Winter Haven Garden Center Wedding : Jaime & Tristan

Jaime & Tristan were truly meant for each other. She calls him Peepaw ; she made him Peepaw. Tristan has a heart of gold and Jaime is a sweet simpleton (like me!) Both of them were so laid back from the day we met until they said "I do" and they made my job SO easy!

Jaime worked hard on every little detail and the final product was amazing. I found it hard not to choke up when she walked down the aisle. The bridal party was a hoot and I was cracking up all day! Jaime had a Man-of-Honor and boy did he live up to the title!

Wedding : Grand Rapids Michigan Feb 2012

I had the pleasure of flying up to Grand Rapids to 2nd shoot a gorgeous wedding for Lora of French Elegance Photography. She is a  beautiful and very talented lady and we had tons of fun with this laid back and beautiful wedding! We flew in a day early and did the Bride & Groom's First Look and then Bridal Party Portraits. 

We had a couple of hours so we did photos on the big blue bridge and at the Grand Rapids Museum. The bridal party battled the 30 degree wind/snow and we all had so much fun! It was my first time in real snow, so I made it a big deal to stop and get a picture of me playing in it!

It was FREEZING!!

 Lora kept the boys warm and comfortable by keeping them in stitches! She was cracking them up!!
