Wedding at the Palmetto Club: Amber and Jonathan

Sunday, January 29, 2012 11:09 pm

Amber and Jonathan had their engagement session last summer. Jason was happy to see them again for their winter wedding at the Palmetto Club. The day started at Ambiance Salon and Spa where Amber had her hair and makeup done. They then headed over to the venue where Amber and Jonathan had a first sight and then took some pictures before the ceremony. The wedding color was purple and the bride’s aunt put together some amazing floral arrangements. The bride’s bouquet was gorgeous and went perfectly with her Martina Liana gown.

At the reception the caterer was Puff N’ Stuff. The wedding cake came from Sweetie Pies Cakes and Jason loved the Angry Birds groom’s cake! The DJ was Cory from Grant Hemond. It was a fun night with lots of dancing and silliness with the photo booth props and sparklers. Amber and Jonathan are a terrific couple and we’re sure that married life is going to be wonderful for them! Congratulations to the bride and groom!

Family Session at Fort Desoto

Stephanie and Louis are just awesome people. Jason photographed their engagement session and their wedding but soon after they moved on to new adventures out of state. When they came down for a visit recently they wanted some updated pictures of the two of them and some pictures with Stephanie’s family too. Jason was excited to see them again! He met them at Fort Desoto and they had a fun morning together. Thanks so much to Stephanie’s family, Stephanie, and Louis for the session! We can’t wait for your next visit to Florida!

Nikki and Nathan’s Newborn

Thursday, January 26, 2012 11:33 pm

Nikki and Nathan’s newborn (I love alliteration!) was just a few days old when Jason went to his house for a session. The poor little guy wasn’t feeling his best that day but he got lots of love and cuddles from his mom and dad. Jason said they were a terrific family and so in love with their little boy. Thanks for having Jason there to photograph your new baby! The newborn stage goes by way too quickly.

This picture makes me laugh! A dog’s gotta do what a dog does – and come on, the smells coming from there have to be so new and interesting to him!

In Florida you can have a beach wedding in December and the weather is still beautiful! Jodi and Greg were married at the beautiful Grand Plaza. Their ceremony was on the beach with Reverend Tom Greene as the officiant. Heather of Rose Garden Florist was the florist and the beach theme continued with the wedding cake made by Cakes by Carolynn.

Every time Jodi and Greg looked at each other you could see how in love they are. They had the happiest smiles all day and they enjoyed every moment of their wedding. Jason loved being there to share in the celebration. Congratulations Jodi and Greg! We hope the happiness from your wedding day grows throughout your marriage!

Wedding at Sunken Gardens: Sylvia and John

Saturday, January 21, 2012 10:14 pm

When Sylvia and John stopped by a record store during their awesome engagement session it was just a little taste of what their wedding day would be. They were married at Sunken Gardens and their day had a really fun music theme! Desiree from Magical Plan-It Events was the planner and helped put all the details together. Jason loves working with David and Kristina of Trinity Wedding Video who were there as the videographers. They shared a Sneak Peek Film that helped to capture the wonderful day. Sylvia had her makeup done by Beautiful You Makeup. Carter’s Florist did the flowers for the day and the bridesmaids’ bouquets were pretty with black feathers under the flowers. At the reception the caterer was Amici’s Catering, Chantilly Cakes made the wedding cake which had music notes as part of the decoration, and the DJ was Richard Blade who came from California.

Sylvia and John are such sweet people and their wedding was a blast! The ceremony was just after sunset and the reception was a terrific celebration. Jason came home from the wedding with so many great songs stuck in his head! He said there was awesome music all night which you of course have to have when your wedding has a music theme. The tables were framed album covers from a wide variety of bands. Favors had a mini record attached that said “Take Me Home Tonight” (I love 80s music!) Guests signed in on CD info pages that were put into a CD case. On the tables were papers for guests to write music requests for the DJ. Kids had fun with legos and coloring books and lots of dancing. Jason was happy to see Jamie and Tristan who were guests at the wedding. It was such a fun night for the bride, groom, and all of their guests!

Sylvia and John’s love for each other and their kind hearts are obvious to everyone who sees them. We are so happy for them! Congratulations newlyweds!
