OMGosh, where do I begin? I knew the minute I talked to Amber that we were going to totally hit it off….not only is she absolutely beautiful on the outside, but she’s such an incredibly sweet person on the inside, with fantastic taste! I only wish I could have spent more time with both Amber and Brian after their wedding day……they have this down-to-earth, natural and real vibe that really pulls you in. Hey guys…..enjoy the wonderful cold weather in Kansas City! And if you ever want to warm up…..come down anytime and visit! 🙂

Amber and Brian had a beautifully intimate wedding here on Marco Island. The weather cooperated, the skies looked magical, love was in the air and the day felt like it had been taken right out of an old love story carefully written on a manuscript from long ago.

For some reason, Amber and Brian really struck me as having this beautifully old love going on between them……it reminded me of Rene and I. These are the feelings that can’t be expressed in words…..and are what I hope I can feel every time I meet a new couple and they give me the honor of sharing in their very special day. Congratulations to you both……

Beautiful. Timeless. Classic.

I absolutely love this image of Amber’s father walking her through the Marco Island Marriot Beach Resort right before the ceremony….

The beach in front of the Marriot goes on FOREVER……powder-soft sand, a mirror-like ocean and colors that couldn’t be made up even if you tried….

After the beach, we moved inside for some fun portraits…….again. Beautiful couple in love = beautiful images = simple to take!

Their reception was held at a private house on the island……the exquisite cake was made by Kakes by Karen….and yes. That’s a full moon behind their cake on that beautiful night…..
