Autumn days.

So, if you ask me what my favorite time of year is, I would (without question) proclaim 'sprall'. In the spring (in Florida), its the very beginning....and in the fall, its now. So, I have to combine those both times into one and call it 'sprall', only because I can't choose which I like more. Silly, I know, BUT when you are shooting a wedding in late March and the orange sun hits the water at the most perfect time, you will know what I mean. OR when there is an autumn breeze blowing off the water, you will know what I mean. Well, the wedding below was just a perfect autumn day/evening. And the mood just made it oh so much better! I had a ball working with Sarah, it was the perfect day. And it wasn't even my wedding.



This is my favorite...these guys are AWESOME!!

The Kind-Hearted Kind

There is alot to be said when your first impression of someone is 'what a kind-hearted person'. That was the first thing that went through my mind when I met the bride AND groom. They offered us water when we got there, let us boss them around, they made sure they were on time so there would be plenty of time for pictures, and they did all of this with a smile on their face. Really, it was because of the excitement of their wedding day, but boy were they great!! Here are a few from that day!


























I LOOVVVED the bottom of her dress! So beautiful!!!!




























Kickball. Love.

They met over a game of kickball. No really. They did. Both with playful personalities, struck up a great friendship which quickly followed by a great love. I was blessed to have had the opportunity to help Sarah with this shoot! It was above and beyond what I expected. Not just because Florida got the most wonderful cold front on this day, no. BUT, because these two were so VERY MUCH in love with each other. She was happy to have his hand in hers and he was grateful that she was in his life. Best of luck for these two!!


Brian giving her the go around! 'WOW' he said.
















My favorite!














Dad and daughter.
