Elena and Romeo

This is an engagement session for Elena and Romeo, photographed in Boca Raton, FL. Prior to the shoot, it had rained for something like 23 days straight in the area.. so we were worried about being able to shoot outdoors at all (since I was only in town for 2 days). It wasn't the type of rain where there were breaks and you could hope for some dramatic clouds and lighting... it was torrential! But thankfully, that Sunday morning, the clouds disappeared and the sun came out full strength... and we were able to have our on location session in Boca. It was well worth the trip, too. I had a great time with them and it's obvious they're so in love and have alot of fun together. I'm very excited about travelling back for their June wedding this year!

Jenna and Steven

Here is a wedding I shot in Daytona Beach, FL ~ Steven and Jenna. (It was held at the same venue my wedding will be at in May.) I've actually known the groom since he was probably about 8 years old. He and my little brother were friends growing up. So I've watched Steven grow up, and have seen the couple grow from High School Sweethearts to the couple they are today. In the past, I had photographed both his older brother and older sister's weddings (... before I went digital) and I was hoping they'd want me to shoot his wedding as well. Even though it meant travelling back to Florida after just getting settled into my new home in Washington, I was thrilled to be their photographer.
