It was great to reconnect with Darcy and meet David earlier this week. Their love story is a sweet one. They went to high school together...didn't date...went on to marry other people...and reconnected a few years ago.
They became engaged on Valentine's Day this year, and I look forward to photographing their wedding in Port St. Joe in early May.

Newlyweds on the beach on 30a--photography
Cindy and David are their own version of "Dancing with the Stars." I met them a few weeks ago for pictures to celebrate their recent low-key wedding. They met in a dance class Cindy was taking. David was her tall, dark and handsome leader. David has been teaching all steps of dancing for over 20 years.
He decided Cindy should be his partner in life, as well. They took their nuptials to the courthouse where they live in Louisiana, with no guests around. So they decided to document the after-the-show show on the beach in the Destin/South Walton area, one of their favorite places.
Good luck to you two in your future. I hope you keep right on dancing!

Nicole & Bobby are getting married -- wedding photography
I recently posted Nicole and Bobby's slideshow from our recent engagement session. The two met when she went to work for him in his surf shop in downtown Fort Walton Beach--Liquid Surf and Sale.
It wasn't long before Bobby got up the nerve to ask her out on a date, and now four years later, they've decided to make it official next month.
You two make me laugh when I am around you, and I can only imagine how much fun we are going to have at your wedding next month!
:-) Melanie

Wedding film making
A few weeks ago I traveled to California for a school that teaches filmmaking, cinema, for weddings and other events; formerly known as "videography."
This is something I have wanted to grow my photography business into, since my days out of college were spent as a television reporter, telling stories through video segments. I know the ins and outs of shooting and interviewing and piecing the story together. I just needed some hands-on insight into other tools of the trade, as well as the latest editing techniques.
The guys who have the school recently posted on their site the end results of the projects of the various groups. We followed a UC Riverside student who is a competitive rock climber. I conducted most of the interview, and the final product was a collaboration of six of us who were in one of the groups. Check out group 3 on this link:
