Have a wonderful day! Kal
A couple of weeks ago, I received a phone call from the creative director at Space Coast Bride and Groom! She said that they had selected one of our photos for the cover of their magazine!!!!!! I was so excited, I think I just said thank you about a million times. Space Coast is a wonderful magazine, and we are so honored to be on the cover :) Thanks so much!
Here is is!!!!
Lucy and Sal!!! A wonderful couple 
I looooooooove Senior Shoots because I get to work with a fun age, and I really enjoy the fashion aspect of senior shoots!
This super sweet headband that Spencer is wearing is a Cotton Swag original made by my friend Lacey! Check out her site and buy some sweet stuff
I shot Kara’s senior pics and now we’re shooting her and Brent’s wedding! It’s amazing how time flies. It’s my second time shooting Kara and Brent together. You might remember seeing their really urban shoot from a couple of years ago. Well I was really excited about their e-session because they are such a wonderful couple, and they are sooo natural together in front of the camera. I just love that!!! It’s amazing when a couple can relax and really be themselves: the moments are genuine, the smiles are real, you can practically hear laughter in the photographs!
We first met Mike and his guys and took a few getting ready pics.
This is Mike’s HUGE but veeeery lovable dog
The guys doing a little Beatles.
Isn’t Ana such a gorgeous bride!!!!??
We jumped in the limo with the girls!
That’s love…
The preview to the shot of the girls holding Mike up! I love it!!!
The reception was held at the super-delicious-and-cool Capital Grille! This is where Mike and Ana got engaged so it was very special and meaningful to have the wedding there. At the end of the reception, we went right into the wine cellar for these photos! It was soooooo cooooooool to get to do that :)

I just love shooting senior sessions! I love the fashion aspect of it, and it’s always extra cool when you get to shoot with really cool people…like LAUREN! This is a really cool girl, she is so pretty and so easy to shoot! Every pic was beautiful with this girl!
We shot at Rollins College. I had never been there before so apart from some photos that I saw online, I didn’t really know what to expect. It was beautiful. Big tress, amazing architecture, cobble stone streets, it’s near a big lake. They were having a big superbowl party out on the lawn and Brendan and I seriously considered pretending to be college kids to join in the fun. I was going to been Sally, an english major in Mr. Smith’s class…or something like that
Lauren, you are beautiful inside and out. You have a great future ahead of you all the best!
I love this pic, it’s probably my favorite of the day. I don’t know why I like the photos I like…maybe because she’s near the water and it looks peaceful.
What a great time with these two. I was looking forward to this session so much because I knew that Arshley and Stephania wanted to do something really cool and creative. I love that…when people want to try something different, or personal. Also, as you will see, they were super cool outfits. Believe it or not, that makes a HUGE difference to the look and feel of your photos and the “vibe” they give off.
You might remember Arshley and Steph from their proposal shoot as well as Arshley’s Art Shoot. I can’t wait for their wedding!
What a fun e-session! We are really looking forward to Karina and Ryan’s wedding in March. It was great to spend some time with them and get to know them a little. Karina is so beautiful and her smile and laugh is so lovely- it lights up the photos. Ryan is a wonderful compliment to her. Here is a little about them in their own words!
1. Three words that describe us: sarcastic, playful, fun.
2. How did you meet? We met at work 9 years ago. Karina didn’t like Ryan at first, she thought he was rude and stuck up, but he quickly won his way into her heart. Specially when she found out he was also a dog person :)
3. Favorite thing to do together: fall asleep on the couch while watching tv (with our dogs of course). We also enjoy traveling together.
4. What are you looking forward to? We’ve been together so long that we are looking forward to finally being husband and wife, starting a family and just growing old together.
Ryan loves golf.
Karina loves sweet heels (I think)
We shot at the South Florida Fair!
The ride flying past our heads
