Jaime + Jason | St. Augustine, FL Engagement Photographer

I am so behind on blogging it's not even funny so I am going to reset with Jaime and Jason's adorable St. Augustine engagement as of today!

I will most likely do a massive combined blog of all the sessions I have been slacking on not posting for the past few months and then go forward from there because it is way too much to blog individually...I suck I know.

Anywho.... These two are SO SWEET. I seriously can not wait for their wedding next spring. So laid back, in love and fun and I am so glad we decided to shoot in St. Augustine on a Saturday morning instead of the afternoon. We beat the heat (it was still hot but not as bad), the rain and there was literally nobody around. I have never seen this city such a ghost town. It was glorious.

Enjoy these two and all their cuteness :)

Till Death Do Us Part | An Inspired Editorial | Jacksonville Wedding Photographer

I am so excited to finally share these images...

Let me just say that I have so many inspired and off the wall editorial or styled shoot ideas but rarely make the time to actually do them. I made the time for this one and I am so happy I did.

I wanted it to be minimal in the sense of a perfect and small team...no props except the bouquet which I made myself. Simple but striking. Why? Because the location spoke for itself and we didn't need to bring in a lot.

This shoot was a much needed creative reset for me and I am going to make it a point to make time for my creative spirit -- and sometimes dark ideas more often ;)

SO much thanks to everyone involved. Not everyone in this world would be up to go shoot and model in an old abandoned funeral home. But these guys were more than ready and willing. We were all honestly way too excited over it. Elaina even offered to lay in one of the coffins....a true trooper (I didn't make her) and both Tim and Elaina were champs as they sat in an old hearse looking perfect while tons of mosquitos flew around them. No big deal.

You guys "killed it" ;)
