Sami's Senior year 2017-18

The best part of my job, as a photographer, is making friends that will go far beyond a photo shoot. That is the case with this family - for sure!  Bonnie (Sami's Mom) was a blast to have along and helped me in every way possible during the shoot.  It was a rather warm day but Sami was absolutely gorgeous and I had such a good time shooting her, that I didn't realize how many shots I had taken.  So it came as no surprise to find such jaw dropping beauties in this group of photos!  Sami . . . I hope I get to photograph you again because it truly was a joy!  Best of luck to you in all you do in the future!!  You are just an absolute sweetheart!  

Bryan & Elizabeth's Wedding, Nov. 2017

This is quite a story about how I met this sweet and fun couple . .  Bryan & Elizabeth were referred to me by my friend Mauri, who I know from Arizona. Mauri moved to North Carolina where she worked with Elizabeth. When Bryan & Elizabeth wanted their engagement shoot in DC during Cherry Blossom Season, Mauri referred them to me because I live in Northern Virginia. So, we met in DC for their Engagement shoot. Well, I fell in love with this cute couple right away and we had such a fun time that we began talking about the possibilities of me doing their destination Wedding in Florida!!  Lol, so that is how it all happened. Braden, my second shooter flew from South Carolina, and I flew from VA, and Bryan & Elizabeth flew from North Carolina and we all met in Florida for this fabulous wedding. The venue; Mayfair Hotel, was a tropical paradise. Elizabeth looked gorgeous in her beautiful wedding gown, and Bryan looked so handsome as well. Their "First look" was so unbelievably sweet that both the maid and honor and I were both tearing up!  (Ok, the Maid of Honor was balling!).  Each part of the wedding day was just a fun celebration of this special relationship . . all the way through the crazy dancing into the evening (those pictures are coming later).  So, here are just a few sneak peek photos until I get the rest edited . . but you will see how cute these two are together and how happy they are together.
