Natalie is the sister of Rob, from Jessie & Rob! We're thrilled to be shooting another wedding for one of our favorite families!
Natalie and Paul wanted to include their son, Anthony, in some of their engagement photos. We met them at our spot on New Smyrna Beach and pretty much just watched them play! Anthony was such a little gentleman.. I can't wait to see him all dressed up on the wedding day!
Nathan and Thayne have been best friends since they were 6. I think it's so cool that they're both getting married the same year! :) Nathan will be the best man in Thayne and Erika's wedding this summer in Tennessee, and we can't wait! There's never a dull moment with these two.. Thayne was Nathan's guniea pig during his early stages of photography, where they used to conquer parking garages and other random areas whenever Nathan would get a new idea. So if anyone's seen Nathan's hard work pay off, it's Thayne! We're so happy he found such a cool girl.. Erika is tiny, sweet, and you'd never know it when talking to her, but she grew up in Norway, which I think is pretty much the coolest thing ever. :)
Anyway.. Enjoy our favorites from their night shoot in downtown Tampa!

So my birthday was this past Monday (the 12th) and Jensey made sure it was the absolute best ever! The day started with a custom-ordered Jensey breakfast, and then continued with a surprise adventure to somewhere in Orlando. After driving down I-4 and through some side streets on 192, we come up to a big open field...
...with a helicopter in it!!
This is something I've wanted to do for years. It may seem touristy cheesy (and it is), but it's so cool! I'm generally afraid of heights, but it was a blast flying over Orlando seeing things from a different angle! Here are a few of my favorites.... 
And after the wonderfully fun helicopter ride, I still had another big gift in store! (Did I mention yet how amazing Jensey is?) Jensey went way over the top and got me a digital camera. Now, I know that may not sound like much since we're photographers and all, but I've not had a point&shoot digital since December of 2000. Cameras have come a long way since then and I couldn't be happier with my new Canon Powershot SD750. As you can imagine, our wedding cameras aren't all that great to bring absolutely everywhere. But the Powershot is!! Don't be surprised if you see it our next wedding! ;)
Thank you for an amazing birthday, Jensey! You kicked my butt this year, but next year it's my turn!
We did Nick and Alicia's engagement session in Collierville, Tennessee. Alicia and I went to high school together in Memphis, and she found me on Facebook. After seeing our stuff, she and Nick decided to book us for their wedding next May, and we couldn't be happier! Since my family moved away from my hometown, I love having reasons to go back and visit!
