Our neighborhood celebrated Halloween yesterday, which I am thankful for.
The kids are sleeping in today (no school) and we don’t have to stay up late tonight – we won’t have to experience those post-Halloween school day I’ve-eaten-too-much-candy-and-I’m-cranky blues !!
Um, yeah, I tried to crimp my hair … with my crimper from the 80’s … ahhh memories!
Hope your day is full of scary & fun!

This past weekend I had the honor to shoot a lovely beach wedding in Naples, Florida. I was the second shooter with the fabulous Rachel Durik of Savor Photography.
What made this wedding so lovely was not only the setting, but the people. I have never met such a kind & welcoming family, and this was the first time I had met them! Smiles all around.
I started my day photographing the men getting ready. They were real sports from the minute I knocked on the door, and true gentlemen.
John received pre-ceremony gifts from Kate:
The men were fun to photograph, and made my job very easy:
On the way …
Waiting on his bride to come through those far doors:
Many couples choose to do a ‘first look’, where they see each other before the ceremony. Not only is it a special intimate moment to experience, but it also allows a couple to take some of the formal pictures before the ceremony, making time to attend the cocktail hour!
Kate and John decided to see each other before the ceremony :
We walked to another location for more pictures:
Simply stunning bride!
It was truly a perfect day for a beach wedding. Here’s one I snapped before the guests arrived:
Time for Dad to walk Kate down the aisle :
Beach pictures …
Let the celebration begin!

Truly an honor to be a part of your magnificent day – Congratulations!

This past weekend I had the honor and privilege to work along side the extremely talented Rachel Durik of Savor Photography. I was assisting her as a second shooter for a destination wedding at the Ritz Carlton, Naples.
Here is glimpse of the bride & groom … as she is walking towards him to see each other for the first time …
More of this beautiful bride coming soon~

This is one of my favorite families to photograph. You may remember them from last year – gorgeous Momma and her three boys. This year we decided to change it up and set up a picnic at a local park. Let the boys play, and let the parents relax & be together. Ahhh, it was wonderful!
Enjoy your first look – can’t wait to share the rest.
Hello beautiful blue eyes
And the boys played, and played hard!
Then it was Mom & Dad time … these two are simply perfect together …
What a sweet family. Love.

We met at sunrise to capture the soft light of the new day. It was a bit chilly, but LJ was easy going and a lot of fun to work with!
Enjoy your first look~
I was very excited to be able to capture the moon in one of our shots :
Strength AND grace … a true celebration!
Sparkling beauty:
