The Ballroom at Church Street

There is always a beautiful story behind every relationship.  For Marysia and Xavier, it is a magical one straight out of Disney.  They met at Disney's EPCOT in 2008.  Xavier knew he wanted to be happily ever after with his princess and did everything possible to just see her each day when he was at work by switching shifts and stations.  And lucky for him, Marysia noticed.  When they decided that they wanted a fairytale wedding at The Ballroom at Church Street to go with their Beauty and The Beast theme,  Xavier worked hard taking up three jobs to make sure his princess got her dream wedding.  When I heard this,  I was so touched, all I wanted was to make sure I capture this special day to preserve it forever for them.  I am so happy for Marysia and Xavier!!  Congratulations to the both of you!!  Of course once again I had an incredible that made my job easier.

I have known David and Melanie for many years.  This is our second maternity session together.  The first one was with Carson and now Carson is going to be a big brother to Beckham in just less than two weeks.  I don't have children of my own but having the opportunity to capture David and Melanie's journey in life together has given me great joy.  It's amazing seeing Carson growing up so fast.  It was just like yesterday that I photographed Melanie's pregnancy with him.  Well, in just about two more weeks I'll be able to help welcome Beckham to the world.

This has been a crazy winter season in Florida.  One day it is hot the next cold.   The forecast said it was suppose to rain all weekend.  Originally I wanted to do the session at a different location but decided to go to my favorite place, Rollins College.  I figured if it rains, there will be some roofed areas for us to do our photo shoot.  It turned out to be a nice sunny and crisp Florida winter day.  I can never get tired of Rollins College in Winter Park, Florida.  The azaleas are blooming!!

I was thrilled when Leah wanted to do a fun boudoir session for her husband to be.  And I was even more thrilled when she said I can blog about it.  This was a super easy session done at Leah's resident in Orlando, Florida.  We Kept it simple.

January 14, 2017

I first met Kori and Brian in May 2016 at Rollins College for their engagement session.  I knew they were perfect for each other back then.  I have been looking forward to their wedding all these months.  We started off with the bridal preparation at Courtyard by Marriott in Cocoa Beach, Fl.  The ceremony was at Ascension Catholic Church in Melbourne.  It was a very beautiful church where Brian attended when he was a young boy. Both Kori and Brian are devoted Catholic. 

My favorited place of the day was Birdsong Barn.  I'm starting to realize that there are many barns in Central Florida and each one is as adorable as the other.  This adorable barn is located at the end of a small road in Titusville, Florida.  GPS will drop you off before you actually get there, luckily I saw a sign on the side of the road.  The first thing I noticed when I got out the car to unload my equipment was the sound of birds singing.  This place is chic from the grounds to the table cloth.  I decided to take bohemian rustic with the editing.  But of course I always keep the original classic and timeless style as an option for all my clients.

Thank you Kori and Brian for giving me the opportunity to be part of your big day!!

Orange County Courthouse., Orlando, Florida

Taplan and Megan got hitched today at the Orange County Courthouse in Orlando, Florida. I am so honored to have encountered these two beautiful people through  my friend Missy.  I had many ups and downs in my life including relationships but I never gave up.  I kept with my beliefs.  I believe in soul mates and true love, fate and destiny.  A course of life can change with just one chance encounter.  I believe in friendship old and new.  Missy is my new friend and from my encounter with her, I met Taplan and Megan, an amazing and loving couple.  I believe a photograph is powerful and the memories capture is priceless.  We had such a great afternoon photographing around downtown Orlando.  We encountered the firefighters at the Downtown Orlando Fire Station.  They were so friendly and kind even offered us the use of their firetruck.  Wow!!  I was expecting to get kicked off the area but instead, they open their doors to us.  I still believe in people.

Please enjoy a few fun photos from out day.

Congratulations Taplan & Megan

I believe in soul mates and true love.  Tara and Kathy have been together for so many years.  They both moved to Orlando, Florida together from up north many moons ago.  I am so happy that they will have the chance to tie the knot.  I am looking forward to their big day!!

Here are a few photos from their engagement.

I had the pleasure photographing Yana's maternity and now it was my honor to photograph her new baby and family.  This was an amazing December day in Winter Park Florida.  We went for a nice stroll at Rollins College.  It was perfect timing since the students are on winter break from school and away visiting families back home.

Here are a few photos from our day.

I have been looking forward to Allie and Brandon's special day all year long.  I enjoyed photographing them at the engagements session so much, I couldn't wait until the BIG DAY.  We started the day off at Loews Sapphire Falls at Universal Studios.  This was the perfect place for our pre ceremony session.  Our next stop was Dubsdread historic Ballroom in Orlando, Florida.  Allie and Brandon had decided to do an intimate first look before the ceremony which was perfect for a December afternoon.  We had great lighting and the most beautiful sunset.  I love all the weddings I photographed but this one in at the top.  

Here are a few photos from Allie and Brandon's special day.

The sweetest of days are shared with your inner circle, your family and close friends. All you need is great company and great food. 

I was very lucky to have this special day available.  I love spending just a few hours capturing these special moments. It was a typical beautiful sunny Saturday morning in Orlando, Florida.  Finding  Jacquie and George's house as I pulled into their quiet neighborhood was super easy.  All I had to do was follow the guests walking in and the smell of delicious food being prepared by Puff n Stuff.  I can feel the excitement in the air as I walked in the house.  The guests were already mingling with  George, very handsome in his tux from Absolute Fitting in Winter Park, Fl.  I found Jacquie in the bedroom getting her final touch up with hair and makeup by J. Christine Salon in Doctor Phillips.  And Ladies, you don't have to spend thousands or hundreds of dollars for a wedding dress.  Jacquie looked amazing in her white dress by BCBG. 

The ceremony was absolutely precious.  It was set on the pool deck in the backyard all decorated with gorgeous flowers by Windermere Flowers and Gifts. The wedding procession started with Jacquie's daughters being escorted by George's sons.  Jacquie was escorted by her best friend to the beautiful song Ave Maria performed by violinist, Victor Bowers. .  The ceremony was officiated by Jacquie's brother-in-law.  They had a short and sweet ceremony followed by photo session and an amazing lunch reception catered by Puff n Stuff.

Here are a few photos from out morning.

Enjoy!

I was referred by Rebecca's mother for this beautiful wedding.  I have shot many weddings at the Rosen Plaza before but this is the only time we decided to go across the street to do first look and newlywed photos at The Orange County Convention Center.  I normally go to Rosen Shingle Creek to do newlywed photos but thought we would save the drive.  I am so happy that Rebecca and Robert decided to do the first look and follow by bridal party photos.  The wedding was at sunset which means we will have no light afterwards.  They made the perfect decision.  We ended up getting some amazing photos.  It was my pleasure being a part of Rebecca and Robert's special day.  I am fortunate have witnessed their love and union.

Here are some photos of their day.  Remember these photos are just the tip of the iceberg.  There are more photos coming soon in your full gallery.

November 18, 2016 at Greenwood Urban Wetland, Orlando, Florida

It was serendipity when I found Greenwood Urban Wetland for my couples portrait session this morning.  I was on my way to scout out a location the day before at Baldwin Park when the pond caught my eye.  I decided to do both my photo sessions I have scheduled for today here.  It just happens to be in Missy and Mia's neighborhood.  This is where they enjoy their daily walks. By the way, Missy is the tall blonde and Mia is the short one.  I love your place Mia!!

November 18, 2016 at Greenwood Urban Wetland, Orlando, Florida

It is always great to have new photos before the Holidays.  When Ashley and Jessie told me they wanted to have their family photos done,  I needed to fine a quiet place that is dog friendly.  I had the dog park in Baldwin Park in mind and decided to scout out the area the day before but never made it there.  As I was driving there, a sparkle from a pond caught my eye. I have drove by this pond for the last 15 years and never thought to stop.  So I said to myself, heck, I'm already here I might as well check it out.  Wow!!  To my surprise, it is a wetland right next to downtown.  This must be the place where the stream from Azalea Dickson Park must flow into.  We got some country chic photos in the middle of the city.

Got to love Orlando, The City Beautiful.

Lake Mary, Florida

I have been looking forward to photographing Tori and Chris's big day since I first met them.  I made sure I arrive extra early to Timacuan Golf and Country Club in Lake Mary, Florida since this was my first wedding there.  Just a quick drive from Orlando, this place has the southern charms you are looking for with well established trees and hanging Spanish mosses, my favorite.  The property has several beautiful bridges that are perfect for sunset newlywed photos.  

Upon arrival, after meeting with the bridal party, I met with David DeAssis, the Director of Operation for Timacuan Golf and Country Club.  It was nice that he was available to show me around and gave me ideas on where to go for our first look and bridal party photos.  He also informed me that they had provided us with golf carts to drive on the golf course for the newlywed photos after the ceremony.  David was very professional and on point with all the activities which made my day super easy.

It was an honor to have the opportunity to be a part of Victoria and Chris's special day.  I have a front row view to all their special moments.

Please enjoy these photos of their day and feel free to leave me a message at the end.

Brittany and Kurt got engaged at a spot where few might notice the beauty.  Tucked away behind the walkway from Loews Portofino Bay Resort to Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida, there are beautiful gardens with bamboos, foliage and flowering trees.  I have been familiar with all of Universal Studios properties for many years and I have no idea this place existed.  This amazing place is easily missed if you are in a hurry to go get in lines for the amusement parks and not stop to smell the roses.  Well, one couple did stop and they got engaged there.  Brittany and Kurt wanted to revisit the spot where they got engaged and do a photo session with me.  They were a bit nervous and shy at first but I told them that I will make them look great. I am very thankful that I got to be part of their lives. 

Here are few sneak peeks of our afternoon.
