Tim & Julia

Julia and Tim married on a perfect summer day at the end of June. They chose the willow tree for the ceremony and while the aisle was adorned with beautiful florals, they opted for no altar as to not take away from the natural beauty of the tree. The couple opted not to have a first look, so after the ceremony, we got a few portraits by the lily pond, before shooting family photos and bridal party by the water pond. After a quick stop at the rose garden for more portraits, the couple made their grand entrance into cocktail hour back at the lily pond. Finally, the guests danced the night away under the glass of the palm house as the sun went down.

Julia’s wedding inspiration was formal garden party. Her planner, Angel, of Green House Events, perfectly executed Julia’s vision. The bridesmaids wore a variety of dresses in pink, green and floral patterns with the groomsmen in black tuxes. All of the signage and stationery was made by our talented bride. The florals by Fern Botanica were absolutely incredible. Finally, Julia emphasized the importance of family.

The Girl Behind the Camera

KERI

A lover of taking photos and collecting memories since I was a little girl, I received my first film camera the Christmas I turned 14. Forever the entrepreneur, I would create newspapers and fashion magazines to sell in my neighborhood where I grew up. It was my version of a lemonade stand. I guess I was always telling stories.
