We can't say enough wonderful things about this couple! We just love Allyson and Eric and to think, we almost didn't get this booking. Allyson found us on the WPJA (Wedding Photojournalist Association) under Florida listings. We are obviously listed under Arizona, but also list ourselves under Florida because we work there frequently. When Allyson contacted us and found out we were based in Arizona, she almost didn't email back. Ultimately we continued talking and in the end it was meant to be and we are so glad for that!
Allyson and Eric were married January 18, 2014 at the Ancient Spanish Monastery in Miami, Florida. This was a destination wedding for the couple and it couldn't have been a more beautiful setting. So many things about this wedding were noteworthy, but the two things that really stood out to us were their obvious love for one another and their love for Eric's son, E.J. During the ceremony E.J. was invited up and they all joined hands to symbolize becoming a family. One other moment worthy of mention was the couple's "first look" ... epic! The week of the wedding they were still wavering on their decision to see one another before the ceremony. After some back and forth, and some coaxing from us, they finally decided to do it. We always strive to make these meetings special, but we felt even more pressure to make this one special. We just knew how much the moment meant to them and wanted it exceed all their expectations. This seriously had to be the most amazing "first look" we have ever witnessed. Allyson and Eric really took their time and basked in the moment and it was nothing short of magical.
Allyson and Eric, we are soooooo happy you two chose us as your wedding photographers!! You were both so welcoming and inviting as were your family and friends. We loved having the chance to get to know you both better. Enjoy the sneak peak :-)!! xoxo ~ Tina and Kevin
