it’s still so cool outside! It’s not a secret that I try to avoid sweaty situations in the summer as much as possible so I always bring up sunrise as an option to everyone (also to avoid those afternoon thunderstorms). This was my first time at the Spanish River Library in Boca! It’s always be ..read more
