Disney Destination Wedding at Paradise Cove, Lake Buena Vista, FL

Nicola & Joseph are the absolute bees knees and it was such a sweet joy to photograph their Disney destination wedding at Paradise Cove in Lake Buena Vista. The two sweethearts could not keep their eyes off each other or keep the smiles from their faces whenever they looked towards the other. So MUCH love surrounded them! The ceremony was beautifully performed by Teresa Knox of A Beautiful Ceremony. Paradise Cove on Little Lake Bryan is such a perfect location for a destination wedding in Orlando with its elegant tropical vibe and gorgeous views of the lake. After the ceremony, champagne toast, and cake- The Greggs and I were able to journey over to Disney’s Yacht & Beach Club for their Disney newlywed photos. Such an AMAZING time spent with the two of them!

Fall Wedding at Town Manor on the Lake in Auburndale, FL

Fall Wedding at Town Manor on the Lake in Auburndale, FL

There are just not enough words to describe how sweetly wonderful it was to photograph the wedding of Keila & Joey at the elegant Town Manor on the Lake in Auburndale, FL. Their kindness and respect for each other was evident in everything they did and the love of their families floated around them like a cloud all through the day. What started out as a rainy, windy day cleared up long enough to have their ceremony in front of the gorgeous white gazebo where the florals matched the bouquets held by all the beautiful bridesmaids,

After the ceremony, we were able to venture out onto the dock overlooking Lake Julianna as the sun was beginning to set. Just before we all went in for dinner, Keila and Joey shared their first dance as husband and wife, surrounded by friends and family, on the brick balcony with an epic view of the lake.

Thank you so much for choosing me to photograph your lovely Town Manor wedding. It is always such a joy to be there!

Haines City, Florida Wedding of Camil & Garrett

Haines City, Florida Wedding of Camil & Garrett

Camil & Garrett and their sweet, joyful Haines City wedding were hands down the highlight of my August! Back in April I photographed Camil's sister's wedding at the gorgeous Town Manor on the Lake. When Camil got in touch with me to photograph her wedding, I was completely on board! The family is just that AWESOME!


This was a love story that began eight years ago when the two were in high school and blossomed into a grown-up fairytale. The beautiful couple was certainly one of the most kind couples I have had the pleasure of working with. Garrett cherishes Camil to no end and shows it in every possible way he can while Camil adores Garrett and everything about him! They are so perfect together and I am so thankful they chose me to photograph their lovely wedding day!

There is something particularly magical about paring your guest list down to only the people that are closest to you. These are your cheerleaders, your confidantes, the people that wish you only joy and that energy permeates a wedding day and allows the couple to focus on their love and the love of those surrounding them. Micro weddings, when planned correctly can be a low stress, laid back affair and a fantastic way to start off married life together! So happy these sweethearts chose such a wonderful way to tie the knot!
