Creative St. Augustine Wedding Photographer: Parlor Room Events, St. Augustine's Newest Venue

Was super stoked when Natalie Stoppelli Canty (Owner of Parlor Room) &  Julie Stoppelli (Owner of DOS Coffee & Wine) asked me to shoot a stylized shoot promoting St. Augustine's newest wedding and event venue. I cannot wait to see this venue open right behind DOS in December 2016. A beautiful industrial building with handcrafted farmhouse tables.  It's exactly what St. Augustine needs.

St. Augustine Wedding Photographer: Halloween Wedding Portraits, Cedar House Inn & Flagler College

Kelly & Adam are from Port Saint Lucie. They decided to keep things simple (and absolutely gorgeous) and have a small ceremony at Cedar House Inn in historic downtown St. Augustine. They also got married on my favorite holiday and I am SO happy I decided to work this Halloween. The masks Kelly found and Adam's top hat were an awesome touch. Thanks, St. Augustine, for always providing such KILLER backdrops.

Creative St. Augustine Wedding Photographer: Riverhouse Wedding, Lindsay & David Gracey

Lindsay & David were wed, after 13 years together, on October 24, 2015. They stayed at Cedar House Inn downtown, had their ceremony right on the water at the Riverhouse and their reception in the beautiful ballroom. One of the coolest parts of the day was the 2-hour trolley they rented for the bridal party. This not only gave us time to relax and take dozens of photos but also gave their friends a little taste of St. Augustine. And the weather was perfect. Thank you, Child of Prague.

St. Augustine Wedding Photographer: Casa Monica Weddings, Venue Snapshots

The Casa Monica Hotel, in the heart of downtown St. Augustine, is one of my favorite venues. Even if my brides aren't getting married in one of their awesome ballrooms or the pool deck, I always recommend their suites for getting ready with the bridal party. They're spacious, beautiful and have the best view of St. Augustine (and Flagler College towers). Killer for detail shots. They recently contacted me for some work to feature and I got super excited compiling these photos from 2014-2015.

St. Augustine Destination Wedding Photographer: White Room Villa Blanca, Kelsey & Michael Tricoli

Kelsey & Michael take the lead for best reception dancing of the year. Nearly ALL of their guests found their way to the dance floor and I am in LOVE with the expressions that Kelly & I were able to capture throughout night. My favorite part? The aunts dressed as flappers.

St. Augustine Wedding Photographer, St. Augustine gay wedding photographer, St. Augustine Ice Plant & Vilano Beach Engagement: Ali & Marcie

I have to say...I have never spent 6 hours shooting an engagement session—until now. I just couldn't stop hanging out with Ali & Marcie. They are madly in love, hysterical to be around and we have similar taste in drinks (and pizza). We started at the Ice Plant to beat the heat (and to save the awesome makeup by Amanda Hopcraft Makeup Artist) and ended up at the shrimp docks nearby and later, at the beach— once the clouds rolled in. The night ended with a stormy Florida sunset (my favorite) and beachgoers photobombing our last couple of shots. :) 

I am beyond stoked to be part of their wedding come November.

St. Augustine Wedding Photographer: Florida Wedding Photographer, Blue Ocean Breeze Beach House, Florida wedding

Caitlin & Daniel had their picturesque beach wedding on May 23, 2015. The Blue Ocean Breeze is an awesome venue and house—sleeping up to 20 people with high-rise ceilings and the most beautiful light! Not to mention the spiral staircase where they had their first look before their ceremony. The sky darkened post-ceremony but provided the natural soft-box that photogs pray for during beach weddings.

Creative Florida Wedding Photographer: Casa Monica Wedding, Holly & Jan Lindahl

Holly & Jan are a special couple—I knew it the moment I met them, arriving late at a Starbuck's in Jacksonville (I am always getting lost in Jacksonville) but they greeted me with big smiles and a no worries attitude. Their creative energy is electric (Jan is a designer, Holly a painter) and when they are together, you feel happy just being around them.  Our second date was at Halkers, after we spent the afternoon shooting at the Cummer Museum for their engagement shoot. They told me how they met (online), how Holly never thought she'd find the man of her dreams until she met Jan and she spoke of his unwavering support during her ups and downs battling lime disease. His eyes do not leave hers when she speaks.

St. Augustine Wedding Photographer, St. Augustine Photographer, Ximenez Fatio House Wedding: Sarah and Andy!

Sarah & Andy's wedding was truly unique. Sarah and I crossed paths years ago, while volunteering at an after school program together the first year I moved to Florida. I loved her free spirit and ability to connect with people right away. When she contacted me last spring (I'd graduated, she'd met Andy!) I was surprised to find out she and him bought a house only a block away from me!

St. Augustine Photographer: St. Augustine Wedding Photographer, Engagement & Family Session: Brooke & Ryan

Here is a sneak peak of the family/engagement session I shot a couple weeks ago with Brooke, Ryan, Maddie & Hayden. It ended up being warmer than we expected and we watched an awesome sunset fall behind the trees at the Mission Grounds. I cannot wait to shoot Brooke and Ryan's White Room wedding next June!
