Angie’s Maternity Session on Honeymoon Island

The last time Jason saw Angie and Brent, their son was just one week old.  Now he is going to be a big brother!  Jason met their wonderful family at the beach for Angie’s maternity session.  Though they were a bit worried about the weather that day, the rain held off so their family could enjoy this time looking forward to the excitement of their new addition coming next month.  Jason can’t wait to see them all again for a newborn session!

Wedding at Honeymoon Island: Heather and Kevin

Heather and Kevin had their beach wedding on Honeymoon Island.  Angela was their Weddings on the Beach coordinator.  Dad was happy to work with Darla Stafford and Julie again.  They were there for hair and makeup.  The pink and white flowers were from Karnation Korner Florist.  The ceremony took place under a bamboo arch decorated with pink fabric and Deborah from A Florida Wedding Ceremony was the officiant.  At the reception Rick of Breezin Entertainment was the DJ and the beach themed wedding cake and cute groom’s cake were done by Chef Nelson.

The bride and groom had a wonderful time celebrating the start of their lives together with their family and friends.  Dad said they both had amazing families who were really happy for the new Mr. and Mrs.  Congratulations Heather and Kevin and we hope Mexico was an awesome time!

Honeymoon Island and Dunedin Engagement Session: Taryn and Chris

Taryn and Chris met dad at Honeymoon Island for their engagement session.  They took pictures in the greenery of the grass and trees and even saw a cute little bunny.  Taryn and Chris then went to the beach and waded in the water which dad said felt wonderful.  He wished he could have gone swimming!  The session ended in downtown Dunedin just after the sun set.  Dad said Taryn and Chris were great!  Their wedding is almost a year away but dad is excited to see them get married.  Thanks for a terrific session Taryn and Chris!

Honeymoon Island Engagement Session: Samantha and Christian

Samantha and Chris spent a morning at the beach for their engagement session with dad.  They went to Honeymoon Island and brought their dog along to enjoy the dog park there as well.  Their dog was a riot running around and having a blast!  Samantha and Chris were sweet together and didn’t mind all the kissing and hand holding for the session at all:).  Dad had them climbing on things, under things, and through things and they were great through all of it.  Dad is excited to see them both again for their wedding in May!

Kerri and Andy’s Wedding on Honeymoon Island and at Bon Appetit Restaurant

After such a silly fun engagement session with Kerri and Andy, dad has been anxiously awaiting their wedding and seeing what they would be like as a bride and groom.  They definitely did not disappoint.  Kerri and Andy made their wedding day a blast!  They were sure to be themselves on their big day and that makes the day special.  They are such an awesome couple.  Dad loves that they aren’t afraid to be goofy at times.  They made taking pictures so much fun!

They were married on Honeymoon Island with the reception following at Bon Appetit.  Cari from KyleLynn Weddings did Kerri’s hair and makeup, The English Rose was the florist, Rob Sword of Sword Sounds was the DJ, and Chef Nelson made their cake.  The wedding was the weekend before Christmas so of course red was the main wedding color.  Kerri’s red shoes were awesome and Andy wore a red shirt to match.  At the reception, the couple had their engagement session images printed with questions about themselves on the back.  Guests had fun looking at the pictures and trying to answer the questions.  Some were wedding related, such as where are the going on their honeymoon (Costa Rica), some were fun, such as what is their favorite flavor of ice cream (mint chocolate chip), and some were just silly and impossible to guess, such as how many pictures does Kerri have of Andy eating (13).  Guests were able to have more fun in the photo booth dad set up!  He used a red background to go with Kerri and Andy’s wedding color.  There was a dry erase board for guests to write messages in the pictures and some were hilarious to read!

It was a wonderful day for a wonderful couple.  We are so happy for you Kerri and Andy!  We hope you never lose your joy for life and love.  Congratulations and you two better keep in touch!

The Ketubah:

Kerri and Andy had a first sight so they had lots of time for bride and groom pictures before the ceremony.  Dad always loves when couples do this because it gives him more time to get a variety of creative pictures and keeps the couple from feeling rushed to fit the bride and groom, wedding party, and all family photos into the cocktail hour.

Pictures from the photo booth.  Be sure to call or email dad if you are interested in this add-on for your own wedding!
