I am so looking forward to Leanne and Daniel’s wedding next February. Ian and I had a blast with them at their engagement session and we are looking forward to hanging out with them more. We started the engagement session off as normal, but by the end we ended up bar hopping or the like.

Now to the fun part. We actually started out at Park Plaza Gardens for a glass of wine. We started in this memorable spot of Leanne’s. Her father who passed away loved coming here and it is one of Leanne’s fondest memories. It was the perfect spot to start. We were talking about ideas for the engagement session while we were here and decided that it would be fun to stop to a few different really unique bars in the area. Leanne and Daniel are all about having a good time. We talked about what they wanted their wedding to be like in their initial meeting and Leanne just said, “all we really want is our guests to have a great time.”

Our next stop was the Wine Room on Park Ave. This is one of my favorite spots in Winter Park. It’s really cool because you pay for wine by the ounce and can try a few different kinds before committing to a whole glass (if that’s what you decide to do). It was fun to go around to the different pours (there are over 50 of them!) and trying everything from a super sweet Riesling to an ultra dry Cabernet.

The last place we went was to an antique shop, that just so happens to have a bar. What? Bar in an antique shop. Just let those words soak in. The Imperial is located in Washburn Imports along Orange ave. The Imperial just opened a month or two ago, but the antique shop has been here for years.  As you can see we had a lot of fun!

I am constantly photographing. I have about 20 things on my to do list to blog over the next few weeks. It’s great!

Ian and I took a short trip to Saint Augustine, FL a few weeks ago to photograph for our stock portfolio. Take a look at some of the images I took while traveling.

This is the post you have all been waiting for! Yes, after months of holding out on you, I’m finally catching up on blogging. Yay! There is one catch. I am going to be writing less and just showing you the photos more. Enjoy!

Lisa and Jayson were married in Key West at the Westin Pier with their Reception taking place at the Audubon House. Their wedding planner, Julie from Simply You was fantastic! She really helped tie the whole day together. Jayson and Lisa were a wonderful couple to work with and I wish them the best!

Hi Friends! I am headed off to NYC as we speak. I will be assisting the wonderful photographer, Punam Bean this weekend. She was kind enough to let me tag along with her wedding last weekend in St. Martin. Here are some photos of the island that I took on our downtime:

Carly and I are breakfast buddies. She randomly posted on Facebook a few months ago looking for someone to go to breakfast with her and being the foodie that I am I quickly replied to her post. We ended up at the Brier Patch talking over a wonderful breakfast of pancakes and Raspberry Brie French Toast. It’s funny how friendships seem to form out of nowhere.

I have been absolutely in love with my neighborhood since the second I stepped foot in my 1920’s bungalow apartment. I think this was the 5th shoot that I have photographed in and around the Lake Cherokee Historic district. The afternoon light in my neighborhood is stunning. This whole shoot was done in less than an hour in my neighborhood. Talk about using what you know!

P.S. I just bought a whole bunch of hair clips and headbands from the lovely Karie Sue Creations for upcoming photo sessions. Let me know if you would like to have a custom hair clip for your portrait or engagement session. I couldn’t help myself, I bought 5!
