Slacking....

I know, I know, the blog is lacking this week. I've been in Tampa all week and Avery has been really sick and now Rae is sick. Geesh! I have so much to share that I will get around to after I try to post two weddings today for my very patient clients.....stay tuned

Jo & Justin E-Session in Tampa

I am in Tampa this week working on my continuing education by taking a class on lighting techniques for professional photographers. Since I am in the area, I called up this cute couple and scheduled an e-session in the beautiful Hyde Park area of Tampa. You might remember Jo as the one who took the picture of me dancing with the bride last month at Danielle and Len's wedding in Pensacola. These ladies are all good friends and I could not wait to get Jo in front of the camera since she is the only one we have not photographed yet. They were naturals in front of the camera and we had a blast. They will be getting married in Bradenton, FL next April....

Imagine my delight when I found this red wall first thing!!!




This neighborhood is absolutely beautiful!










We headed over to Bayshore Ave so we could include downtown Tampa......


One of my favorites.....




They really were running for their life in this one at rush hour.....I think I only made them do it 3 times though LOL....


Thanks guys! I had a blast..... Wesley

Amy & Lem's E-session

We went back to the beach today for a fun session with Amy & Lem. The first thing they they told us was how unphotogenic they were and we were like, "okay, whatever". Hopefully these will change their mind! We are so lucky to live so close to such a beautiful beach. Anyway, they are getting married in Mobile in May and we hear it's gonna be a FAT party. We'll be the judge of that!

Happy Birthday Gran

Wesley's grandmother is turning 75 in a couple weeks and since she is going to be out of town, we decided to throw her a little surprise party at the Fish House before she left. She was quite surprised to say the least since this was her first special birthday according to her. She has alsways been the best grandmother whose love has never gone unnoticed, and it was so nice to be able to see her reach this milestone in her life. We have to give props to "The Cake Shop" for making this beautiful cake which was filled with a heavenly Bavarian cream and cream cheese filling. Our thanks also to Faith at Southern Floral Traditions for the matching sunflower arrangements on the table. I'm convinced we have some of the best wedding vendors in the southeast right here in Pensacola for those of you with upcoming weddings......





Wesley's mom and grandmother.....


Our last dinner with Wesley's sister and her husband for a while...they moved to Texas this week!


All the girls....

So hot, yet so cold!

Jennifer and Nathan drove over from Mobile to enjoy the beautiful beaches of Pensacola for their E-session. They knew they wanted to get wet and we were game! We planned this session originally a few weeks ago when it was still warm. Unfortunately it rained that day, so we rescheduled for today and we got a little cold front this week. They still wanted to get wet! They might look hot, but they were really REALLY cold....shivering cold!! Anyway, these two lovebirds are getting married in Mobile in April. Maybe it will be a bit warmer that day!

Our favorite new RED wall!






Love this one!


These eyes are to die for!


Doesn't this scream magazine ad? The afternoon sun glow was rockin'.




We had a great time guys....hot chocolate on us next time ;-)
