Limontes Wedding

When Jenny came to see me about her upcoming wedding I was so excited. I had seen Carlos' VERY romantic proposal and secretly kept checking to see how wedding plans were coming along. I was so excited when she showed up and asked me to shoot their wedding. Their wedding was filled with people who had nothing but heartfelt things to say about this couple. They are truly humble and try their best to serve others. I wanted nothing more than for this day to be perfect for them....and it was! Here is a look a their very special wedding day. Congrats to the Mr. and Mrs. Limontes!

Khakis and white shirts

As a photographer you get asked MANY questions before a shoot. One of my favorite questions is, "What do we wear?" My favorite answer is, "Not white shirts and khakis!" I think at one point in time our society lead many families to believe that we should all match and wear the same colors to take family photos. However, I can tell you (in my professional opinion) that point in time is LONG gone. The more texture and color you have the better. I always tell my families to pick out colors that compliment one another. If I have someone who is completely lost, I tell them to go to the paint department at Home Depot and look at a the different color palettes. One will stick out and eventually they are off finding outfits for their family session. Just recently I did a photo shoot at Casa Feliz in Winter Park. The texture and bright blue colors of this historic place are great for any photographer to work with. This momma did her research and put their outfits together perfectly. Each family member was in a different color and ohhhhh patterns galore!

Another secret- Pinterest and gap.com have great ideas for what to wear as a family to a photo shoot. So get with the times people! Don't be afraid to be bold and beautiful!!
