You may remember Yaitza and Joe from their Lake Eola Engagement Photoshoot last year with their son Chris.  They recently got married with a beautiful ceremony at St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church in Apopka followed by the reception at Dubsdread Country Club.  Joe was recently commissioned as a  Lieutenant in the Army Reserves so there was tons of celebrating to be done.  Yaitza and all her sister’s had no problem keeping the dance floor going all night.  Check out a few from the night:

We got a call from Allison this past month saying she wanted some photos of herself for her website.  She also has four-year old twins and thought the photos might be something they would enjoy when they get older.  Parents take so many photos of their kids to document them growing up but rarely take many of themselves.  As kids grow up they realize they have so few images of their parents.  We met up with Allison at her home in Lake Nona which we thought would be a pretty background for the photos.  Here are some of my favorites from the day.

There were so many nice photos from Jon and Nichole’s wedding we decided that it would be nice to post a few more goodies from the day.

Cari from Kyle Lynn Weddings did a fabulous job on Nichole and bridal party’s hair and makeup.

Here is a good one of the bride walking down the staircase to the courtyard where the ceremony was held.  It was a beautiful entrance.

Here is a shot that we caught of the bride at the end of the aisle next to her father.  You can see Jon just beyond that smiling and happy.

Here is one of Nichole’s son and daughter, who were incorporated into the ceremony.

We have been seriously behind on the blogging lately and are planning to play catch up very soon.  March and April have been very busy especially with the great Florida weather and the wedding season.  Jon and Nichole got married on a perfectly sunny April Saturday at the Courtyard at Lake Lucerne in Orlando.  The Courtyard is one of the best locations for a unique but timeless wedding experience.  Jon and Nichole were both very relaxed and truly made the most of the day.   Check out some photos of the day:

So we just added a new edition to the family and officially became parents!  We adopted her as an 8 week old infant small enough to be picked up easily with one hand.  When we got her she weighed just 8 pounds and now is over 11 pounds and growing quickly.  It’s awesome to take her on walks and play with her in the backyard.  She loves going on trips to PetSmart since she gets so much attention from other customers, fellow dogs, and especially the PetSmart employees.  She loves people and has not met a dog she does not get along with yet.  So far Rosie and our cat seem to be tolerating each other pretty well.  Other than our cat not having the spare room entirely to himself, there has not been many disagreements.  The pictures are worth a thousand words…
