Autumn+William | Wedding Photographers in Orlando

Sat. July 10, 2010 Posted in Wedding Photography

On June 25th Autumn and William were married at The Grand Bohemian Hotel in Orlando.  What a beautiful hotel for a beautiful wedding!  The Grand Bohemian is a Kessler hotel founded by Richard Kessler who is also a strong supporter of the arts.  Their Four and Five Diamond rated hotels are noted for their distinctive architecture, stylish decor, and rare art and music displayed throughout.  Autumn and William are a stylish couple so the Grand Bohemian was a perfect choice.  From a photographer’s point of view it was awesome.  Sandy Thornton, coordinator at the hotel, was incredible to work with.  She went above and beyond and I think she even bent over backwards a few times.  I’m looking forward to working with her again.

Autumn is a gorgeous bride.  She wore a princess wedding dress that was absolutely perfect for her.  William was dashing in his tux and I kept thinking, “James Bond”.  The ceremony was held on the 3rd floor outdoor pool deck under a huge white canopy, very cool, and the reception was in the Johann Strauss Ballroom.

Both families were wonderful and I have to thank Stephanie Humphrey (Stephanie Humphrey Photography) for referring Autumn and her family to me.  Stephanie also helped me photograph Autumn and William’s day, once again, THANK YOU!  Some of her work is included here.

Congratulations, Autumn and William.

Elizabeth+Adam | St. Pete Beach Wedding Photography

Fri. June 18, 2010 Posted in Wedding Photography

Elizabeth and Adam were married June 13, 2010 on St. Petersburg Beach, FL at the Sirata Beach Resort.  Many couples come to Florida for their destination weddings which sometimes makes it difficult for family and friends to attend.  For Elizabeth and Adam’s wedding it didn’t seem to be an issue.  Even though they came to Florida from Albuquerque they had friends and family from 14 states come to share in their day.  That’s pretty impressive!

It was another scorcher of a day but it didn’t bother Elizabeth or Adam.  Actually, I think Elizabeth is used to staying cool in the heat and under pressure.  Not only has she been planning for her wedding but she was also studying to take the bar exam…which she recently passed on the first attempt!

Congratulations to the two of you; I wish you many happy and healthy years together.

Here are a few images from their day.

Kathleen+Steven | Anna Maria Island, Florida Wedding

Thu. June 17, 2010 Posted in Wedding Photography

Kathleen and Steven were married on Saturday on the beach in front of the Harrington House Bed & Breakfast on Anna Maria Island. It was an intimate wedding with a few close friends and family mostly visiting from Georgia.  We’ve been having some really hot days lately but there was a little rain right before the ceremony that cooled the air, it was perfect!  It probably wasn’t raining across the street, Florida weather is so weird.

Being part of the community of photographers in our area I feel that it is important to work together with other studios.  I want to thank Paul from Chi Photography for providing the opportunity to work with Kathleen and Steven.

Here are a few of my favorite images from their day.

Melissa+Chris | Beach Weddings in Florida

Tue. June 15, 2010 Posted in Wedding Photography

Melissa+Chris were married on June 11, 2010 at the Grand Plaza Hotel on St. Pete Beach, FL.   Their wedding was at 10:30 a.m. which was a perfect time for pictures on the beach.  Our gulf coast sunsets are beautiful for late afternoon weddings but in the morning the sky is a deep blue and the water shows off its aqua green color.  Melissa and Chris’s ceremony with that backdrop was absolutely beautiful!  An added bonus was the fantastic light that filled the Presidential Ballroom during the reception…a photographer’s dream.  I’m very much liking morning weddings!

Ricky from Rhythm Makers DJ’s kept everyone on the dance floor.  Most of the bridal party knew each other from college and you could tell that they had done this party thing a few times before.  The gorgeous and delicious cake was created by A Piece of Cake – Tampa.

Here are some of my fav images from their day.

Audra+Michael | Weddings in Florida

Mon. June 7, 2010 Posted in Wedding Photography

Audra and Michael were married this weekend at The Home Place in Dover, Florida. Audra was in her cousin’s wedding that I photographed in 2008 so I knew many of her friends and family. I love it when that happens. A few months ago I photographed their engagement session and I could tell that the wedding was going to be huge fun. Mikey is one of the funniest people I have met, add to that his brother Wesley as the best man and the rest of the guys in the wedding party…and well…you just had to be there. For the guys pictures with the bride they all put blackout under their eyes. Audra didn’t notice because they had on sunglasses until after a few of the pictures. It was just another funny moment in a long list of moments.

Once again, I want to thank Stephanie from Stephanie Humphrey Photography for shooting this wedding with me. Stephanie is an amazing photographer and I highly recommend her.   I also want to thank Stephanie from The Home Place for having such a great venue for holding events and for being so organized to keep things running smoothly.  The Home Place doesn’t have an official website yet but I can tell you that it is a premier wedding and reception location.   Lastly, thank you to my good buddy Wade, owner of Tampa Bay Mobile DJ for keepin’ ‘em movin’.

Here are a few of Audra and Mikey’s pictures from their day. I will add a slideshow set to music in a few days.
