Lakira and Jesse’s Wedding at Leu Gardens

May 14th, 2012 by connie

Here is a sneak peek of some of the photos take at the Wedding of Lakira Bennett and Jesse Moscoso in Leu Gardens in Orlando, Florida. The Wedding took place on May 12, 2012. It was a beautiful day, and the Wedding took place in the Rose Garden. They were introduced by a mutual friend, and it was a great fit! Lakira says Jesse has such a great heart, and loves his eyes, his smile, and of course the cute little dimple he has! Jesse says he adores Lakira’s selflessness and the fact that she is an amazing nuturer. Hope you enjoy this sneak peek of their special day!!

Warrior Dash 2012 – Central Florida

January 25th, 2012 by connie

I participated in this year’s Central Florida Warrior Dash. The Warrior Dash is an extreme 3 mile run over rugged terrain, and contains a lot of obstacles you have to navigate through in order to finish. I have to say, it was a lot of fun, but harder than I thought it was going to be. I got VERY dirty in the process. While going through what seemed like a mud pit, I started sinking in the mud and lost my shoe. I had to dig into the mud and force the shoe out, then put it back on! There were about 12 obstacles from mud pits, swimming, cargo nets, walls, fire, and balance beams. I used a Go Pro Helmet Cam to record my experience. I have include the video here so you can learn all about it:

Sasha and Ardavan are Married! //Orlando Wedding Photographer

October 26th, 2011 by connie

Sasha and Ardavan were married at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Orlando, Florida on Friday, September 9th, 2011. Sasha got ready at Homewood Suites in Orlando, and arrived at the Crowne Plaza in style in a White Limo. She had a gorgeous gown, which came all the way from Russia. Rain was looming, but as I have noticed happens often, it held off so they could be married outside, as they wanted. We did get a little rain when we did out photo shoot with the Bride and Groom, and Bridal Party, but we were happy to be inside then. It was a beautiful wedding, and her family travelled all the way from Russia to be with her on her special day. Enjoy the photos of their Wedding Day!

Lakesha and Marc are Married! // Orlando Wedding Photographer

October 19th, 2011 by connie

Lakesha and Marc were married on September 10, 2011 at St. Marks AME Church in Orlando, Florida. It was a beautiful, and sometimes funny, Wedding Ceremony. Lakesha and Marc are a beautiful couple, and meant to be together. As you can see from his photos, Marc is very tall, but Lakesha says that is one of her favorite things about him, that and his work ethic. Her dream is to tour Europe and Africa for three weeks! I hope they get to do that!

Lakesha got ready at the Westin Hotel in Orlando. She had a fabulous make-up artist. She also had an awesome Wedding Planner, Shanae Hall, from Party Life Productions. The Reception was held at the Citrus Club in downtown Orlando. It was also a great location for a reception. And I had a great second shooter, Kim Warden. Here are some of the photos from their special day.
