Warning: Lots of Pictures Ahead!

I have been a super busy girl, and I have been fortunate enough to photograph everywhere from Tampa, to Disney World, to Plant City, to Punta Gorda, and here in small 'ole Arcadia.  It has been fun and fabulous, and I have loads of pictures to share (and even more to edit and process at home).  The worst part in all of this is that I have been without internet for about a week.  Yuck!  I felt completely cut off from the world.  I couldn't drool over other photographers' pictures, I couldn't look up how to do certain edits in photoshop, I couldn't do my homework, and I couldn't play on facebook. Oh, the horrors of it all!  I have decided that internet is one of those things that I can never live without.  ;)

Now that the internet, and all order, has been restored in my life...I bring you these beautiful wedding pictures from Ashley and Will Free.  I love that they just let me do my thing, and I pretty much had free reign over their pictures.  They also did a first look before the wedding, and we were able to get some great bridal portraits before it got crazy.  It was a delight to work with them through the whole process! 

I think that I was able to get a good mix of formal portraits, fun candid shots, emotions, and details.  In a wedding, it's ALL about the details.  I love, love, love some of the facial expressions, shoe shots, and the funky camera angle while the couple was doing their first dance.  It caught a bubble that looked like a heart with no photoshop help at all.    The tired flowergirl is just precious, and I love the colors captured in that picture.  It was a wonderful wedding, and I wish Ashley and Will a lifetime of wedded bliss.

What to call this? Part II of Part II? The Continuation...







My Muse Part II

For my 6 readers and followers out there - you have seen most of these pics before.  I am trying to play catch up with some work from December.  I love these pictures and I am really grateful for the opportunity to get to try new things.  Practice makes perfect, right?  So, for those of you who have seen these before, I hope you enjoy them even more now.

Kelly was great in the studio, but taking her outdoors was awesome!  I love the natural backdrops and the vintage feel to this shoot.  What the pictures don't tell you was that it was incredibly windy and COLD outside!  We were hoping for bluer skies, but these came out awesome.  All the shivering was worth it.







There's still more to come!
