Married :: Lewis & Lora’s Orlando Wedding

100306_vail_25

March 6, 2010 could not have been the more perfect day, especially for Lora & Lewis who were being united in Christ as husband & wife. God definitely gave his blessings this day as far as the weather was concerned! We have been planning this day with Lora & Lewis for a long time, & we are so incredibly humbled and honored that they chose to invest in us as their wedding-day storytellers. We met Lora through Summer & Brandon’s wedding almost four years ago. Lora also works with Nikki (who married Brady) a few years back also. There were [...]

Getting to Know Emily & Jeff :: Orlando Session

100228_gagan_03

It all started with a breakup and a Match.com free trial expiration. Emily knew she had three days before her time was up, so she got to work. Since the site had rejected Emily’s profile pic, Jeff sort of just wrote her off -”sketchy” was the word. But Emily emailed (surprising to Jeff) and pursued a meeting. This was NOT the protocol. But neither are protocol type people. A meeting at a local coffee shop soon ensued. Emily is stylish and sophisticated intelligence sitting there reading her novel. In comes Jeff, a casual and confident (and VERY sarcastic) intelligence. Upon [...]

It was Paris, Summer of 2006. Their eyes discover one another at the bar. She thinks he is the most incredibly sexy man she has ever seen. For her, it’s love at first sight.

Welcome to Our New Blog!!!

Buoy_boys-015

Welcome! And thanks for stopping by. This is our newly re-born blog and we are so very excited about it. It has only taken us about 3 years to get here, but hey, who’s counting?? I thought we should start off by introducing who is most important to us- our boys Brooks & Bryce- just in case you didn’t know by now! They are the reason we wake in the morning (literally, because they wake us up!!!) and they keep us really focused on what’s important. They also keep us exhausted, frustrated, confused, happy, thankful, amazed, amused and too many [...]

Getting to Know Lora & Lewis :: New York, New York

100206_Lora-and-Lewis_01

Lora & Lewis met a few years back through church in a round-a-bout way . The complete story is MUCH better when told by them! It seems that they sort of went on a first date without one of them not actually realizing it was a first date. Hmmmm, bet that was interesting! And well, after a couple months of dating, a breakup, some drama, and a wee bit of begging from one party to another, Lora & Lewis reunited and have been blissfully happy ever since. We are so thrilled that we have been invited to capture, document, and [...]

Meet Baby Jade

100118_Jade_NB_02

Little Miss Jade came into the world just a little over a month ago to proud parents Keri & Patric. She’s already a world traveler as she started out in Switzerland and came all the way here to Orlando to be born. Keri’s parents live here, and she and Patric thought it might be a little easier having some family around to help with this new chapter in their lives. Smart move We’re glad you’re here! Mike was able to get some great maternity shots of these expecting parents about a month prior to Jade’s arrival. Keri looks great! (Then [...]

Married :: Richard & Lindsey’s St Augustine Wedding

100116_carter_wed_15

We had the absolute joy of being in St Augustine a few weeks ago for Lindsey & Richard as they became husband and wife at Ancient City Baptist Church. Family and friends celebrated this “mixed” marriage at the White Room afterwards. What an incredibly fun and genuine group of people. So, what do I mean by “mixed” marriage? Well, SHE is a Seminole and HE is a Gator. I suppose there are worse things and I suppose their marriage will survive these vast differences. Of course it will!!!! This wedding was so great. Richard serenaded his groomsmen and the girls [...]

Happy 1st Birthday, Baby Leighton!

090130_leighton_newborn_01

Back in December 2006, we celebrated & documented the marriage of Thomas & Christina in Ocala. It was an incredibly beautiful and emotional wedding for these high school sweethearts. Christina’s dad was witnessed crying for the first time by his two daughters. It was amazing. Even more amazing is that we were invited to capture the new life they welcomed into the world last January- Leighton Jessica Pestow- named after Christina’s sister Jessica. Thomas & Christina have been our biggest fans and we have been so blessed by their friendship. Thank you!! Well, Miss Leighton was ONE on January 18th, [...]

Tying up loose ends………

080210_anderson_01

Well, it’s that time of year when I purge the office of last year and prepare for the new year. Yes, it takes a month to get started because it takes as long to wrap up the previous year! As I was going through stuff, I realized there were TONS of things that never made it to the blog. Some of the stuff is from a couple of years ago! Shame on me I’ve decided that I’m going to post a little here and there to get caught up. Oh yeah, and then there’s the whole name change thing. I [...]
