A Magical Day at Ever After Farms: Austin & Caitlyn’s Wedding
I recently had the pleasure of capturing Austin and Caitlyn’s beautiful wedding at Ever After Farms in Seffner, Florida. The day was blessed with soft, overcast skies, creating the perfect lighting for every special moment.
Austin and Caitlyn’s happiness was contagious, with both bride and groom beaming from ear to ear. Before the ceremony, they each shared heartfelt moments with their parents, exchanging meaningful gifts that brought everyone to tears of joy.
Ever After Farms was the perfect backdrop for this love-filled day, with its stunning fields, a tunnel of trees, and charming venue exterior. An antique truck parked out front and a flower truck on the side added even more magic to their photos. Though the rain briefly made an appearance just 30 minutes before the ceremony, it graciously stopped in time for the festivities to begin.
One of the most memorable moments was when Austin and Caitlyn shared a shot of whiskey just before their first kiss, marking the start of their new life as Mr. and Mrs. Garrett. During the reception, they wowed everyone with their flawlessly choreographed first dance, followed by emotional parent dances. DJ Jay Rigdon kept the energy high with his amazing beats, getting everyone on the dance floor.
The night ended in pure joy as the couple made their exit through a bubble-filled tunnel, running hand-in-hand toward their getaway car, surrounded by love and laughter. Congratulations, Austin and Caitlyn, on a truly magical wedding day!
Andrew and Nina’s Wedding
A few weeks ago, we had the honor of capturing and celebrating the beautiful wedding of Andrew and Nina at the Lao Art and Culture Center. The day began in a cozy Airbnb just a short drive from the venue, where the bride’s family and bridesmaids gathered to get ready. It was a calm and joyful morning, filled with laughter and anticipation— the perfect moment of peace before the festivities kicked off.
Andrew and Nina shared their heartfelt first look at the venue, and it was a truly emotional moment. Andrew was overcome with tears of joy the instant he saw Nina in her stunning wedding dress, a memory that will last a lifetime. Their ceremony was equally moving, with the love and support of their friends and family resonating through every word and gesture.
As the night unfolded, we danced the night away, with the DJ spinning classic hits from the 1980s. The energy was electric as guests sang along to Eurodisco favorites—a personal highlight for me as an 80s kid! It was a celebration full of love, music, and cherished moments, and I’m so grateful to have been a part of it.
Tony and Alice's Strength is in Their Enduring Love!
Congratulations to Tony and Alice on their wedding! Originally planned for the previous year, their celebration faced an unexpected delay, leading to a postponement to this year. On the way to the venue during a heavy downpour, Tony informed me about moving the ceremony indoors. However, upon our arrival at the bridal suite, the rain subsided, and sunlight emerged. Stepping into the bridal suite, I was enveloped by a positive atmosphere, created by Alice and her bridesmaids, almost as if they were the sunshine breaking through after the morning's downpour.
The wedding ceremony unfolded with a touching emotional depth, shedding light on the circumstances that prompted the postponement, evoking heartfelt emotions.
The subsequent reception was a lively affair, with everyone immersed in the celebration, dancing the night away. The captured photographs stand as a testament to the joyous moments, reflecting the exuberance of the occasion.
In observing Tony and Alice's journey, a meaningful lesson emerged – the enduring strength of true love in overcoming challenges. To Tony and Alice, may your love endure, now and always.
