It was a gorgeous day in downtown Pensacola for Suzy and Gene’s wedding. The ceremony was held in Bartram Park and the we walked across the street to the gorgeous Lee House for the ceremony.
Congratulations to the both of you!! What a pleasure it was to be a part if such an important day in your lives. I wish you all the best!
Again, a big thank you to Correne Sears for helping me document the day!

Karen and Jon

I have known Karen for quite some time now and when she told me she was getting married and wanted me to shoot her wedding, I was completely honored. Karen, Jon and I sat down and talked about their day. This was the first time that I had met Jon and I knew right away that he was perfect for her. You two are wonderful people and I am so lucky to be a part of your lives! Thank you for having me tell the story of your perfect day!
Thank you to Correne Sears for being the best assistant ever!!

The next group of photos needs some explaining…Karen’s father asked Karen to place her hand on the table. He then asked Jon to place his hand on top of hers and told him, “This is the last time you will have the upper hand!” Priceless!!

Courtney and Collin

It was a windy day at NAS for Courtney and Collin’s wedding. A very windy day, but that didn’t matter, their family and friends were all there to celebrate their love. After taking shelter in the Museum of Naval Avation to take some family photos, (it was tooo windy to take them outside!) we headed over to the Fish House for their reception. It was a perfect day for Courtney and Collin!
What a pleasure it was to photograph their special day! Thank you! Congratulations and all the best to you guys!

A big thank you to Correne Sears for coming along and getting some gorgeous shots! Thank you!!

Happy Halloween!!

Kaitlyn

Isn’t she just gorgeous!!!! I had the pleasure of getting to know this beautiful girl and let me tell you…she is one smart cookie! We talked about school and where she wants to go to college…then I asked her what she wanted to do. When she told me that she would love to do something with CSI, I knew I was hanging out with one smart girl!! She then told me that she is really great at Chemistry….my college nightmare course!
Kaitlyn, you are a gorgeous girl with a beautiful soul. I wish you all the best in school and I can’t wait to do your portraits again! I had a blast with you!!

August Body – Pensacola Rock Band

Jiuli — Thu, 08 Sep 2011 15:00:40 +0000

This was a very different experience for me…shooting photos of a band. I jumped at the chance after talking to Jeff and was so happy I did. I showed up to our discussed location and they had all kinds of great ideas. We had a great time shooting and we were able to get some really awesome shots!

Richie and Renee’s Ancramdale, NY Wedding

Jiuli — Wed, 07 Sep 2011 20:42:58 +0000

This was a very special wedding to be a part of. My cousin Richie married Renee on a cold and very windy day in October. I went home to NY to attend the wedding and brought my camera along. I was one of MANY people photographing their special day…there were cameras EVERYWHERE! I found a spot among all the other people and snapped away. I can’t even begin to imagine the amount of photos they received from their wedding! I wish I took a photo of all the cameras! The day was absolutely perfect and we celebrated their love.
There are lots of photos posted with quite a few of my Uncle Tom. He passed just 5 short months after their wedding. Uncle Tom, you are missed every day….we all love you!
