Rochelle and Brandon

Rochelle and Brandon had their ceremony and reception at the Hard Rock Hotel at Universal Studios Orlando. The hotel is just stunning.... from the moment you drive through the entrance as its up on a hill (its Central Florida... what the heck is a hill??) and just has this presence. The lobby is chic and hip and the halls are lined with gold and platinum albums of the greatest musicians on earth. The ceremony was outside in the courtyard and we had beautiful blue skies (although the temperature could of been a bit cooler!!). The reception hall was even better... heck it even had this fabric on the walls that was a bit like a leather chamois. Anyway, these two had a blast and I enjoyed myself as well. Here are some of my favorites from the day...

Rochelle and Brandon Engagement Shoot

Wow, in advance of all the upcoming weddings in April and May it appears that all I have been doing lately is engagement shoots. Well, thats ok with me as an engagement shoot is so much fun!! I get the pleasure of getting to know the couple a bit more over that hour or so and they get a few awesome photos out of it!

I recently met Rochelle and Brandon (aka, Robert... thats an inside joke for the three of us!!) at the Portofino Hotel at Universal Studios. Portofino doesnt normally allow photography sessions unless you are getting married there, but I have inside sources that let us run wild outside. The engagement shoot was scheduled a tad bit too early so we had some harsh, bright sun to deal with... but all in all I think the shots came out great.

I had a blast with you two and I cant wait till the end of May and your wedding across the street at the Hard Rock Hotel. Here are a few of my favorites...
