Meliss and Ed { Say I do }

Cloudy with a chance of rain was the forecast for the day, most brides worst nightmare. Melissa couldn't have been more calm, " I am marrying my best friend today, rain or shine"--I knew then that Melissa was the coolest bride ever. We laughed and shot around inside while things were gray in the gardens. Hours pass in a flash and we poke our heads outside, praying for sun. A perfect blue sky is what we found, showtime!

On a beautiful sunny Saturday in a gorgeous garden in bloom, Melissa married her best friend Ed. Their love is so natural and tender hearted, you can see their eyes light up and they exchange quiet giggles and adoring smiles throughout the ceremony. Guests follow a pebble path to the beautiful reception area and the party begins! Food, friends, family, drinks and dancing dancing dancing all night long. A perfect wedding in my book.

May happiness, love, and friendship always surround this couple in their new life together.

Boudoir

For those viewing that are unfamiliar with what a boudoir photo shoot is here is MY personal explanation:

--A MUST HAVE intimate, tasteful, and above all beautiful way to capture YOU! A boudoir session can be as wild or tamed as your heart desires. Dress it up or go natural, whatever makes you feel sexiest. A perfect gift for you or your special someone, to remind them just how lucky they are to have and hold you.

Many brides choose to have a boudoir session done as a gift for their soon to be groom. Many woman choose boudoir for a gift to themselves. Why not? You are beautiful, you are sexy and you are YOU--one of a kind and fabulous. Celebrate it with beautiful images that can forever remind you how beautiful you are and how confident you are in your own skin.

These sessions of course are private and will not be shared with the public domain. These images shown here are just a little taste of what a boudoir session can look like.

Ed + Melissa {Engaged}

Melissa, Ed and I strolled through the city on a sunny Sunday.......

finding quiet corners and loud buildings. Then stumbled into a quirky little book store that fit this couple to a T.

I look forward to shooting their upcoming wedding in a beautiful Botanical Garden.

Spring and Flowers in bloom....should be just fabulous!
