Olga + Bill : Wedding

by 14 Comments

Have you entered in our Portrait Giveaway yet?! Time’s running out! :)

I’ve been saving this one for ages! In fact, Olga and Bill were married in April of last year. I absolutely adored everything about this wedding. :)  We started the day at the Hyatt in Sarasota, where Olga and Bill got ready. I wish all hotel rooms were like this – The huge windows made shooting a breeze!

As if Olga’s parents couldn’t be any cuter, their names are also Olga and Bill. <3

Stunning!

Olga and Bill held their wedding at the Ringling Museum in Sarasota. I’ve wanted to go back and shoot again ever since! Root couples- This place is amazing.

Getting the reception area set up:

Seriously- This place is GORGEOUS.

They performed a flawless choreographed first dance. :)

Nate was thrilled to be here for this photo.

All of Olga’s details were so classy… My favorite thing about their wedding was that instead of a DJ, they brought in a dueling pianos act. I loved it. :)

The end! :)

Sarah + Aaron : Wedding

Even though Sarah and Aaron’s wedding isn’t featured on our new site, Aaron is! He’s a groomsman in the intro video. :)  We were so excited when Kristen and Pippin’s friends asked us to photograph their wedding. We love shooting friends of past couples’ weddings because we love seeing familiar faces when we’re working! :)  Sarah and Aaron were married in beautiful St. Pete Beach, and we started the day off with portraits at the Sirata Hotel.

This is one of my favorite groomsmen shots- Someone told me it looks like a piano. ;)

Aaron was excited. :)

Ladies and Gentleman- The love of my LIFE! :)

Yet another first look couple! We’re lucky photographers. :)

We headed over to the country club and had plenty of time for photos. (Thank you for that, Sarah!!!)

Sarah and Aaron chose Beth Carrick of Flawless Occasions to coordinate their wedding day.

After a thumbs up and secret handshake with best man Pippin, Aaron was set to get married! :)

Still my favorite altar kiss. :)

Their first dance was to The Beatles- “And I Love Her.”

Congratulations, you two!!

Maybe you didn’t know about us when you got married and were left with less-than-beautiful wedding photos? (It happens!) Maybe you just want a head shot session for yourself? Maybe you’re just dying to see Nate climb a tree, or you wanna hear Jensey’s goofy way of making our brides laugh?
