It was our first trip to the Delray bch Golf Club for Saturdays wedding. There arent that many venues that we havent been before, let alone a Donald Ross designed golf course!! We arrived to find Beth and her staff quite attentive and caring as they took care of every need for Amy and Alex’s big day. Understandably, they had the ceremony in the ballroom to avoid the hot summer sun, but we did manage to get out for a few pix on the course before retreating to the AC for the rest of the reception where Jimmy D, from Paragon Entertainment emceed the nights proceedings all night long. You can see all their pix HERE; but here are a few favorites from the day!! Feel free to show em some love in the comment section too!
here’s an infrared look at the clubhouse
Mom looks on as Amy dons here dress

Here’s an example of one of our new custom photo thank you cards we just made for Tiffany and Tony. Take a look and I think you’ll see why they are such a HUGE hit!!

The summer golf tournament season is heating up. Yesterday at PGA National, was my first of the summer, and the rain delays made it even worse. We got delayed 3 times in one afternoon. The course was in terrific shape as usual though, and even after the rains it was very playable. I managed to play fairly well, but didnt make some 5-6 footers for par that would have made my 82 a little more impressive. Anyone wanting to join in the fun just go to Here, and the details are all there under the outings heading. Enjoy, and hit ‘em straight!! Brad

We had several folks asking us about the cover shot selection for the next issue. So here it goes. It was a really tough choice this issue, since there were so many really incredible options. (Thanks to all our brides 
) Anyway, this shot of Roxy has absolutely dominated the season, so it just had to be the cover. Let me know what you think!

Well, heres another example of why Benvenutos has become one of the premier venues in Palm Beach County!! Top Notch Service…..they wrote the book. That was the setting yesterday for Kerry and Kelbys big day. I happen to be rather fond of June 14th as well since its also my anniversary too!! (22 yrs). DJ Ryan from Kenny Mondo Productions emceed in fine fashion…including mixing in a few of his own original tracks!! (He’s an up and coming Country Music singer himself!!). After the event we scooted back to the Ritz Carlton hotel for a little quickie session on the beach (although there was almost no beach left 
Anyway, congrats again to Kerry and Kelby, and you can see all their pix HERE. Feel free to leave your comments below too!!
Mom’s walking Kerry down the aisle….not sure who’s more nervous

You may recognize Tiffany and Tony from their engagement photos. That was quite a shoot, so now when it came to their actual wedding day, we had to wonder just how in the world we would be able to top the images we had already done…..Well, just add in some extraordinary scenery, add in a little infrared, pour in a horse and carriage and dress them up in their wedding day finest, and well you pretty much have the formula for an incredible day of photographing….which is exactly what resulted Saturday!! We actually started in Bartow at The Stanford Inn Bed & Breakfast for the prep shots, then on to the Historic Bok Sanctuary and Tower for a surreal outdoor ceremony, and then after a quick carriage ride, they ended up at La Bella Torre, for a quaint little reception. DJ Lou from Paragon Entertainment provided the emcee and entertainment for the evenings events and kept the crowd on the dance floor all night long. Almost at the end of the evening, we decided to go out for a quickie photo session in the little downtown area, and wow, glad we did….some incredible images developed there too!! Congrats again to Tiffany and Tony!! Now to try to pick out some images to post…can you post 500 here??? Oh well here goes.
sort of like getting married on the set of Lord of the Rings!!
having some fun with infrared, in a setting built for infrared capture!!
more IR fun

Saturday, we were back at one of our favorite venues on the Treasure Coast, Harbour Ridge CC for Tina and Dan’s big day celebration. But first we started off at the house for some quick getting ready shots, then off to the St Martin Deporres Catholic church in Jensen Bch to get them officially married!! After that they jumped into a super limo from Cobblestone Limo and off to Harbour Ridge we went where Teresa took over the reigns and provided her usual great service and attention to detail thats hard to match!! Jimmy D from Paragon Entertainment, worked his magic on the crowd and danced em till they dropped!!! Congrats again guys!! To see all the pix, click HERE
more beautiful flowers from Barbara at Country Club Florists!!
not a shot I’d normally have picked, but when i saw the Crucifix behind her, I had to grab this shot of the wonderful singer at the church….what a voice she had too!!
A cool infrared shot on the boardwalk leading down to the docks at Harbour Ridge, one of the most photogenic and relaxing walks found at any reception venue!!
feel free to show Tina and Dan some love by leaving them some comments below!!

Friday’s are getting more popular than ever here on the Treasure Coast, partly due to the lack of available venues….especially on Saturdays in the spring. This Friday was no exception, as Britt and Brett tied the knot on the beautiful wide waters at Indian Riverside Park. It was a wonderful breezy afternoon setting as they said their vows, then upstairs for a great reception hosted by DJ Lou from Paragon Entertainment who emcee’d with his usual flair!! The food was presented by Creative Catering and was a delightful treat as well while Karyn and the staff tended to everyone’s every need for the entire evening. SEE all their pictures now HERE!!!
As you can see there was a nice breeze blowing in off the water.
One final serenade for our bride!!

Well, even the best laid plans……as they say. For months Liz and Brad planned to have their dream wedding on the top deck of the Lady Windridge Yacht while cruising the intra coastal waterway at sunset. All of which happened Saturday, except for the sunset part and the top deck part. The seasonal rains started early and came often driving the party to the safety of the lower decks. Still, it ended up being a great time for all, just a different version than the one in the mental picture of a yacht wedding. As you can see from the pictures, everyone crammed into the 2nd level sitting area for the ceremony, and then had a wonderful dinner on the 3rd deck. The weather broke just enough to allow some partying for those that didnt mind a sprinkle or two before returning to port. Now Brad and Liz are on their way to Tahiti for a grand honeymoon!! See all their pix HERE
as you can see…the ever present videographers were everywhere….
this is the lower level which served as our “chapel” for the ceremony.
the rains let up just enough to allow us a few nice shots up top. You can see the campers on Peanut Island in the background for the busy Memorial Day weekend.
a nice tender moment from the father/daughter dance, albeit tempered somewhat by the dueling videographers spotlights.
ehhhhhhh…well, i guess they couldnt decide which way to shoot…..
the party raged after the rain let up a bit!! Congrats again guys!!!

Hey everyone, just a quick heads up that we are in the process of changing the company that hosts our online images for us. Please bear with us during the transition. For the first couple days, no orders are able to be placed via the system. However, you can order anything directly thru us via email. The new company reports that online ordering should be operational Friday….lets hope. If you have any questions or comments please feel free to give us a call or shoot us an email!! Thanks again for your patience.

Once again this weekend, we served as host for a Destination Wedding. This time the bride and groom were in from the Big Apple. Lori and Jason zipped down for a day with the swans at the Embassy Suites on PGA. Dalsimer-Atlas Florists really transformed the lobby into a tropical getaway for the ceremony and then really outdid themselves upstairs for the reception. DJ Mark from Kenny Mondo Productions emceed the afternoons events and kept everyone dancing throughout. Check out the dress Lori had on….she designed it herself!! Now thats a true talent for sure!! Now its off for an exciting honeymoon in Italy, so congrats again guys!! You can see all the images from Lori’s wedding now by going HERE

Just in from the Windy City for their wedding at the wonderful Jupiter Beach Resort, Evelyn and Kurt took advantage of the cool ocean breezes for their nuptials by the sea. With a contingent of about 20 friends and family, they gathered near the gazebo with the ocean as their backdrop. All in all, it was a beautiful, intimate occasion, and one which will bring lasting memories for our bride and groom. The staff at Jupiter Beach Resort was there for every detail in their usual amazing fashion. Its no wonder they are one of the top Destination wedding venues in the country. Congrats again to Evelyn and Kurt. Don’t be shy, show em some love in the comment section at the bottom of this post!! If you want to check out more of their pix go HERE!!

The beautiful Morikami Gardens in Delray was the backdrop for Saturdays sunset wedding. Everything took place all on the grounds, and what a gorgeous spot it is. On the steps in front of the pond, Rev. Paul Underhay officiated in his usual grand fashion while his wife Esther took care of the Elegant Harp music in the background!! Once they got inside the Kenny Mondo’s crew took care of the music for the evening as well. Now they are off to Greece and Italy….wish we were going along for that one!!! You can see the rest of the pix now HERE. Congrats again! Brad

Had a great time yesterday photographing golf legend Greg Norman during a small golf outing at the Medalist Golf Club for a group of folks from his Greg Norman Collection sportswear company. Greg got to play a hole with each foursome, then after some awards, on to dinner and drinks and such after.
