Destination weddings carry an irreplaceable spark of added energy and excitement that bond loved ones to an experience far beyond their natural reach. Unfamiliar yet beautiful island surroundings, the escape of daily distractions to connect with friends and family, luxury accommodations and service, and yet, the single greatest destination perk remains the true love story.

Kelly and David met in college as “study buddies”. While diligently working their way through long hours in front of the books, a much greater force was moving them closer to stand in front of the marriage alter. David’s patient and calm persona flawlessly blends with Kelly’s bright eyed and vibrant approach to life as they balance out to suit each other effortlessly. Their genuine approach and sincere love for each other can easily be seen and felt within minutes as they move toward a solid, well planned future.

Arriving to meet Kelly and David at the Iberstar Hotel in Montego Bay, Jamaica, the weekend kicked off to an evening welcome party and only escalated from there. From the charming in town church setting to the ocean side reception, Kelly and David’s long awaited wedding plans were in high gear. The dancing, the laughter, the celebration, the mixing of cultures, the union of families… this was the true destination.

Kelly and David: Thank you for living your lives with bright smiles and generous hearts. Congratulations on finding each other, choosing each other, and living for each other. It was an absolute plea sure being part of your wedding experience.

The endless roads we walk in life become many of the defining moments that shape who we are, how we think and what we pursue. For Alice and Allan, no better road would suit them than to walk hand in hand as their strong faith and pure love would lead them to a fruitful future. With a genuine excitement and simple outlook on life, these two have found a secret... Love each other and those around you the best you can because at the end of the day, love is all that is left.

I loved connecting with this home grown couple as they share a sense of adventure that screams, "let's go for it and make the best of what is in front of us!" Refreshing, young, and free to take on the world in pursuit of big dreams and big plans...my kind of style :) Alice and Allan: Life is waiting for you at every turn and I'm grateful to be part of that. I always look forward to what is next for you two and how you will be used in others lives. Blessings to you both ~ M

There are never enough hours in a day when shooting an in-love, fun and energetic couple like Kelly and David. Orlando was our meeting spot and after a little scope action with my buddy Phil from Jacksonville, we landed on a perfect location to capture their vibrant lifestyle engagement session. Don't ask me how, but the details always just seem to fall into place for an absolutely flawless day of laughter, creativity, and simply a good time with new friends making for a great day! Of course Kelly and David's carefree attitude, relaxed personalities, and life filled interaction added just the right touch as we toured downtown Orlando. Kelly + David: btw, thanks for now following me the wrong way which turned out to be a one way!! We had a fantastic time with you guys :)
