It is amazing how baby portraits can make weak knees for everyone. We had met Gerson and Kathy at a wedding. It was her cousin getting married in Orlando.

Funny how some women change into bat s--t crazy the nanosecond an engagement ring goes on her finger.
Yes, we said bat s--t crazy. Otherwise perfectly kind, thoughtful, generous women or men depending on the gender can turn into unrecognizable raving people.
What happens? Having seen the phenomena first hand we would say some brides, grooms and even the parents become ‘drunk with power’. This wanton drunkenness spills over into almost EVERY aspect of dealing with these individuals.
We have at some level as a culture become much more accepting of rude and unruly behavior from others, fearing reprisal from the person either in the form of withdrawal of their affections or if doing business with them withdrawal of a ‘sale or contract’.

Sara & Daniel 10yr renewal
Alan and Jessica photographed my husband and ten-year vow renewal. They showed up an hour early just to ensure they had plenty of time to get the rest of the details about the day and familiarize themselves with the church and reception hall. They were very patient with our 4 kids, ages 9, 5, and 2-year-old twins. No nap for the twins meant they were cranky, but they did an amazing job with their temper tantrums and all lol. The pictures were amazing and Im having a hard time choosing my favorites
