Amelia Island Wedding Photographer | Laura & Lawson are married!

Last month, I spent the day in Amelia Island photographing Laura and Lawson’s beautiful wedding.  The ceremony and reception took place at Walkers Landing in Amelia Island Plantation.  It had to be one of the hottest days of the year but it didn’t stop everyone from having a great time and celebrating the marriage of such a great couple.

Thank you Laura and Lawson for having me be a part of your special day.  I had a great time!

XOXO

Dana

special delivery. . . . . .

About this time last year, I made a visit to see some old friends from high school.  It’s unfortunate that it takes times of sadness to bring people back into your life.  This was one of those times.

After my visit with Laura and Brian, I knew that they would someday become a part of my “to do” list.  I wasn’t able to reveal my plan to them at the time but I knew if I sat back and waited, the time would come where I could give them something really special.

Fast forward about a year later. . . .

I’m driving down the same road to see my old friends but this time, it was for a time of joy.    :D

Meet baby Connor.
