From the moment I met Jessica, we just clicked. Her bubbly sense of humor, her love of organization, and it turns out that we played volleyball against each other in college and never knew it! Then she told me that photography was the most important part of her wedding day (other than marrying the man of her dreams of course) and we were a match made in heaven. =)
Ok well enough about Jessica and me... onto the wedding day. As many of you know, there had been a crazy drout in the Tampa Bay area until a couple weeks ago. Then the rains came... every day... sometimes all day, sometimes with a super loud thunderstorm. When rain threatened to move the ceremony indoors, Jessica made every request possible to keep it outside. Somehow the weather cooperated and the clouds circled around the outdoor ceremony location at the Tampa Marriott Waterside and we only had a small sprinkle of rain an hour or so before the wedding. This was the first scheduled outdoor ceremony at the Marriott Waterside, so we were so excited that it worked out!
Jessica and Jeff were such naturals in front of the camera, which made it so much fun to capture them and their happiness together.
When we were outside taking some bridal portraits Jessica totally went over to the trolley and sweet talked the driver into letting us take some pics in the doorway, and he even let her borrow his hat!
Jessica and Jeff opted to see each other before the ceremony, so we had much more time to take pictures of the two of them. Right before Jessica saw Jeff for the first time, she told me she had no idea how nervous she would be and she ended up being really glad they got some time to themselves before the ceremony started. =)
As the last of three sisters to be married, Jessica shared some emotional moments with her father throughout the day.
These two were all smiles during their first dance, along with singing to each other. How sweet!
Then the party turned crazy when the dancing turned into a Carnival. Jessica's family is from Brazil and they wanted to incorporate some of their heritage into the wedding day.
I just had to get in on the fun... silly glasses, boa, and all. =)
Jessica and Jeff, you guys were so much fun. Thank you for letting us take part in your wedding day.
