We just returned from photographing Kathlene and Dave's wedding in Orlando - yes, we did go to Disneyworld, too. The wedding was scheduled to be held outdoors at Henry Leu Gardens, a gorgeous tropical botanical garden just a few minutes north of Orlando. Here is a shot of the bride and groom on the day of the rehearsal.
However, the weather did not cooperate on the day of the wedding - it was pouring rain - and it had to be moved inside. It was disappointing not to be able to shoot outside among the magnolias and Spanish moss, but the inside of the venue was an excellent Plan B and I just love this shot of the bride and groom on the stairway. The dress was just incredible and had the longest train I have ever seen.
Katie and Dave are currently honeymooning on a cruise in the western Caribbean.

Alyssa - Senior from Riverview
Alyssa was a joy to photograph as she was so comfortable in front of the camera. Bonus - she loved the art shots!
She is using this last photo for the cover of her Senior project.

Senior guys
I guess I should probably give the guys equal time here. Senior boys can sometimes be a challenge to photograph. They often aren't that interested in getting their portrait done in the first place and then they have the added burden of thinking they need to appear strong, fierce, macho in every shot ~ whatever it is that makes high school boys tick. And then there are kids like Sean. Relaxed, confident and secure in who they are.

Meagan's senior portraits
I had a great time photographing Meagan. I was especially pleased when her family chose the posterized version of one of the shots. I love playing around in Photoshop and its very satisfying when one of my art shots makes the final cut.

More seniors
Photographing Lauren was a real blast. High energy girl with a lot of different looks. I especially like the skater kid look. Way too much fun!

Senior Photo - Joe H from Pasco High
I can't believe I have been so negligent at blogging this summer. So I will try to do a little catching up by posting some shots of the things that have been keeping me so busy. Here are a couple of shots of Joe from Pasco High School. We had a great time doing the Urban Funk look. Joe is a rapper and also a really smart guy. He hopes to attend MIT next year to study electrobiological engineering. Wow, I don't even know what that is! Artificial intelligence? Good luck, Joe!

Rachel & Matt's wedding
Had a great time shooting Rachel & Matt's wedding. What a gorgeous couple! I did their engagement session last year out at Hedges Winery.
I love this shot of the guys recreating the Capt. Morgan pose
It was fun posing Rachel on the piano in the church, all the while keeping an eye out for the ever watchful church wedding coordinators.
It doesn't get much better than this
This was pretty amazing. I didn't even notice the mirror in the limo ceiling until I was editing these photos. Too cool!
