The final Wedding of 2012 was for Matt & Rachele! Such a beautiful Couple! Mr. and Mrs. Parsons were married under the Milton Gazebo with their closest family and friends right by their side. It was Intimate and Warm. I adored the Fun personalities from them both! They truly are perfect for eachother!

Thank you so much to Mr. & Mrs. Parsons for having me. I wish you both the very best in the future!

Mr. and Mrs. Hodges were Married on November 17th 2012 at Antioch Baptist Church in Pensacola Florida.
I always give my couples the opportunity to write up a paragraph or two about how they met, what they love most about one another, and what their future plans may be.
Sharoy had this to say -
Quarius and I met in 2007 on Facebook. I was going into my 3 year as an undergrad and he was recently new to the city. Tallahassee that is. I remember it like it was yesterday. I was sitting in my apartment at my desktop-listening to music, painting my toes, and “studying”. I look up at the screen and i had received an inbox message from Quarius Hodges. we started chatting and shortly exchanged numbers. We had a 8 hour phone conversation that night. We talked about EVERYTHING that night. We had soooooo much in common. The one thing i remember most about that night is he was extremly funny. He made me laugh all night. After about a month of talking to eachother on the phone, we finally decided to meet in person. Our first “date” consisted of me and two of my girlfriends at the time. We all met at Olive Garden. It was an intreasting night! From that day, we have been with each other. He is my favorite person to laugh, cry and even argue with, lol! Very happy that God has given me a wonderful person to spend forever with.






One of the most beautiful things I have witnessed thus far in my career was Mr. Hodges SINGING his vows to his bride. Ahh… Incredible!







Thank you so very much to Mr. and Mrs. Hodges for having us Document your most special day!

Eden Gardens and Coleman Beach are simply one of the most beautiful places to photograph on the Gulf Coast!
My Dear Friend, Julia, wanted to catch up with me and have some special mother son portraits made before her little man, who is growing like a weed, grew any taller. If you are a mother with young children, you understand how hard it is to get yourself in a portrait with them..Right now would be the perfect time to consider having it done! Mothers Day is Sunday, May 12th, what better gift to yourself! Call me for this months booking special!



Thank you Julia for having me take these sweet portraits for you! I look forward to taking many more and watching him grow!
