Stacie and Brian – Orlando Florida Couple Photographer

January 15th, 2012

Stacie and I go way back to my first year of college at IUP. Somehow, we both found ourselves in Florida! She and Bryan have been engaged for, like, ever, and decided they didn’t want to head into another year without being married. So they got hitched! No, really, just before the new year they went down to the courthouse, signed all the papers, and then met me in Celebration for a photo shoot!

Check out my new photo props! Lifetime Subscription is their adorable inside joke.

They also brought their own props!

Why does this always wind up happening when I do wedding photos?

Congratulations, you two!

Christine – Orlando Florida Head Shot Photographer

November 13th, 2011

Christine is an Orlando actor, and came to me because she needed new head shots. We met at one of my favorite parks in Orlando on a beautiful day for these photos. The weather has been so nice, and on this day it was pretty much the perfect temperature, with beautiful light. Not to mention that Christine brought this gorgeous blue dress that just made her eyes POP! I told her she should wear it to all of her future auditions.

Jessi – Olympia Washington Portrait Photographer

October 29th, 2011

Jessi is a friend of Stacy‘s (you remember Stacy and Joey, I hope), who is super adorable and owns a very chic little vintage clothing business called Currently from the Past Vintage. While I was in Seattle, Stacy made sure that Jessi and I got together for a shoot. She knew that I was looking to shoot and liked Jessi’s look, and that Jessi liked my work. I wound up driving down to Olympia and Jessi showed me some of the coolest locations I’ve ever gotten to shoot!

I know that Jessi has been patiently awaiting these photos. I would just like to thank all of my Seattle models and teams for their patience and understanding. It’s hard working a 40 hr/wk job, editing an entire wedding, AND having a social life. You have all been so understanding, and I very much appreciate it!

By the way, Seattle was the “Sheri puts pretty girls in trees” trip. Just a heads up.

How GORGEOUS is this jacket? I wish I could have taken it home with me!

Stacy and Joey – Seattle Washington Wedding Photographer

October 23rd, 2011

WARNING: This is going to be a very long post.

Stacy is one of my dearest friends. She and I met while working for the Mouse, and bonded over (among other things) photography and music. I swear, she might be the only person to have ever lived in Florida who understands my taste in music. Not only has she introduced me to one of my favorite photographers, but she’s also an exceptionally talented photographer herself. So when she asked me, during her last visit to Florida, if I would be her wedding photographer, I was nervous and ecstatic. Nevermind the fact that Joey hadn’t proposed to her yet. I’m not a wedding photographer, I told her. But she insisted, and I agreed, and Joey popped the question when he picked her up from that very same trip, and then it sank in: I was going to shoot a wedding.

Luckily, Stacy and Joey had complete faith in me. Which is awesome, because I have complete faith that these two were made for each other. Their love story is theirs to tell, but let me just say that the friends-for-years-then-falling-in-love thing is very near and dear to my heart. I love these two so much, and I can’t wait for them to come visit in December.

I also want to add that this was probably the most wonderful wedding I could have been asked to photograph. Not only was everything absolutely beautiful, but everyone was so incredibly nice! It felt like I was immediately adopted into this big, warm, loving family, and I’d like to thank everyone for being so wonderful, especially Stacy and Joey’s parents and families, and the entire wedding party. You guys rock, I can’t wait to come back and visit all my new friends.

This wedding was a very Etsy wedding, and Stacy requested that I note all of the wonderful details that she included from various Etsy sellers, along with their talented friends and family. I will try to link to every shop I can find!

Below images of Joey getting ready photographed by Kyle Coster!

I’d like to take a moment to talk about these boutonnieres. Joey made them, out of some of Stacy’s grandfather’s pocketwaches. That’s an example of just how creative and family-oriented this lovely wedding was.

Love this image.

The wedding ceremony and reception were at the Sole Repair Shop. It is an adorable venue, and definitely has that vintage feel that they were going for!
