Danielle and Brett are very near and dear to my hearts. Danielle and I worked together in Florida when I was still there, she was my assistant first and then became my second shooter at any wedding I needed one at. She is spiritual, loving, understanding, fun to be around, sweet as can be, and has become such a great friend to me. Brett is her counterpart. There is no question about it, I didn’t even have to meet him to know.
He contacted me back in April of 2011 I believe, about coming to Florida to shoot his proposal (which Danielle had been anxiously awaiting) and to say I was thrilled would be an understatement. Waiting all that time from the time he contacted to when it took place in August was torture, and most of all- keeping it from Danielle was the worst! Needless to say, everything went off without a hitch and we had beautiful weather and they were totally working the camera and then the magic happened. I have never seen Danielle look more beautiful than at that moment (and again, in her wedding dress). They are the perfect match and they are just blissfully in love. It makes my heart melt thinking about two people so head over heels and they are the epitome of that.
I was honored and truly grateful to have been there for their wedding March 3rd and am so very excited to share this with you. Danielle is a very hands on, DIY bride and her details were nothing short of spectacular. My second shooter Lynne and I were so excited to capture all of these things that Danielle, her family and friends worked so very hard on. Everything was gorgeous and the color palette was one of my favorites of all time. The moment that topped the day was easily- the moment Brett say Danielle coming down the aisle. He teared up a bit and that made my hormones (hello pregnant girl!) go nuts! It was a touching moment and I am anxious to share. Without further ado, enjoy these moments from Danielle and Brett’s Vintage Garden Wedding in Titusville, Florida.
Her bouquet was made by a bridesmaid and all out of fabric and beads. I was amazed at how awesome it turned out!
This is one of my most favorite getting ready shots ever.
I adore this shot.
So stunning!
Their dresses are just divine and the colors…ahhhh, love!
Taken by my second shooter, Lynne!
My favorite of the two of them!
Lookin’ great, guys!
These three were just the cutest!
such a beautiful moment as they take their first communion as husband and wife together.

Little bit of fighting over the bouquet, hahahah

She became my assistant and eventually, my second shooter. Over this time, we grew to be great friends. She is someone who is loyal, trustworthy, open and honest, and a woman of God. So many admirable traits that I find myself wondering what she would say or do in certain situations. She has had such a wonderful impact on my life, and I was so excited to watch her get engaged!
So beautiuful
They are silly, and crazy, and in love…and this is what love is like…
I love when they laugh.
One of my favorite images from their session, I just love it!
Danielle- you have the soul of an angel and you are even more beautiful inside than outside (and that’s tough!)
It was at this moment, I called Danielle over, pretended to fix her hair (to give Brett time to get the ring out), had her go back and close her eyes while I winked at Brett to say “It’s time”….
The glow and happiness can be felt right off this image. I swear…there’s nothing like it!
It looks good on you, Danielle. Love looks really great on both of you!
