Tammy and Steve-O

Tammy and Steve are a really fun and sweet couple!
Steve texted Tammy a few hours before the wedding:

St William's has beautiful stained glass.
The reception was held at Wyndemere Country Club.
The flower girl and ring bearer found a baby bunny!

What a beautiful day! Tammy and Dad arriving at the church.

I love the bridesmaids' dresses! The color just popped in the pictures.

Sometimes we get lucky! The wind blew Tammy veil up at the perfect moment!

Walking back to the club. I love shooting frame within the frame!

Mom taking a much needed break. She worked so hard on this wedding!

The introductions were so funny!
Everyone came in dancing!

Helen photographed this closeup during the first dance.

Tammy's brother sang for the father daughter dance.
It was so touching!

Tammy and her dad!

Steve and his mom. I feel the love!

We are always trying to thinking of new ring shots.

It's a good idea to invite your hairstylist to your wedding. Mark Borg of Spada Salon and Day Spa in Fort Myers touched up Tammy's hair during the reception. He is a good friend of Tammy's and an incredible stylist!

Wyndemere's foyer was a beautiful spot for a few more formal pictures. Tammy was such a gorgeous, gorgeous bride!

Tammy's brother built this beautiful backdrop to the sweetheart table.
There were so many personal touches to this wedding that made it so special.
Thanks for including us in your special day.
Congratulations Tammy and Steve!

Lots of kids this week!

Just a few pictures from sessions this past week. I'm still working on all the proofs.
My good friend and mentor, Sara, is helping me with retouching the orders. Helen will be back on Thursday so progress is being made!!

Another busy week!

Sometimes I still can't believe how lucky I am to live here!
A dolphin came to visit during our family portrait session yesterday morning.
This family was so much fun!
I had a fun studio session with two year old Sophia and last night
I photographed a Mardi Gras Party!

Newborn Christopher

I changed the blog back because the big pictures were too much work!
I will add the spring specials in the next couple days so stay tuned!

I'm steadily catching up on all the proofs from the past week!

Here are a few pictures of newborn Christopher!

working on the blog

I love the blogs with the huge pictures so I've been working on it. It wasn't clear on the blogger website so I did a search and learned to change the html. I never dreamed I'd be changing html!! I'll be updating the blog with the March special in the next few day so keep checking back!
