Nikki + Michael | St. Augustine, FL Engagement Photographer

These two are truly living their very own fairy tale and I think it shows in their pictures just how happy and in love they are. They are both total sweethearts and in just 28 short days they will become man and wife at the beautiful Casa Monica Hotel in St. Augustine (right where we shot most of these in the surrounding areas). 

Can't wait!

Flagship Romance Album Images | Jacksonville Musician Photographer

I have worked with Flagship Romance so many times over the past few years and every time I do I'm literally obsessed with every image I take of them. Not only are Jordyn + Shawn talented musicians and singers, the sweetest people (and couple!) you will ever meet, but they know exactly what to do in front of the camera so it's easy peasy for me. I think we have just worked together so many times at this point that we have our flow down and we just have fun while working and the result is always just dreamy and beautiful. 

Love them both to pieces and make sure to check out their music at www.flagshipromance.com ! Their upcoming album which will feature some of these images within the pages of their beautiful twelve page booklet inside, will be coming out in June!

 SO excited to see the final result!

Special thanks to:

Kathryn + Brian 3.30.14 | Nocatee Crosswater Hall | Jacksonville Wedding Photographer

I was literally SO excited to shoot Kathryn + Brian's wedding. From the moment we met at their consultation and they hired me on the spot I was in love with both of them. I was forever their "nugget photographer" because I'm short and they are tall and it was an instant match. We shot their engagement session and it only further confirmed that we were all just thebomb.com together. I also gained amazing friends with these two in the process of getting to know them during their wedding planning. So when there day arrived with gorgeous 70 degree weather and no rain in sight I couldn't wait to capture EVERYTHING. Not only were these two hilarious and amazing the entire day - their wedding party welcomed me like an old friend and everyone was so much fun. My top highlights of their big day were probably the following:

• Doing the wobble with the bride and groom (of course)
• Being their "nugget" was my favorite thing ever
• Their sweet and intimate ceremony
• Getting a sweet gift from Kathryn. Made my heart melt.
• Seeing so much love between Kathryn and Brian and friends they have had since as far back as first grade
• During their "First Look" Brian's exact words when he turned and saw Kathryn were a choked up "Holy Crap!" 
• Getting offered shots of moonshine from the groomsmen over and over again and declining over and over again ;)
• Learning many new expressions that I was dying laughing over and will now use

The list goes on and on....

Love these two so much and I'm so honored they chose me to be the one to capture their big day and also be their nugget friend forever.
