From the first few seconds of meeting Morgan and John, I knew they were a fun couple. What I didn’t know, was that their family was just as fun. A couple of weeks ago, we met for Morgan and John’s engagement session and had a wonderful time getting to know them. Thoughtfully, Morgan’s parents and sister came along to help take care of Gus (you’ll soon see in the images below, how the little guy tried to steal Morgan and John’s spotlight).

We are honored to be documenting Morgan and John’s upcoming December wedding. With Morgan’s attention to detail, the couple’s sweet personalities, and the overflowing love they share, I’m sure it will be an unforgettable event!

Thank you Morgan and John, for sharing your afternoon and lovely family with us.

Enjoy a few of our favorites from their session:

In a few short weeks, Avani and Ripul will be celebrating one of the most important days of their lives. To say that we’re excited for their upcoming wedding this April is definitely an understatement. Avani has painstakingly selected an amazing team of vendors and together they’ll be bringing this couple’s unique vision to fruition. We’re anxious to document every last detail and unforgettable emotion!

Recently, we had the opportunity to spend some time and get to know a little more about this sweet couple for their engagement session. Being that Avani is an interior designer and Ripul is a neurosurgeon we knew that MOSI (with it’s amazing architecture and areas dedicated to the brain/science) would be a perfect place to start their session.

A huge thank you to Jeannette and staff at MOSI for allowing us exclusive access to the breathtaking dome area and creating a wonderful experience for Avani and Ripul-they had a wonderful time!

We had lots of fun and many laughs with Avani and Ripul, even when Avani’s car keys ‘somehow’ got locked in their trunk. ;) It was an adventurous time to say the least and we hope you enjoy some of our favorite images from that day.

We’re all a little weird. And life is weird. And when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall into mutually satisfying weirdness—and call it love—true love.

Besides a unique spelling to his name, Keily (pronounced Kelly) has a way to make anyone laugh so hard that they may doubt their bladder control-especially his gorgeous fiancée, Nicole. She’s almost certain that 50 years from now she’ll need diapers, but that’s a risk she’s more than willing to take. We knew their engagement session would have plenty of laughs when we received this fun couple’s answers to our questionnaire. We were cracking up while reading over their responses! Nicole may hurt me for sharing this, but one of my favorite answers was Keily’s when asked about things that make him laugh about her. Keily described, ”How when she drinks soda from a can, one eye closes.”

You see, right then and there, I fell in love with this couple. They seemed all the more ‘real’ to me. Their answers made Khaled and I realize how many small details we love and laugh about each other. At that moment, we were not the only ‘weird’ ones in the world and we couldn’t wait to document Nicole and Keily’s unique love story.

When I asked Nicole what she envisioned for her e-session, I loved that she let me know what she wanted to stay away from: Nature. Although a picturesque garden might be lovely, that was not Nicole or Keily’s style. They are a modern couple that love the Miami scene, music, and you can usually find them enjoying their favorite yummy sushi at Origami Sushi.

The Grand Bohemian Hotel in Orlando was perfect with it’s artistic and musical touches. We found great spots throughout downtown Orlando and finished the evening with a scrumptious dinner at Ceviche.

We are so excited to share a few of our favorite images from Nicole and Keily’s engagement session with you and looking forward to their wedding in June!

Jessica and Jessie met 6 years ago while out with mutual friends but didn’t see each other again until years later when they walked down the aisle together…as best man and maid of honor for his brother’s wedding, that is. Destiny and their friends played an important role in these two lovebirds finally hitting it off and they have been inseparable ever since! Jessie adores everything about Jessica, including her 20 different laughs and how he can annoy her by interrupting when she’s in mid-sentence. On the other hand, Jessica loves teasing Jessie about being much more older and wiser then him, since she’s a whopping 2 years older, oh my! Spend a few minutes with these two and you’ll soon figure out that they are not only head over heels in love, but destined for each other.

Due to Jessie’s obligations in the Air Force, their December wedding had to be moved up to October just a few weeks ago. It warms my heart to see how Jessica and Jessie work together to stay positive and plan their special day. I know with their loving family and friends and their amazing attention to details, Jessica and Jessie’s wedding is going to be a beautiful celebration of their love. We are honored and can’t wait to be there to document every moment!

We had such a great time getting to know Jessica and Jessie a little more and capturing their engagement images at the stunning Bok Tower Gardens this month. Here are a few of our favs!

Matt and Alison can inspire songwriters to easily write love songs…seriously. Five seconds with this couple and you can see how much Matt adores Alison and he’s one lucky guy because Alison, is head over heels for him. If this engagement session could be wrapped up in a few words, it would be lots-o-love, lots-o-laughter, and snake skin, say what?! Yes, more on that a little later (ugh, I shudder at the thought)!

I must note that Alison is one of the most detailed brides I know! She is all about the small details and I absolutely.love.that.  It was wonderful to see how this gorgeous couple came up with ideas to incorporate in their shoot. Their genuine affection in front of our lens was magic and we feel humbly honored to have been able to capture those moments. I can’t begin to describe how amazing it feels when a couple trusts you to capture who they are and everything comes together perfectly in those moments to help you achieve that!

Saying that we are excited for Matt & Alison’s October wedding would be a huge understatement! I know with this couple’s attention to detail and confidence in making their special day uniquely their’s…it will be absolutely lovely!

Matt and Alison are also the winning couple from our Most Unique Proposal Contest last year! You can see their entry here and our (fun little attempt at stop-motion) announcement here.

Oh, and before I forget, about that snake skin, ugh…did you know that snakes climb up trees to shed their skin?! I definitely didn’t know that, until Matt kindly pointed that out to me as he pulled the skin off the tree next to us. Snake skin on a tree?! This city girl quickly had visions of snakes eating us alive and all I wanted to do was save my camera! It took every ounce of courage I had in my body not to run off screaming, although I probably screamed just a bit anyway.

Thanks for the adventurous day, Matt and Alison! See you soon (in the city)! ; )
