Thomas and Melissa- Engagement

Greetings All.

Here is a peek at my shoot with Thomas and Melissa on Sunday at the University of Florida campus. The weather was terrible leading up to Sunday so I was a bit worried but clear skies prevailed and we made some great frames at the Baughman Center and the stadium.

Luckily the gates were open at the Swamp and besides the dozen or so people playing on the field, we were able to get some cool shots. The stadium is not always the easiest place to shoot so it makes me even happier to see these.

BTW- Kudos to Thomas for letting us cover him in moss!

Brent and Kelly- Engagement

We did this shoot last week at Ginn Hammock Resort along Palm Coast, Florida. This is a great beach town between St. Augustine and Daytona Beach.

Brent and Kelly are a fun couple and we did lots and lots of walking around the resort and all it's great locations. As you can tell it is on the ocean so we got to take advantage of that as well. Here is just an appetizer to all the fantastic images we got.

Mike and Andrea- Engagement

Washington Oaks State Park is located along Palm Coast, Florida and it is unique because of its large collection of oak trees on one side and a gorgeous beach on the other. Great location!

There were so many great images from this shoot I just wish I had more room here to post the rest. You can see how comfortable they were for the shots and it really shows. Looking forward to their wedding next year in St. Augustine.

Jeremy and Brie- Engagement

I love this collection of images from our morning shoot on the UF campus last week. The happy couple were in town for the holidays and we fit this shoot into a very busy day for them. They are both Gators and wanted to have the images reflect some special places on campus. It was a gloomy day but the pictures are full of color and life.

Merry Christmas

......and Happy Holidays! Hope everyone had great celebrations and time with family (and away from work). We had a great Christmas Day and I am loving my new Ipod Touch. We went down to Orlando for a couple days this week and stayed at the amazing Gaylord Palms (5-stars with all the trimmings!). MGM Studios was fun and I brought back this cool image from the light show.

Hope everyone has a great New Year!

Foggy Morning

On my way to work today and thought I better shoot an image of all the fog that had hit the area. I stopped at the boat ramp on the way to Gainesville and found this guy getting ready to go fishing. Wish I could have hopped on the boat and gone fishing with him.

Justin and Jenna- Engagement

These two lovebirds are getting married next year in Michigan and I am sorry to say I am not shooting the wedding. Regardless, Jenna is a stickler for details and found a great photographer for their wedding. How do I know this about her you might say? Jenna came to work at the beginning of the year at the Gainesville Sun as an online producer fresh out of college. Being in the photo department we worked hand in hand. Well she single handedly transformed our online website and approach to the web edition and multimedia to a futuristic level and has been promoted right out of the building and into the NY Times corporate office......and the year is not yet over.

We shot these at the Thomas Center in Gainesville a couple weeks ago.

Good luck Jenna!
