Elise and Wayne

Elise and Wayne got married on March the 28th on a beautiful NYC day. All the way from Australia, this couple traveled far for love. Elise and Wayne met about three years ago; Elise traveled to Australia from China to attend university and build a better future. Elise spent the day telling me about her family history, and how special this day would be not only for her, but for the entire family. Although I don't speak Chinese, this family made sure I knew I was appreciated; the warmth was truly unreal. I could feel the gratitude this family had for being together and it made for an amazing day and plenty of family portraits. 

We met at the marriage bureau and from there on visited several parks and enjoyed the NYC architecture. The evening ended in Brooklyn where I got to document a beautiful, traditional Chinese tea ceremony.

This day was something really special and I'm so happy I got to be a part of it. 

Deanna and Dario

From the moment I walked into the most adorable bed and breakfast and saw newspapers that were actually the wedding program, I knew this day was going to be quirky, creative and beautiful. The weather was absolutely gorgeous and so was the bride! 

Deanna and Dario got married at the Sweetwater Branch Inn in Gainesville on Valentine's day! 

Joe & Beka

Joe and Beka have been together since January 2013 and have been conquering life together ever since! They both enjoy computer and board games but also love hunting for adventures outside, running and kayaking.

This lovely couple got married on January 9th at the Wakulla Springs Lodge which happens to be one of my favorite places in North Florida! It rained and things had to be re-arranged, but that certainly didn't take away from how special this day was.
