Brad and Nicole- November 28, 2009

Friday, December 18th, 2009

This adorable couple came all the way from Idaho in search of sunny skies and sandy shores and sure found it here in Cocoa Beach, Florida!  It was snowing when they left and  headed for Florida so the warm weather was very welcomed!  Nicole and Brad were joined by some of their close friends and family and their beautiful baby girl.  Their happiness was contageous and put all of us around them in a wonderful mood.  They were so much fun, so we extended the photo shoot, and took a little stroll of Cocoa Beach and met some of the locals and saw some of the sights.  It was a great time! and we’re so happy to be a part of their wonderful day.

Cheri and Rob- November 8, 2009

Wednesday, December 2nd, 2009

Rob and Cheri were joined by their closest family and friends on St. Pete Beach, Florida.  They left the cold weather in North Carolina to place their toes in the sand,  face each other and vow to become one.  The hurricane was upon us out in the gulf… came the next day.. and the winds were not so friendly, so it may have knocked over our glass container of sand (sorry Cheri!), but it did not scare us away.. and certainly did not stop this couple from the happiest day of thier lives.

We are honored to have shared this day with them, and it’s our pleasure to offer this sneak peek of the images of their wedding. Congratulations Cheri and Rob!

Melissa and Ricky-November 14, 2009

Saturday, November 28th, 2009

Melissa and Ricky came from Kissimmee, Florida to join their two separate families to make one big happy family!.. Melissa, with her lovely daughter, who so beautifully played the French Horn while her mother walked down the aisle (that was a real treat, and so unique-we loved that!).. and Ricky, with his adorable two boys, one of them stylin’ with a very cool mohawk! Under the warm sunshine and crashing waves, their family watched as they read their vows to each other.    We wish them all a long and happy future together!  Thank you for allowing us to be a part of it!

Michelle & Brent-November 3, 2009

Tuesday, November 10th, 2009

Michelle and Brent came all the way from Canada with a group of family and friends to get married on Cocoa Beach.  The ceremony was simple and lovely, and although the skies threatened rain all day.. it held out and made for a cloud covered yet cool day!  Michelle was a blue eyed beauty, and Brent the proud groom that couldn’t stop smiling the minute he saw her.   The setting was just north of the Cocoa Beach Pier behind the Best Western oceanfront hotel,  where it was quiet and secluded.   Here’s to your happily ever after Michelle and Brent! congratulations.
