Giving Back (Our Way) | 2016 Free Wedding Photography Contest

It's that time again!!! The holidays are once again upon us and the year is coming to an end...

We are so thankful for all of the opportunities we have been given, and we owe that to every one of our couples. We are not in the business of saving lives, but in our attempt to “give back” and as a small token of appreciation to everyone that has believed is us along the way, we like to put on this annual contest! 

In tradition, we would like to “give back” (our way), and once again hold our contest for:

FREE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY!! 

There are so many couples out there that have overcome obstacles together. There are so many couples out there who financially just don't have the budget for a professional photographer and could use a break. There are so many couples out there that give their all for others and never ask for anything in return.

It is for those couples, that we want to “give back” by offering a free wedding photography package to one deserving couple!

Sarah and Piper | Love Is Love | Savannah Elopement

With the upcoming (Updated: And now legalized) Supreme Court ruling on Same-Sex Marriage... I am honored to share Sarah and Piper's Savannah Elopement. 

Sarah and Piper traveled up from Ft. Myers, FL to elope in Savannah's beautiful historic district. They chose Savannah, because this city holds a special place in both of their hearts... And now even more so!

In a very heart-felt intimate ceremony, held at the Wedding Cake Mansion, Sarah and Piper pledged their love to one another, with vows that brought the house to tears... I am so honored to have been part of their Big Day!

Sarah and Piper I wish the best for you, in your future together! It is always great to be around couples with such a strong connection with one another. You are such an amazing couple and we had so much fun with you two!

Oh and BTW - If anyone reading this is in the Ft. Myers area and looking to get some ink/tattoo work, you should really check out Sarah and Piper's tattoo shop, Art and Soul Tattoo  { Shameless plug for my new friends :) } 

On to some images from the day...
