Sarah and John

12. 5.09
Sarah and John had an intense and very emotional wedding in Key West, surrounded by an intimate group of family and friends. They tied the knot at Fort Zachary Taylor, exactly where the Atlantic Ocean meets the waters of the Gulf of Mexico, and the skies decided to celebrate the event by sending us all some pretty strong winds the whole day. They couldn't care less, though: they were making their dream come true and that's all that mattered. After a short but beautiful ceremony, the couple and their guests ended the day by celebrating in style at the Ocean Resort, at the end of the famous Duval Street. I was thrilled to have been there for you guys, and I hope you're enjoying the blue waters of Tahiti right now!

Jessica and Nathan

Jessica and Nathan's wedding took place at the Harriet Himmel Theater in West Palm Beach. Both the ceremony and reception were held in the Theater, which made for an amazing setting. From start to finish, all of their family and friends had a great time. The atmosphere was fun, thanks to a live rock band and guests who danced the night away. Congrats and good luck to Jessica and Nathan!

Ashley and Josh

11. 7.09
Ashley and Josh celebrated their wedding this past Saturday at her parent's home in Jupiter. Ashley's mom, Tara, did an unbelievable job of putting together a flawless reception for over 170 guests right on her backyard! The ceremony was beautiful and very touching, and the high point was the ring bearer: none other than Bodie, their dog, who did his part perfectly. The party went on through the night on the huge tent they set up next to the house, and everybody danced and partied until the last trolley left the Ford residence. I can only wish you many, many years of a very happy life together, Ashley and Josh!

Ricardo and Oscar.....There are few moments in our life that touch us more than moments about our children. When I looked at these amazing photos it was like reliving Ashley and Josh's wedding all over again. Ricardo, when we first met with you, we knew you were passionate about your work....and now I understand how truly gifted you and your team are! We thank you a million times over for capturing this special day.

Ashley, Tara, I felt really happy to have been there with you on this amazing day - and the reason why I came back with these images is simply because of you, Josh and everybody else. It was such an intense moment, and you gave me and Oscar plenty to work with! Thanks for the kind words, enjoy the honeymoon and I will see you when you're back. Bon voyage!

Huda and Jason

Their wedding took place this past Saturday at the Pier 66 Hyatt in Fort Lauderdale. They had a huge turnout of family and friends, and everyone had a great time, including myself... The ceremony was an emotional one and the party was incredible! It went on for about five hours and the dance floor was packed the whole time. Huda and Jason are a great couple and I wish the best of luck on their new life together!

Kim and Evan

Kim and Evan were looking forward to doing this beach session, and so was I! Their wedding is a few months away, but they decided the right time for these photos was now, and we spent a fantastic Monday morning enjoying the sun and the refreshing water in Hollywood. It was easy to photograph them, for they are happy, natural and completely in love. Kim, Evan, I enjoyed every minute of it, and I will see you soon with more fun photos!

Sarah and John

09. 9.09
Sarah and John are getting married this coming December in Key West, and for their engagement session they ended up deciding to do something different and have lots of green and foliage around them. The chosen place was the Fairchild Botanical Garden in Coral Gables, and what a beautiful place it is. Neither one of us have been there before, so the whole place was pretty much to be discovered, and we had a fun end of the day at a location that will surely become a favorite. Amazing job, guys, let's get ready now for the big day!
