So I’m finally able to make a post. November was an extremely busy month with weddings and engagement sessions. I had tons of photos to edit AND was working on the complete revamp of my website and galleries for 2009. Then, I had another wedding in December! So, I am finally able to wind down just a little (even though I still have 3 albums to design) and I can finally share some of these recent events.
After I got back into town from shooting a wedding in Naples, I had the extreme pleasure of photographing Heather and Wali’s wedding at the Jacksonville Zoo. I have sincerely enjoyed working with Heather since I first met her…not to mention she is a pleasure to photograph (can you say “natural beauty”?).
I started the day at the Crowne Plaza Hotel where Heather was getting ready.
Unfortunately, the weather wasn’t cooperating with Heather and Wali’s plans for an outdoor wedding in the Range of the Jaguar – so it was moved to a covered area near the entrance of the zoo. Although this wasn’t what Heather had planned, it was still gorgeous and everyone had a great time!
The wind kept blowing out the candles. I attempted to light them a couple times to at least get a good shot…but they just wouldn’t stay lit. So, I “lit” the candles in Photoshop afterwards. Oh, the tricks.
And the cake was absolutely stunning!
And, some silliness before the reception…
Before we headed back for the reception, we took the time for some photos of just Heather and Wali. We had the privilege of using the zoo for those photos!
And, the reception…
