My sweet little bride Emily has been so patiently waiting to see her engagement photos!  I LEFT for South Florida about 12 sessions back and came back to a full schedule.... so needless to say I've been working hard to catch up!!   Wanted to get this post up to give her and Keith a taste of what we captured while I'm finishing up the rest!  We shot these at Spanish River Park in Deerfield Beach... I just love this place... it was definitely my go-to spot for my last trip down!!!   Thank you to my sweet friend Kelly from Spirit Led Photos for assisting on this one!!




Very much looking forward to photographing their wedding at the beach in October!!  It will be here before we know it!!  :)   Eeeeek!

Franki & David :: New Orleans Wedding Photographer



To skip all my sentimental ramblings and just see the photos already, click here!!!

This wedding was particularly special to me, you see... the sweet little flower of a bride you'll see in these photos has a piece of my heart!!  My husband and I first met Franki during her sophomore year of high school.  She was brought to the youth group at our church by a friend and we had the privelege of watching her faith bloom and grow as she met Jesus there each week.  Franki was one of the ones that actually GOT it. She didn't just talk the talk, but I watched her make daily decisions to be a Christ-follower... even when it was difficult.  Over the years Miss "Franchesca" and become closer and even did a few Bible studies and met from time to time for coffee & conversation.  She became our prized babysitter... even to this day have not found her equal in the way she loved and cared for my sweet babies!  Eventually, she went off to Tulane University and we moved to Texas.  It was tough goodbye. :(  We've been lucky enough to have ONE visit back home at the same time a few years ago... I got to introduce her to my sweet Lyla Grace and visit with her for an afternoon.

 I had known about David for while and really, everything I'd heard about him seemed wonderful.  It's funny, I'd always viewed Franki as a friend/little sister but when David came onto the scene the "mother instincts" kicked in!!  Who WAS this guy???  Could he possibly be WORTHY of our Franki??  It would take a very special guy to win her heart.... indeed! :)

I was beyond honored when my "Franks" chose me to be her wedding photographer!!  Not only did this mean I got to BE there to witness my sweet Franki all grown up (ha!), but I got to be up close and personal alll day long with both of them!!  What a precious time it was.  David won me over pretty quickly.  It really wasn't anything he said... it was the look he had in his eyes when he looked at her.   That said it all to me.  You can so see it in these photos too... I can't tell you how many times I teared up both on the wedding day and while processing these images.  I'm so grateful that Franki waited for God's best for her.  She waited and trusted.... and God is glorified.  :)

The entire day was filled with a certain sweetness... lots of Pinterest-y details that they so carefully planned. They were surrounded by dear friends and family and thinking about the whole thing just makes my heart all warm and melty. :)  It was a beautiful day Franki and David.  Matt and I were deeply honored to be there with you both.  The Lord's hand is on you and we are so excited to watch as his plans unfold in your marriage!  Fiercely protect what God has given you.  Rely on His specific promises in the hard times, and always laugh together like you did on this day! (tear, again)  Love you both!  To see a preview of their day, click here!!!
