{Beka&Mike | Engagement at Talbot Island| KiKi Creates |Jacksonville,…

November 2, 2018

Whenever I get asked what I miss about Florida the most, I always say sailing. So when Beka and Mike had the idea of sailing at sunrise for their engagement. I was all in! They are a super adventurous and fun couple, so this session was true to who they are and could not have been more up my alley. They cracked some beers on a private island as the sun hit the horizon and it was just about the coolest way to spend your morning. And, they get married in a week! So why not reminisce 🙂 Check out our sailing session below!
Enjoy!

{Jenna&Josh | Engagement at Neptune Beach | KiKi Creates…

October 11, 2018

I was pretty excited about this shoot when Jenna first approached me. I mean who wouldn’t want to take off on a Monday, pop champagne on the beach and then proceed to jump in the ocean, fully clothed? And then follow it up with another bottle of champagne and an underwater shoot in one of your friends pools? Usually I am sending emails on Monday, so this was a welcomed change.
Jenna and I have been friends for several years. She has seen my style change and ideas go all over and still been so supportive of my work. When you meet Jenna, you can instantly tell she is one of those people that is always smiling and so incredibly kind to others she meets. She would joke that she was excited for me to photograph her engagement, even when she wasn’t engaged. It made me feel so special and excited to one day do that! Then in comes Josh. Sweet, loving Josh that seems to make Jenna smile even more. He was so open to my ideas as well. Especially for not knowing me too well. Things like, “Throw Jenna in the water fully clothed.” ; “Pop the champagne right over my shoulder.”; and “Hey, I am going to get a picture of your dog taking a #2 right in front of you guys kissing.” didn’t seem to phase him. 🙂 Overall it was one of the most fun engagement shoots I have ever done. And I will let ya just check out the photos. Enjoy!

{Amy&BJ | Engagement Session at Lake Runnymede Conservation Park…

August 2, 2018

I think I can say, that this engagement session here, had the most laughs and giggles ever within an hour session. Maybe it’s because we were alone in the woods, hanging out for the first time in years. Maybe it’s because these two have been together for almost a decade. Or maybe it’s because Bj and Amy are just kick ass cool. 🙂 Either way, I had an amazing time hanging out with these two and cannot imagine what kind of fun we are going to have in November for their wedding. Check out all the giggles and twirls and a couple climbs up a tree below.
Enjoy!

{Katie & Justin | Engagement at Turkey Lake |…

March 13, 2018

There is something to be said about the feeling of truly being your wonderful, goofy self with the one you love. And that’s is what I’ve always seen in Katie and Justin. They just seem so naturally in love and super easy going and fun. I met Katie for the first time in Ireland for a wedding I was photographing for a mutual friend. Lets just say, when I met her and her sense of humor, I was sort of in love. She is just such a fun person to be around and made me laugh non stop.
So of course I was pretty darn excited when I saw that she had messaged me about photographing her wedding next month. And after our engagement session filled with a gorgeous sunrise and tons of laughs, I was even more excited. You two are an extremely fun couple to be around and I can’t wait for next month!
Here is a preview of their engagement session and more to come next month after their wedding day. Enjoy!

Photographing these two was so fun that it instantly put more excitement towards photographing their wedding day.

The Goldenest of Golden Hour Engagements was my first time at Castaway Island Preserve in Jacksonville, Florida. With cowboy boots on we explored the beautiful woods of Castaway Island on one of the most beautiful days here in Florida. Enjoy my last engagement session of 2015!

{Kaylie+Jason Wedding in St.Augustine | KiKi Creates | St.Augustine…

December 29, 2015

I’ve always thought the best way to throw a wedding is to rent a house and party all night! Kaylie & Jason had the same idea and you can see the beauty of their St.Augustine Fall Wedding in the lovely photo below. Enjoy!

{Samantha + Phil Engagement at Fort George | KiKi…

June 4, 2015

Ever since I can remember, an engagement session to me, has always been a mini adventure. I hike and explore weekly and stumble upon these beautiful locations that may be a little rough to get to, but are so rewarding to photograph and experience. One day when walking in Fort George with my Dogs I found a small, overgrown pathway that led to an entrance to the St.Johns and a beautiful and serene area to watch sunset. I had to find the right couple though. One that wouldn’t mind mud and weeds and bugs. Sam & Phil were more than willing and more than adorable when walking out to the spot.

Love that they were so amped to get out and share a new spot with me. Can’t wait for their lovely wedding.

Enjoy!
