Rosalie + Joe


Wedding season is in full swing for us, as Rosalie and Joe’s wedding was our 4th wedding in 4 days.  A lot of people might assume we are tired after four straight days of shooting, but that’s simply not true.  In fact, I love shooting and could probably shoot every day.  I can’t exactly say the same thing for editing, lol.

Rosalie and Joe were married at the Clearwater Beach Rec Center.  This was our second time shooting there, but we were surprised and happy to see they have renovated the ballroom area. I really enjoy this venue, as it has a couple really nice spots for photos, and it doesn’t hurt that everything is in very close proximity:)  We did, however, take a quick trip down to the beach near sunset time.  Although we didn’t get the greatest sunset, we were able to capture some great photos on the beach.  During their engagement shoot, we started at the park and then rode together in Joe’s car to the beach for sunset photos. Everything was going great until Joe got a flat on the way:(  They were great sports about it, so I’m glad we were able to make it to the beach without any car trouble on their wedding day, lol.

Here’s a little secret about me:  I go into every wedding trying to predict who (if anyone) is going to cry.  After doing this for over 12 years now, I’ve gotten pretty good. I’m not perfect, but more often than not I get it right. This wedding was no exception.  As soon as Rosalie started walking in, I immediately turned my attention to Joe, who I correctly predicted would be crying. It really is one of my favorite moments of a wedding to see the groom get emotional when seeing his wife.
