A St. Augustine beach wedding and Jen and Bob’s love story is one for the books. Meeting in college and staying together through the years, they knew they wanted to celebrate their journey with an intimate beach wedding in Florida, surrounded by their closest friends and family. As a photographer, I was thrilled when Jen reached out to me, expressing her admiration for my work and the packages I offer. It’s moments like these that remind me why I love what I do – specifically, attracting clients who share my vision and passion.
For Jen and Bob, the choice of St. Augustine, Florida, was a no-brainer. This beautiful city offers a blend of rich history, proximity to the beach, and a plethora of shops, restaurants, and attractions. All in all, it was the ideal destination for their dream beach wedding.
Before their big day, I had the pleasure of meeting Jen and Bob during their engagement session in Orlando. Meeting clients beforehand not only allows us to establish a rapport but also helps them become familiar with my shooting style. It’s a crucial step in ensuring that their wedding photos capture their unique love story authentically.
As we arrived at Vilano Beach for the wedding, I was struck by its breathtaking beauty. The rocky jetty provided a stunning backdrop for Bob and Jen’s romantic beachside ceremony. After a private first look, where they exchanged heartfelt vows full of laughs, tears, and hugs, Jen walked down the aisle to meet Bob, who awaited her with love in his eyes. With their friend officiating, they sealed their love surrounded by family and friends, including their son – a moment of pure joy and happiness.
Jen radiated beauty in her gown, adorned with a necklace serving as her something blue. Adding a special touch, she incorporated a family heirloom – a worry bird passed down through Bob’s family – into her bridal bouquet. This traditional charm symbolizes happiness and luck, infusing their ceremony with deeper meaning and sentiment. I just love when my clients incorporate meaningful items into their wedding day. I love it even more when they share the meaning with me and allow me to capture it!
After the ceremony, Jen and Bob celebrated their wedding with champagne, capturing their joy and excitement. There’s nothing I love more than a champagne pop! Against the backdrop of the jetty, we captured epic portraits that will serve as timeless reminders of their perfect day. We had so much fun with these two and are so excited as they made it official! Congratulations Jen & Bob!
