Kelli & Patrick – Engagement Party

Patrick is Chris’ younger brother and he and Kelli got engaged this past Thanksgiving Eve.  We are all so excited to have another wedding in the family!  I am honored to be photographing their Florida wedding next May- can’t wait for that!  Chris is the Best Man, Madison is a Jr Bridesmaid and all our parents and family will be there to celebrate their love on the beach, in the sand with no shoes on- my kind of wedding:)  This past Saturday they had an engagement party and I captured some fun images to remember this exciting time in their lives.

Kelli & Patrick- enjoy and looking forward to celebrating with you next May!

Lots of fun beach theme details like this bride and groom seagull sculpture made out of driftwood and shells- how creative is this?

A beautiful cake:

A preview of what’s to come at the wedding day cake cutting, maybe?

Kelli and her mom have similar tattoos.  I’ve toyed with the idea of getting a tattoo but never know what I would want to be on me FOREVER!  I could never decide- ha!  I’m such a Gemini.

A family photo taken by one of their friends, although both of Kelli’s brothers were not here for the photo.  (Side notes: my legs need some self tanner- stat- yikes!, Joyce is hiding here behind my head- sorry! and yes Madison(in pink) is taller than most of us at 11 years old!)

And I took some of Kelli and Patrick just as the sun was setting- such great light here and I love the images we got:

Congratulations again to you both- enjoy all the planning!
