{Madalyn & Neal's Wedding at Club Continental | KiKi…

September 8, 2016

Madalyn and Neal could have gotten married in jeans in an empty field with just their friends and family surrounding them and the day would have been just as gorgeous as it really was. I say that, because in the short time I have had the honor of getting to know Madalyn and Neal, I have realized they are the ones that light up the room, are the life of the party and make you feel special even if they don’t know you. We felt like family all day and we even each got a hug from 6 different people immediately when we walked in the door as they said “We are so happy you are here!”
They, along with everyone at their wedding, were an absolute joy to work with. I was even a little giddy editing the photos because I had such a great time! Anyways, check out one of the coolest couples I have had the absolutely wonderful pleasure of photographing below!
Congrats you two! Enjoy!

{Molly & Jerry’s Engagement at Atlantic Beach | KiKi…

August 26, 2016

This was my last summer shoot in Florida before I began my journey out west for my summer shoots. It turned out to be an absolutely gorgeous sunset at Hannah Park. Molly and Jerry were super excited and giddy which made for a super upbeat and fun shoot. They get married in the adorable red barn in Tennessee in a month and I can’t wait to photograph their adorableness (Is that a word?) on their wedding day.
For now, enjoy their beach engagement …

{Kayla & Cory’s Wedding at The Peach Barn |…

August 10, 2016

Kayla and Cory have that infectious, happy, beautiful kind of love. And their smiles show it. They were such a fun couple to photograph. We would have these beautiful moments with golden sunlight and then they would start making goofy faces and joking around with each other. I love how easy it was to tell how great of friends and perfect they are together.
We had an eventful day that included some of Cory’s homemade beer, home cooked food from Kayla’s family, songs sang at the reception by friends, an incredibly colorful sunset and an even more dramatic evening filled with lots of Kayla’s dad dancing and getting the party started. It was wonderful to spend the day with such loving and absolutely fun people. Check out all of their wedding below.
Enjoy!

{Jessica & Marty's Wedding at Key Largo Lighthouse |…

July 20, 2016March 28, 2019

Marty and Jessica are two of the sweetest, most genuine people you could ever meet. They are both super talented, crafty, funny, incredibly caring and not to mention…really gorgeous together. Once they found each other, everyone agreed, they are perfect together. I was excited to have the chance to photograph their beautiful wedding this spring and we had quite a lot of fun on this sunny Florida day.
Beyond the grand exit on their boat at midnight, they had hilarious toasts, an award winning sunset, champagne and rum punches, sparkler exit, and Jessica’s dad even gave her a high five right after he gave her away. Super happy you two found each other. Check out their colorful, super fun and absolutely lovely wedding below.

{Cara&Chris Wedding at Milliken Creek | KiKi Creates |…

May 25, 2016

An Australian Wedding in Napa Valley California with the liveliest group of 7 people I have ever had the pleasure to enjoy a leap day with. A gorgeous destination wedding timed perfectly with the mustard seeds blooming to give us this beautiful yellow color right at sunset. They took a few sips of wine during their vows, said I do, and then the entire wedding (of 7 people) hoped in my giant suv and took an adventure around the Napa Valley vineyards. Check out all the beauty below..

Enjoy! KiKi

May 10, 2016

Golden Sunsets, Historical Details, Purple Hues, Smiles, Real Moments, Lip Singing Battle, Dance Offs, oh…and a wedding ceremony 🙂 Stephanie and Mark’s Historic St.Augustine Wedding was a roller coaster of emotion. Form an emotional first look, to goofy bridal party photos, to the sweetest mother son dance, ending with the entire wedding on stage lip singing to 80’s songs. This wedding gave me such a wonderful opportunity to photograph truly candid and loving moments. Check out their entire day below. Enjoy!

{Andrea&Jay Wedding at Casa Marina | KiKi Creates |…

April 27, 2016

A perfect blue bird day here in Jax Beach. As if the day could not get any prettier…in walks the bubbly and all smiles Andrea. My Bride for the day. Her and her girls were giggling while covered in their shawls on this windy and cool day. Beyond the beauty of the day…there were tons of happy tears that made it hard to photograph at times. The love, honesty and welcomeness (that’s not a word!) of this wedding put a very warm and inviting feeling in this otherwise chilly day. Check out this incredibly sweet and adorable couples day below…

Enjoy!
