Even on the beach, love stories are timeless in black & white. I adore the colors here in the tropics, but being able to literally stop time for these moments is a privilege that I will always cherish. #lovemyjob

Henry and Marilyn have been together for over a decade - since they were 16 years old! And I had the privilege of capturing their decision to make forever official on beautiful Anna Maria Island. It was their first time on the Gulf Coast of Florida, and Henry started planning his proposal well in advance to make sure everything was perfect. He even recreated a scrapbook that they had made in high school and filled it with photos and souvenirs from their adventures together - 🥹💓 We orchestrated him gifting the scrapbook to Marilyn on the beach, and then he proposed - it was seamless and so romantic! I had an amazing time spending the evening with these two, and helping to plan this special surprise. Henry & Marilyn - thank you so much for inviting me to be a part of your wonderful journey! Lots more to come here from this wonderful evening - and you can check out the full sneak peek album on my FB page. *uncropped images in stories, as always 😍

It's especially these moments that I want to give you back to remember forever. You are focused on each other, celebrating each other, fully present with each other. Smiling for the camera is wonderful (and I'll give you those moments too!), but I love the part of my job the most when I can guide the two of you to a time and place where your connection becomes unmistakable, and I have the privilege of stopping time to capture it. 🏝️💙💍

It was my absolute pleasure to be part of Colleen

It was my absolute pleasure to be part of Colleen & Glen's incredibly romantic surprise proposal and engagement session on Anna Maria Island. I had the honor of capturing each moment as Glen asked Colleen to spend her life with him, and they celebrated their lifetime decision, surrounded by tropical colors at the edge of the ocean. These two have such a beautiful connection, and the fact that they wanted to document announcing their news to their families right away was especially heart-warming. Colleen & Glen - thank you again for inviting me to be part of this special time in your lives! 🏝️💙💍 And thank you to Mercedes from @beachsidewedding for another wonderful creative & romantic collaboration!
