We got shot…by professional photographers. Wow, what an experience to be on the other side of the camera. It was weird, but fun and definitely a good learning process.

Those of you who know me are probably aware that I wasn’t thrilled with my wedding pictures. Actually, I LOVED my entire wedding, except for the photos and the cake. So these are like the wedding pictures we never had. I am so thrilled with how they came out. We told Candice and Mark, the amazing talented photographers who took the photos, that we like stylish, unique and cool pictures as opposed to the more romantic, lovey-dovey stuff (which I actually really like shooting for my own clients, but it’s just not my personal style). And they did such a good job of capturing our style. That’s why I’m so happy. I feel like the pictures are very much us — non-traditional, fun, and a little crazy. :)

This was the BEST Christmas present ever… It was my gift to us because I just wanted a few pictures of when we’re still young and not that wrinkly or fat yet. Living out the best days of my youth with S. is something I cherish, and now we have some memories of these times on paper.

And all photos were taken at University of Tampa, where I went to school, or in Ybor City, a historic old Cuban neighborhood in Tampa, so that just made the shoot even more special.
