Rock the Dress: Michelle & Matthew | The Highland Manor |Apopka

I love doing creative shoots for clients and I was so happy when I spoke to Michelle about doing her 10th anniversary Rock the Dress Session. Michelle and Matthew are big horror and Halloween fans and I knew that we would have a lot of fun incorporating this into their session. We spent some time together to concept their session and then pulled in the creative muscle Laura from Gathered Events to make this real.

Working with Laura we selected The Highland Manor located in Apopka, Florida for this spooky session. For those of you who don’t know, Highland Manor is a historic home on 11 acres. The site is beautiful and many weddings take place their each year. They have an incredible lush forest on their property and that’s where we set the stage. Laura gathered her inspiration from Tim Burton and some antique Gothic decor, creating what she likes to call “Living meets the Dead…”.

I hope you enjoy this special Halloween feature!

Rock the Dress - The Highland Manor

I just love how lush the forest area is and the trees line up perfectly into a green covered canopy.

The white rustic farm table and benches from A Chair Affair were an awesome touch for this set-up. I loved it!

Featured: Borrowed & Bleu | Lauren & Kieran | Wedding

What a honor to have Lauren & Kieran’s St Pete Beach, Florida wedding featured on the Borrowed & Bleu blog today.

Last fall we had the pleasure of photographing the joy that was Lauren & Kieran’s wedding and it was amazing how much love and support these two had. They flew in from Denver Colorado and their friends and family flew in from all across the country to help celebrate this special time in their lives. They were married at a private park called Boca Ciega Isle Mini Park with a beautiful waterfront backyard reception.

See the full post on our blog!

I hope you enjoy~

Engagement: Jamie & Justin | Orlando Wedding Photographer | Cypress Grove Estate House

I am so happy to share Jamie & Justin’s engagement session. We took a trip to the beautiful Cypress Grove Estate House for this end of summer outdoor engagement session.

Jamie & Justin are such an awesome and laid back couple. We met for their session in late August and spent some time walking and talking as the sun began to set. And speaking of awesome, their sweet daughter Madilynn came to take some photos with us and she had a great time running around at the Estate House lawn. She is a beautiful girl who is so full of life and I am sure Jamie & Justin will have their hands full as she gets older!

In case you don’t know about the Cypress Grove Estate House, it is a vintage 1925 estate that sits on Lake Jessamine. The location is a favorite for Florida brides for engagement sessions, weddings, and receptions. This location was special to them as they will be getting married there in August of 2014 and I am looking forward to being their wedding photographer.

The theme was styled and designed by Laura of Gathered Events. She said that the design was “all about bright and happy colors and details. Being newly engaged is such a fun time full of excitement and love and our set-up was designed to reflect those feelings.”

I hope you enjoy this session as much as I do!
