Leilani & Anthony - Engagement Shoot in Avalon Park

Leilani booked me as her wedding photographer via email and phone, so we never actually met until her engagement shoot the other day. I have to say that the three of us were laughing and having a great time that I forgot I was working. It really is moments like this that remind me that I have an awesome job!! I know that sounds cheesy but I am pretty lucky.

Here are some of my favorites from the day....

Baby Portraits

Our friend, Melissa, brought her baby over the other day to hang out and exchange Xmas presents. The funny thing was that it was so close to MLK day that we called the MLK presents. Anyway, you cant bring over a beautiful baby like Sanae and me pass up the chance to take some pics. Nothing fancy here, no light set up... in fact no flash at all as I shot these with available window light.

Hope you enjoy!!

Oh and while I am at it... we babysat a puppy not too long ago. The most adorable chocolate lab, just 8 weeks old. So, how does this fit in with the title, Baby Portraits?? Well, it doesnt, but the puppy is still a baby! Does that count? Here are some pics of her...

Sneak Peek from Susan and Tom's Wedding

I was just downloading all the photos from the wedding this past Saturday and this image leaped out at me. I love it... and Susan makes the photo that much more appealing. I had a great time on Saturday, despite being sick and look forward to posting even more photos from the night!!

I love the little fishing boat in the background.

Kayla and Steven: Leu Gardens

I closed out 2008 with a Monday wedding at Leu Gardens. Its such a large place that you could shoot 10 weddings there and all of them could be in different parts. Its a great place with some of the largest oak trees I have ever seen. We also had amazing weather that reminds me why I love Orlando... I mean come on... the end of December and its 78 degrees outside? My wife's family up North were without power because of snow and ice!

Anyway, thanks guys for letting me be a part of such an amazing day in your life! I had a blast!

Willie and Mary - An intimate wedding

Willie and Mary were wed at Willie's sister's home on the east side of Orlando. It was a small, intimate wedding that had just a handful of people which consisted of family and the very best of friends. I was very happy and honored to of been able to record this event. I hope you two enjoy your photos and here are a few that I liked.
