Beautiful Islamorada Wedding for Mandi & Jim

shannon — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 14:18:23 +0000

We had a wonderful time this past week shooting Mandi & Jim’s wedding in the Keys. It was an intimate wedding but she had beautiful details & the weather couldn’t have been more perfect. They even had a full moon for the reception which was spectacular! Here are just a few shots from the day. And check back later this week for the slideshow which will include their first dance, reception & the moon! Enjoy!!

She reminds me of a classic Hollywood screen goddess.

First Look

LOVE how relaxed they are before the ceremony

The flower girls made sure all the petals were out for Mandi. So cute!

What a view from the reception!

Kim at Parisian Events shared this video of the upcoming Salon du Chocolat Paris happening now until November 2nd. And if you are in NYC November 7 - 9, you can indulge in sampling chocolate, enjoy receipes prepared live by chefs and admire the works in the Chocolate fashion show. Paris or NYC, I’d be in heaven……..well I think if I were in Paris right now, enjoying all that chocolate I’d truly have hit my heaven. Enjoy!

Shannon’s Got a New Look……

shannon — Wed, 15 Oct 2008 14:29:24 +0000

Yes, I’m no longer a blonde, well maybe a dark blonde but not what I’ve been use to for years. But I LOVE my new color. So we decided to head out to some abandoned railcars for a mini session of us. We hiked through a dry gully, tall weeds and walked the track to reach them. Course when we got there we realized all the cars were makeshift homes so we grabbed a few shots & left.

I wanted to get inside the cars but I didn’t want to disturb anyone. We had a lot of fun though!

Lisa & Bob’s Elegant Wedding

We had a wonderful time photographing Lisa & Bob’s wedding recently. Everyone was super sweet! In fact I think Lisa was the most relaxed bride I’ve ever seen with such a beautiful spirit too. Congratulations you two & we look forward to hearing about the amazing honeymoon!!

Elie Saab Gown

Love the details & how Lisa had them all intertwine between the gown, the shoes, bouquet & jewelry

First Baptist Church of St. Petersburg, FL

Bob's son escourted Lisa down the aisle

Lisa had a picture of her parents on the table so they could attend the ceremony in spirit. Very touching!

Intimates with Aymee

I had a great time photographing a Boudoir Posh session with Aymee recently. I love these first two because they have a sexy Mrs. Claus feel.

{ I can't believe how much she looks like Kim Raver from Lipstick Jungle in this one. }
