Lakeridge, Florida

Sometimes your soul mate isn’t necessarily your countryman. At least that was the case for Robin and Jessica. Robin, a native to the United States met Jessica, a girl from Finland and it was true love. Not only is Jessica gorgeous, with a smile that lights up her entire face, but she’s also fluent in multiple languages and has the faintest, most endearing accent we may have ever heard. Robin had no chance at all of not falling completely in love with her. They’re the real deal. They have a silent bond so strong you can feel it instantly when they smile at each other. We can’t wait to shoot their wedding this weekend!

The harvest is in the late summer so the bushels were beginning to fill out. This reminds me of my summer in Salerno…

Lovely, green, leafy, grapevine bokeh…

LOVE it!

Those eyes! Robin didn’t stand a chance! ;)

Love this one too!

GORGEOUS

Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say ice.
From what I’ve tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if I had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice

-Robert Frost

Last night I went out with some of my ladies to see the midnight showing of Twilight Eclipse. While I’m not a superfan (Although I do favor Edward, What can I say? I like the broodiness.) I have read the books and I love seeing them translated onto the screen. And, in honor of the beloved saga that has captured so many of our hearts with it’s icy cold immortal grip, I thought I’d bring back this session I shot last year inspired by the gothic lure of the novels and vampires in general (to which I may have a slight obsession).

Saint Augustine, Florida

Catherine and Cory met up with Nate and I in historic St. Augustine for their engagement session. Nate went to high school there and his family lives there so it’s one of our favorite places to visit. There was an ominous black cloud moving in so we had to hustle but we had so much getting to know both Catherine and Cory better. As per usual, Nate challenged them to try some of the world’s hottest hot sauce at our favorite local shop, Pepper Palace and they rocked it. Even Catherine tried it! She’s a much braver woman than I. And, as per usual, I suggested ice cream from Kilwin’s as a finale. We can’t wait for their wedding on 10.10.10. They are actually the last couple we are shooting before we leave for our own wedding! ;)
