Boudoir Event Sold Out!

I am sorry that I did not have a chance to post this any earlier but I wanted to let you know that our November boudoir event is SOLD OUT!  Our phones have been ringing off the hook and many of our brides have convinced me to open another date…. so keep a lookout for a January date. Three slots for the January event are already taken and we have not even selected a date yet! I will be updating the Blog as soon as we have narrowed down a date and time. I know it seems a bit early to be talking about Valentine’s day but what can you think of a BETTER PRESENT?

 

 

Reunion Hotel in Orlando

Melissa and Ben were married in Orlando at the Reunion Hotel. Because we have shot weddings for many of their family and friends it was amazing because they made us feel like a guest, like we were part of the family. Thank you for the amazing review on wedding wire and you guys were hot stuff yourselves! THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING!

Ok… Give Us A Little Credit… We Made It Off The Ground

Many years in the making and we finally did our first company photo shoot. Thank you to Andy Martin for taking such amazing pictures, Linda with Saving Faces for our beautiful airbrush make-up, and Nichole Rappa for our fabulous hairstyles. Thank you also to our amazing staff… you are not only gorgeous but you are caring and hard working. I had so much fun taking an entire day off from work and just hanging out with one another. Thanks guys!

Heritage Pines

Meredith and Mike were such a fun and outgoing couple. Michael and Andy had so much fun shooting their engagement session they asked them to go out again and be Life Long Studio models. When you see them together it is apparent that they are so perfect for one another. Thank you for showing us such a great time and making us feel like family!

A Sound Decision – Home Theater Specialists

(This is Mike) I had the pleasure of working the most incredible Home Theater company yesterday. They took a plain square white room and turned into a movie room.

Then they hired us to come shoot it for the upcoming issue of DuPont Magazine.

Here are the HDR images for you to look at.

PERFECT WEDDING GUIDE COVER SHOOT

We finally did the cover shoot for the perfect wedding guide….. well it was over a month ago but I am a bit behind on the BLOG. A big thank you to Demetrios bridal, Michele Renee who did hair and makeup, our fabulous model/ bride Christina Theodoracopoulos, Pam Bloomgren the stylist, Boutique Jewelry by Ronni, Rose Garden Flowers & Gifts, and of course The Perfect Wedding Guide. They all showed up at the crack of dawn at the studio but the energy was amazing after a hard day of work and over 5 different outfit choices the result can speak for itself.

Candace & Anthony

Candace & Anthony were married in the quaint little town of  Tarpon Springs at the St Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church. Although we felt a bit more pressure than usual because of the fact that Anthony is also a photographer, he and Candace were both so calm and relaxed that Michael and I did not feel like we were at a wedding at all. I remember looking over at Michael after the bride was dressed and asking him if he was sure this was a wedding. There was not an ounce of stress in the room. Even when the rain dampened our plans of shooting outside after the ceremony the two took it in stride. Thank you both for your enthusiasm and I can’t wait for the back in the dress session! Thank you also to the Safety Harbor Resort and Spa the reception was beautiful! Fransua who is the Catering Manager at the hotel also volunteered to be the gulfcart caddy to personally  make sure we were able to shoot at all of the various locations on the property. Flowers by Jenny did such a beautiful job creating the bouquets and centerpieces. Michele Renee Hair and Make Up did a fabulous job as usual. Chef Michael at Let Them Eat Cake was in charge of the masterpiece they called a cake. As usual Just Outstanding Entertainment was able to get guests off from their feet and dancing around the floor!

Out Of The Office

Hey everyone. Buffy and I will be out of the office until Wednesday, Sept 23rd. We will be in St. Augustine for a couple photo shoots.

Ben & Melissa

Mike & Buffy –

We consider ourselves very blessed to have crossed paths with the two of you.  After having seen the photos from Kelly and Adam’s wedding, there was no question in mind as to whom we would want as our own wedding photographer. The engagement session went tremendously smooth and we were so glad to have taken you up on your recommendation of the location.  It’s so mind-easing to know that we can feel comfortable enough to be ourselves around you, and that in itself is very evident in the photos that you captured.  Every picture is a treasured memory and I’m so excited to know that I’ll have them to look at for a lifetime! (I can’t even wait for the wedding pictures!)

Thanks again for your flawless work and for your willingness to always go the extra mile; you both are so much appreciated!

Love, Melissa & Ben

Melissa & Ben,

We love you too. It is so much to photograph two people who truely love one another! Thank you for being soooooooo wonderful and making us feel as though we are a part of your family. We feel blessed to have gotten to know you.

Buffy & Mike
