Elizabeth & Jonathan's Kickin' Cool Wedding Day

It began with a beautiful ceremony at Indian River Church on Cheney Hwy----definately one of the most gorgeous churches to wed! And, this time of year, the Christmas decorations also adored the sanctuary. It was STUNNING!

From IRC, we traveled a short distance to Birdsong: a pole barn designed especially for weddings and events where shabby chic is your preferred decor. I, most definately, LOVE IT!!

Did you notice the customized artwork for this fabulous couple? Birdsong created artful items just for them such as their initial painted in the antique window overlooking the meadow. (Also, in another image, you will see their name on the roadside sign for guests to follow).

Elizabeth & Jonathan chose the PERFECT time of day of their wedding! The ceremony was held in the afternoon and their celebration trickled into dusk where the sunset bathed Birdsong in golden, sparkling light!

And, before the sun set, we had plenty of beautiful natural light and took advantage of that with lots of straight-up FUN images! Elizabeth and Jonathan are not only a gorgeous couple, but they were incredibly FUN! Isn't Elizabeth a living doll? She was soooooo stunning!! We were truely blessed to work with Elizabeth, Jonathan and their families!

Details are very important in telling the story of your wedding day. Just look at the fabulous details that Elizabeth, her mom & Birdsong chose for her day! Breathtaking! (Plus, do you see that rockin' cool car of Jonathan's?! Thought I woud DIE when I saw it!!! Oh, yeah, we had to play with that, for sure!!)

Elizabeth selected our 5 hour wedding coverage----it was just perfect for their PERFECT WEDDING DAY!!

If you are interested in holding your event at Birdsong of Titusville, please contact the owner, Luanne Ammonds at 321-626-6654 or drop her an email at luammons@aol.com.

Candy & Stephen's Wedding on the Dune

In church this past Sunday, Pastor Wright said that God is present at all weddings, whether on the beach, in a garden or in a church-----whether the ceremony is conducted by a minister or a notary public. I have been to many weddings and I can tell you, he is right. You can feel the spiritual electricity in the air where there is such great love. And, again, it was so at Candy and Stephen's intimate wedding in the dunes on Cocoa Beach. After their ceremony, Candy's facebook simply said, "I married Mr. Right." How beautiful is that? How simple, how filled with love, that singular statement. She is right------for him, as well. Both of them, standing in the dunes, shedding tears of joy, both of them sharing heartfelt laughter, both of them promising God's gift of love to each other. Their ceremony was sweet and swift----I am so grateful to have shared in their precious promise to each other, and to their family. Together, and with their children, they promised a loving family bond, forever. It was simply-------wonderful!

Lauren & Michael's Garden Affair

Lauren & Michael's beautiful wedding was held at the home of Dr. & Mrs. Greg Aker in Titusville. A lovely affair held on the grounds of a park-like setting.

We had a wonderful time working with both of them as well as getting to know their friends and family! Thank you, Lauren and Michael for choosing us to capture this incredibly beautiful day for you! We are very blessed to be a part of it!!

Take a look at Amanda----she is gorgeous and just as sweet as she is beautiful! She couldn't take that glowing smile off her face all day! Derek is a firefighter with the City of Longwood and Amanda's dad requested Satellite Beach Fire Department come out to the ceremony and give them a congrats with all the bells and whistles. You know what? They did! How cool is that? Firefighters who have never met coming out to do a favor for another. That is the essence of brotherhood!! A big thank you and YOU ROCK to Satellite Beach and every firefighter EVERYWHERE!

Jennifer & Eric's Beautiful Wedding Day

I can't tell you how long I've waited to photograph this wedding! Eric is the son of a friend of mine who I use to work with in the ER: Janet. When Janet brought Jennifer to meet me, I knew I would enjoy photographing the wedding. But it was after their Engagement Session, where I learned by working with Jennifer & Eric, that this was absolutely the wedding for me! Jennifer is beautiful, bright, creative and so full of life; Eric is handsome, intelligent, strong and caring. I am so glad that I was there to share in their beginning and to capture AWESOME images for them! Jennifer and Eric were sooooo relaxed and incredibly happy (just look at their glowing faces!). They treasured every moment, realizing this day, this time would never come again. They didn't pass up a single opportunity for me to grab every unfolding minute as well as fun, beach time! Jennifer selected vibrant tropical colors-----which show up so FABULOUS in images! For those up and coming brides, here are some choices Jennifer & Eric made to create their perfect wedding day:

*Their wedding party was made up of fun, happy, loving people!

*Venue was the Crowne Plaza Oeanfront Resort. The Event Coordinator was Lauren Murphy and she assured a beautiful setting, a smoothly run ceremony and happy vendors! (Crowne Royal catered the food and wedding cake.)

*The super cool Groom's Cake was by Something Sweet of Titusville.

*Entertainment and Reception coordination was by DJ Shane (oh yeah, they ROCK!)

*Jennifer and Eric retained us for four hours. Look at all the great things we obtained in that time frame! We arrived 1 1/2 hours before the ceremony to start gathering detail shots, bride & groom portraits and shots of the exciting preparation time. After the ceremony, we had our traditional family group images and ran down to the beach for some fun!

Jennifer and Eric, I am so very, very happy for you! Thank you for choosing me to capture your beautiful wedding day! God bless you and your families!

Tammy & Adam Wed at the Radisson Indian Harbor Beach

Just look at how gorgeous this couple is (and all of their friends)!

It was an absolutely perfect day! Just like it should have been for Tammy & Adam!!

Kim & Ben's Cocoa Beach Wedding

A beautiful beach wedding on a fabulous day! Kim & Ben wed on a dazzling afternoon at the Doubletree on Cocoa Beach at 4pm. A wonderful time of day for Nov. 15th! As you can see we had great lighting and a deep azure sky, painted with wisps of clouds! Kim chose Something Sweet to make her fabulous Caribbean-tropical theme cake and Sinatra's Flowers to create stunning tropical arrangements! I covered Kim's wedding for 6 hours, which gave us plenty of time to get some great pictures of the details that went into creating their beautiful day! Kim & Ben also shared a quiet and intimate time together before the ceremony. After their special moments together, they posed for fabulous Bride & Groom Portraits! Thanks, so much, Kim and Ben, for choosing me to capture the most important times in your life! We had lots of fun and we are blessed by having you in our lives! Enjoy your show!
