I love it when I have the honor of being asked back to photograph a family that I have photographed in the past. It is the greatest compliment, ever! Back in December of 2007 I first worked with the Gonyeau family on the wedding of their son, Matthew and his beautiful wife Jessica. You can read about their wedding here.
This time it was their son Jonathan and his Bride to be Melodie. They couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful day for a wedding. It truly was perfect…hot, but that’s to be expected here in the sunshine state. : ) I was just grateful that it didn’t rain because we have been bombarded with rain this entire summer. No rain…just beautiful blue skies and loads of sunshine.
I think that Melodies dress is one of my new favorites! I loved the detail…the sequins, the folds, the cross lace-up the back…just beautiful!
The reception was light and fun. The happy couple danced and enjoyed time with their guests. I did sneak Melodie out for a few extra Bridal shots because the lobby was just too beautiful not too. I loved the light coming in and the tropical colors and decor was just perfect for pictures.
Jonathan and Melodie, I thank you for allowing me to be a contributing part of the memories of your special day. I wish you both all the best! Congratulations!
