Last weekend, Nathan and I had the amazing privilege of flying to Little Palm Island and spending the weekend photographing the celebration of Brooke and Harrison's marriage. It was nothing short of delightful, from the spectacular location, to the gorgeous and loving couple, to the gracious families, to the amazing accomadations, to the delicious food... We enjoyed our stay very much, and will never forget that weekend!� Brooke and Harrison are friends of several of our past clients, and we have had the opportunity to interact with them a couple of different times. I knew from the minute I met Brooke that I just had to photograph her wedding... She's absolutely stunning, and as sweet as she can be:) I can't express how excited I was when they called and told us about the wedding plans. We were so thrilled when everything came together!� Brooke and Harrison, I can't even begin to tell you how happy I am that you chose Nathan and I to be a part of your intimate wedding weekend. We felt so loved by everyone in attendance, and are so appreciative of the kindness you guys showed us. Your wedding was absolutely gorgeous, and I am inspired by how much you and your families love each other. I can't wait to hang out again soon, and hope you enjoy your slideshow :) much love,� -amber

Nathan and I flew in on a teeny tiny Cesna... only 9 passengers could fit. Check out Nathan's facebook page for a video. It was crazy!

Iguanas were everywhere!

We knew we were in for a treat when we were greeted with this sight.

I loved the personalized detail of having our name on our bungalow.
|
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
But not as much as I loved the personalized details provided by the bride. Nathan and I were so excited when we arrived in our room and had our favorite sodas! (We also had Jelly Bellys and sour candies! Perfect!) We felt so loved :)

Brooke and her family went deep sea fishing the morning of the wedding. I'd never been out so far.. it was an awe-inspiring experience for me.

Brooke is breathtakingly beautiful... and doesn't know it.
