Jennie & Matt’s Orlando Wedding

Jennie & Matt’s Orlando Wedding

Jennie and Matt had an intimate lake side wedding at Lake Bryan in Orlando.  These two are so perfectly matched– they are so funny and full of life.  Sometimes when you see a couple, they just make sense.  Olyn and I were so honored that they had us go down to Orlando to photograph their wedding!

The wedding itself was sweet and emotional– especially Jennie’s last moments with her dad before she walked down the aisle!  I do have to say its pretty dang hard to upstage a bride’s entrance at a wedding, but when Matt and the groomsmen came flying up in a speedboat they definitely started the ceremony with a bang!

Cybill & Trent’s Tallahassee Wedding

Cybill & Trent’s Tallahassee Wedding

The first word I think of to describe Cybill & Trent’s wedding at Bradley’s Pond is “Fun”.  While “fun” sounds like a really generic uncaring word to describe such a wonderful event, its really honestly the truth!  Both Cybill and Trent are hilarious and fun to be around, but so are all of their friends and family!  When you have that many awesome people in one space, add a rockin band, awesome food and drinks… well FUN does sum it up!  I loved every minute of their day and I am so honored they included Olyn and I!

We are so lucky to have the best wedding clients in the world, but the thoughtfulness and love we received from Michelle & Oliver really takes them to a new level!  In addition to being incredibly sweet and loving, Michelle took time out of her wedding preparations to bake cookies for all of her vendors!  I swear she must be Super-Bride!

Aaliya and Dameion {Tallahassee Muslim-American Wedding}

Its not often that Olyn and I meet our couples on their wedding day, but for Aaliya and Dameion, they have been traveling all over the world and didn’t get into Tallahassee until days before their wedding!  Within minutes of meeting Dameion, we felt like old friends– he grew up just minutes away from me back in South Carolina!  Liya was just as easy to get to know as well!  Soft spoken and quick to laugh, she was such a wonderful bride!  I loved getting to learn more about their traditions as we photographed their blended Muslim-American wedding at the FSU Alumni Center!

Efia and Jason wear their emotions on the outside– their joy, sadness, excitement and love are so outward that you can’t help but to get wrapped up in it.  Their wedding was just as a wedding should be– it was intimate, loving, emotional and fun.  They hired all the best vendors in Tallahassee and didn’t worry about a thing!  Olyn and I had the absolute best time with them and I am so heart broken that they are already back in California!!
