| Longboat Key Wedding |
She’s an independent spirit who thought that finding “the one” just may not happen for her….He was convinced that the dating scene was just not for him…too many “meetings with no connection”. Until the day they met each other. This “one last shot” first date ended up lasting three hours. Three hours of talking, laughing and stories…three hours of butterflies and nervous giggles and once it ended, he texted her:
“A word kept popping into my head as I sat across from you,
listening,watching you speak, engrossed in your stories
and the newness of you and that was…amazing”.

Carey and Gabriel are married! Their beautiful wedding day, in Longboat Key Beach, was filled with romance, fun and love… a true reflection of the two people getting married that day. After a year of getting to know them and becoming friends, I can truly say that they are two of the sweetest and madly in love people out there! I am so happy to have been there to capture the amazing love and joy they shared on their wedding day!
Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Sanders ♥

I love Carey and Gabriel’s gift exchange…they were both like kids at Christmas with excitement!
Gabriel gave Carey a book filled with all the little love notes and poems he had written her (and saved) throughout the years.
A die-hard “Back to the Future” fan, Gabriel got a authentic autographed Michael J. Fox “Back to the Future” poster from Carey!
GORGEOUS!
Carey’s grandparents (who could not attend the wedding) played a very special part of their day as we replicated their wedding day photo…
These two…Ahh-mazing!!
One of the best first dances I’ve ever seen!
During the toasts, Carey (an amazingly talented singer -check her out here: http://careyyaruss.com/ ) Sang one of the most moving songs to her new husband and brought the house down!
