Lily + Ryan = Married | Palm Beach Wedding Photographer

Lily & Ryan... sweet... young... passionate... and passionately in love... that's how I would describe them... in fact, I told Lily's mom that those two were so passionate for each other... and she had to agree... during their engagement session... and capturing their wedding... all the shots of them together, you can visibly see their passion and love for one another... and I absolutely loved capturing the fire between them...

My husband and I had a blast capturing their beautiful wedding... starting at First Presbyterian Church for their lovely ceremony... then over to the Beach Club of Palm Beach for their gorgeous reception... the day was filled with joy... love... and passion... how lucky of us to be a part of it... and lucky of us to have been their wedding photographers =) here's part one of my favorite images... enjoy...

hope you enjoyed... come back for part II... happy Sunday!

Happy Saturday!

I blogged my heart out all summer & everyday for two weeks straight, then totally went off the grid cold turkey... and for that, I apologize... this is going to be the trend for awhile... from now on (until next June) I will only have time to blog twice [maybe three times] a week... for those who don't know, last Wednesday was my first day back in school... as a teacher, that is... I had to put my teacher hat back on and refocus on the year ahead... as stressful as running a photography business & being a teacher can be... I just feel blessed being in two careers that I absolutely love... and in this economy... I feel blessed simply having a job at all... so I will definitely have a challenging year juggling two professions... but I have to admit... I enjoy the challenge =)

AND!! (I have to gloat just a little bit) I won 4th place at iheartfaces weekly challenge!!! Yay!!! Now and again I like to join the fun and enter their contests... which is centered on a different theme every week... last week's theme was "surprise" & with the perfect picture in mind... I just had to enter... and now, I'm glad that I did =) Yay!! How very cool!! Click the link to see the other winners =)
