This summer was full of so many fun and beautiful weddings! I was able to top off the season with Alli and Derek’s wedding on Labor Day weekend in St. Augustine, Florida.

Alli and Derek worked hard to plan a beautiful weekend for their family and friends and it sure paid off! Their guests traveled from all over the country to celebrate their wedding day. Many of the guests spent the morning at the beach before getting ready for the wedding — so fun and unique. Alli, Derek, and their families are so welcoming and make everyone feel loved and included.

Alli was absolutely stunning in a dress that looked like it was made just for her. She spent the morning with her bridesmaids in a gorgeous beach house located next door… to a castle! I always feel so honored to get to be right in the action while the bride is preparing for one of the most special days of her life.

Derek and Alli did a First Look on the rooftop overlooking the woods and castle. Talk about gorgeous! The sun behaved wonderfully, giving us perfect lighting for gorgeous photos.

Alli and Derek, thank you so much for inviting me to be part of your big day! I loved getting to know you both over the last few months. I’m so excited for you as you begin life as husband and wife. Congratulations!

A special thanks to my second shooter, Sydney Marie!
