Alexis and John's Wedding

A few days ago I got to shoot the intimate wedding of Alexis and John at the Grand Cypress. It was such a romantic event and their photos were really important to them so they allocated a nice chunk of time so that we could casually wander around the property together. I always try to let my couples just be themselves and not coach too much. Alexis and John were so into each other I hardly had to say a thing. There were several times that I think they totally forgot I was even there. They have been together for a very long time and now they are finally husband and wife. I am so happy they chose me to capture all of their emotions and special memories.












It is so hard to show with just one picture what we capture during an emotional ceremony, so I thought I would try this...





A split second before their first kiss. I just loved the emotion on her face, the way they are holding hands and the way he is touching her face. You just can't stage this kind of emotion.













There were so many incredible shots to choose from but I think this one is my personal favorite.



I've been to the Grand Cypress many times and I've never seen these hammocks before. I pointed them out and they were so cool to agree to use them. I think Alexis said Ooooooo can we really?!? It was lots of fun!









And I will finish with a nice relaxed portrait.
