Casa Monica Wedding | Michelle & Josue’ are married!

My year of amazing weddings ended with Michelle & Josue’s Casa Monica wedding.  I could not have asked for a better couple to end the year with.  They planned a destination wedding and were joined by a small group of their closest family and friends.  Their intimate ceremony was followed by a delicious dinner at 95 Cordova and everyone had a really great time.  They topped off the night with a trolley ride in the nation’s oldest city.  This was  a perfect ending to my year and I can’t wait to see what 2013 holds.  Here are just a few of my favorites from their day.  Enjoy!

XOXO

St Augustine Wedding | Mindy & Patrick are married!

I had a great time working with Mindy & Patrick for their wedding last month.  Luckily the rain held off for the most part and we had a beautiful day for their very special wedding.  Thank you both for allowing to me to capture this very special time for you!

St Augustine Wedding | Susana & Brian are married!

Susana & Brian are one of my couples from out of town.  They planned their beautiful St Augustine wedding from Pennsylvania and I’m so happy to have been a part of it.  They have a great sense of style and I loved the great details they incorporated into the day.  From Brian’s custom suit, to Susana’s custom dress and their donation to Lance Armstrong’s LIVESTRONG organization, the day had plenty of character and it was a good reflection of who they are as a couple.  They also chose to do a “first look” at the beach house Susana was staying at, which I highly recommend.  It’s a good way to ease those pre wedding jitters.

The day started out rainy and by the time the ceremony started, we had some clear skies, only to be visited again by the rain before reception time.  With the ups and downs in the weather, none of that really mattered and it certainly didn’t put a damper on how excited Susana & Brian were to be married.  I cannot begin to express how much I truly enjoyed working with them and photographing them on their special day.  On top of that, I was able to work with some of my favorite vendors so all in all, the day couldn’t have been any better.

XOXO

St Augustine Wedding Photographer | Jennifer & Wade are married!

Jennifer & Wade’s St Augustine wedding was a really great event.  I love the personal touches and style she incorporated into the day, including her grandfather who played the organ during the ceremony.  Early on in the day, the rain made a visit but certainly didn’t interrupt the heart felt ceremony and classy reception they had to follow.

Thank you both for having me document your special day!

XOXO
