I love leaving a wedding knowing that the pictures that I created that day are going to make my bride feel amazingly beautiful. If I can capture that look.. that emotion.. and her not even realize it.. I know that my work is done! She needs to feel more beautiful on that day than ever before, and it is my mission to make her see it! I love people... and I love what I do!
I also love {in no particular order}.. my two little boys {Austin & Bradyn} which I am sure you will see alot of on this blog, weimaraners, sports {preferably ones Austin is playing!}, my family, GOD, reading, watching TV on my DVR {is there any other way!}, my husband, flying on airplanes, New York City, Belize, inner city-missions, my Tampa friends....

Well... I ditto Courtney. I never thought my family and career
could be filled with so much passion, excitement and adventure. Being
able to work with my family, including the up and coming photographer,
Austin Craver, {he has a "business" called Austin Photographers
already} is a dream. We have also been blessed to work with the most
fun and sincere couples around!
David and I love that we are
able to work together in a business that is full of happy people full
of love! We are so honored when a bride and groom chooses us to
capture their day.. we know what a HUGE responsibility it is! Thanks
for checking us out and we are excited to hear from you!
We have been meaning to get a video preview on our site! This is a sample of Brittany’s Seaside wedding. We offer eight hours of wedding day coverage, so this is about one minute out of four hours of footage:)
* NOTE: OUR WEDDINGS ARE SHOT IN HD, BUT THIS ONLINE VIDEO IS COMPRESSED AND NOT PRESENTED IN FULL HD.
Courtney & I love working with other wedding professionals that are talented & trustworthy. Devon Warner comes to mind when I think of who I love to work with. He is truly the most personal & exciting officiant that Courtney & I work with. He came to mind today when one of Courtney’s brides waited too long to book him:( Check him out at AWarnerWedding.com! Here are some pictures of him during a rainy October wedding. And yes…Courtney & I shoot in the rain:) Equipment can easily be replaced, but memories can’t. - DAVID

David & I love when our clients send us raves It is also nice when a bunch of our brides vote for us! Wedding Wire just put us in the top 5% of photographers!
I know that Courtney and I have not been updating our blog on a daily basis, but it has been nice taking time off! I was getting a slideshow ready when I came across these pics. Many of our couples and their friends know what makes us unique. Actually, we book 1 to 3 weddings off every local wedding because of our attention to detail. I love these pictures of the parents grasping hands right after giving their daughter away. I just told Courtney that I wish our photographer captured emotion like this. These pics were not our rockstar quality pictures of the day, but will probably be more moving to the family than the other “perfect” pictures. - DAVID
P.S. - NO FLASH HERE…EVEN IN AN EXTREMELY DARK CHURCH!
Courtney & I just found out that Trish made the front cover of Pensacola Magazine’s annual wedding edition. Trish was my bride, but Courtney shot this picture during her bridal shoot. I ask Courtney to shoot all my bridals because there are few photographers that rock bridal shoots like Courtney. Trish’s mom submitted this picture to the magazine. Apparently there was a big contest that we won:) - DAVID
Courtney & I have been collecting pictures that we have taken of each other or our assistants have taken of us while shooting. Here is a little slideshow:)
Courtney and I rarely accept portrait work because we are primarily wedding photographers. However, we do get requests from people that don’t take no for an answer:) Plus, we capture many casual family shoots for our wedding clients. This is a great gift that the engaged couple can give to there family members. Here are a few of my recent favorites. - DAVID
I had the awesome opportunity to go to Jacksonville last week to shoot a party for the Knott Magazine! The party took place at the gorgeous Epping Forrest Yaught Club.. it is beautiful there. It sits right on the water and is surrounded by mansions! We are so happy to be able to advertise with The Knott. It is a GREAT resource for brides to go to and find out everything they could possibly imagine about weddings! I was amazed as I listened to The Knott speaker about all the things that they offer to brides! And I love that they grow with your family.. from The Knott.. to The Nest.. to The Bump! How fun! I was honored to be asked to be a part of the event and so were the other vendors that were participating! Uniquely Yours Wedding Events Specialists put the whole party together. Check out their website.. it was beautiful! The Write Touch was there and provided beautiful paper products. Choux Designer Cakes and Pastries provided some delicious cupcakes! Entertainment and A/V provided the music for the cocktail hour and the luncheon. The linens were provided by Linen Design.. and the videography was provided by the amazing Eric Torres of CollabCreation! Each vendor left with a gift.. and in it was some amazing popcorn from Peterbrook Chocolatier! Yuuum! Their number is 904.398.2489. And lastly.. the flowers were provided by Rose of Sharon. They were beautiful and all smelled so good!
Thanks Karry for throwing a great party! Here are some peaks from the party!
I just wanted to thank you and Michelle and everyone else for
a perfect day!! I cannot believe how beautiful everything was and the
directors were soooo wonderful! You fully exceeded my expectations! I
never dreamed my wedding day would be so perfect…. David was
perfect, the band was perfect, the flowers were perfect, the cake, the
directors, the ceremony site……omg, everything!!! So many people
came up to us and told us it was the best and prettiest wedding they
had ever been to. And Dad, Dad loved everything! He thoroughly
enjoyed himself and was so proud when people came up to him and shook
his hand, congratulating the guy who paid for everything because it
was just perfect…haha. Thank you again for all your hard work. I
just can’t believe how perfect everything was! You are all absolutely
amazing and will definitely be doing Jenny’s wedding a few years down
the road:) I just can’t thank you enough!!!! Ahhh, everything was
perfect! Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Kari
