Camille- A Walk in the Park!!!

Some things in life are just meant to be. That's how I feel about Camille. From the moment I met her I fell in love with her positive attitude! Her electric personality and the way her energy is just contagious...you just can't help but laugh and smile. Seriously, she has this way of brightening your day (like a shot of straight sunshine!) no matter how you feel or what stress is on your shoulders. Not to mention her heart for volunteering and the community, she really is one in a million!I can not say enough how VERY excited I was to do her shoot, I knew with Camille that it would be a blast! So, here are some images from our walk in the park at Memorial Park in Jacksonville.
Thank you Camille for being so lovely inside and out (and sooo much FUN!). I am so thankful that I decided to go to the PWC meeting and that God placed you in my path, what a wonderful friend! Love you! Hope your husband LOVES all the pics!P.S....if you are a small or large business (or have friends or family) in need of a creative jolt for marketing, a refreshed business plan or just to have an incredible pick me up, contact Camille. Her consulting company, Outside The Box can help!

Michelle & Brad's Wedding!!!

The soft breeze rustled the canopy of trees overhead of The Hilltop Club's brick terrace as Michelle walked down the aisle.
Amid the company of family and friends, the couple exchanged vows and shared their first kiss as husband and wife! Each wedding Adam and I are blessed with, we continue to be thankful for such kind and wonderful people who are in love and just plain fun to be around!
Michelle and Brad (...and friends + family) thank you so much for a great evening and for inviting us to capture your most precious moments :)

Luck of the Irish- Guinness unveils new Anniversary Stout!

Sneak peek behind our corporate filming and production shots for Guinness at Lynch's Irish Pub (Jax Beach) ... Video by Ed Roy coming soon!
Tonight, Lynch's was the place to be! Celebrating their 250th anniversary, Guinness put together an amazing launch party for everyone at the pub...live music, great company and the introduction of the Limited Edition 250th Anniversary Stout was given by non other than Champion Golfer, Jim Furyk !Jim tapped the honorary first keg and served pub patrons who cheered him on at 5:59pm. Everyone one raised their glasses and toasted to the anniversary of one of the top international brands of beer...250 years and counting...Cheers!He also graciously signed autographs and made his own rounds greeting and welcoming everyone at the pub. He was an absolute gentlemen all the way, the kind of guy you want to have a beer with (ha!).

Jim even singed a single dollar bill to add to the pub's collection...

Happy Birthday Brock!

"The making of friends, who are real friends, is the best token we have of success in life." - Edward Everett Hale

One of the things we are so thankful for in life (and there are many) is friendship. We have grown up together (some as early as first grade!) and now our kids are growing together and outnumber us. I knew the day would come but did not expect it to come so soon.
Jeremy is one of those friends. We grew up just a few houses down from one another and I was pretty much the only girl in a neighborhood full of boys. Dirt roads, bare feet and lots of bike rides made up most of our childhood playing together and going to each other's birthday parties year after year...now it is our children's turn...

Brock celebrated his second birthday this year and of course The Brown's were there to liven up the party and help him break in all his new toys (and eat cake, ice cream and candy...)
Always the photographer, I brought along my 70-200 to sneak up on the kids without them knowing because that is when they are at their best.
We love you Jeremy, Kerri and Brock thank you for your wonderful friendship!!!

Jeni & Eddie's Wedding :)

Today Adam and I shot Jeni and Eddie's beautiful wedding at the Hilltop! Jeni was absolutely beautiful in her classic dress and original hairstyle.
I can not wait to get more pictures up, but for now here is a little sneak peek...
I have to say that one of the things I love most about wedding is just being around a couple who are sooo in love. And Jeni and Eddie are definitely one of those couples.
When we met the fist time I just was amazed at how they looked at one another, that is exactly how they were today...so in love! We wish you two the absolute best in life and thank you so much for inviting us to share today with you...Stay tuned for the slideshow coming soon!
Have a great honeymoon and see you soon :)

Easter Vacation

This Easter we not only celebrated the best gift that God has ever given us (Jesus!), we also celebrated being together as a family with a little get away to Myrtle Beach, SC! This was the first vacation we have taken in a long time as a family and because there was not internet in our rooms I did not work and made it to bed before 11pm every night (for real...I know what a shocker!!!).

It was wonderful! All we did was whatever the boys wanted...

Fly kites on the beach and have a squirt gun fight...
Hunt Easter Eggs, Mini golf with dinosaurs... Hung out at the kids mini water park and pools, pizza for dinner and baseball game with their Papa Brown....
And more Easter candy and presents than two little ones knew what to do with!
Noah was sooo funny, he would not take off his Yankee's hat for anything except the pool...he even napped in it...I guess he really is a New Yorker at heart :) Adam's Dad came from New York so his drive was much longer than ours, but with our new plan of traveling late afternoon so the kids could nap and watch movies after they played all day seemed to really work well.

...So now back to reality I am catching up on everything that was on hold while we were out of town. Many new posts will be coming soon and lots of pictures as well as a new peek at my new online gallery, very exciting...

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend with their loved ones as well, God Bless!
