Light & airy wedding photography and cinematic videography

Ivy and Geordie’s love story began in the most everyday place—work. It’s funny how life’s ordinary moments can turn into something extraordinary, right? When I met these two, it felt like catching up with longtime friends, and capturing their wedding day was just as effortless and chill.

Ivy set the tone with her effortlessly elegant vibe. Her bridal look, crafted by the incredible Laura Reynolds, was simple yet absolutely stunning—just like Ivy herself. Relaxed, glowing, and ready to marry the love of her life, Ivy truly embodied grace and joy from start to finish.

Their heartfelt first look at the grand staircase was literally the sweetest and the groom definitley had a few tears when he saw his future wife. Their outdoor ceremony, officiated by Rev. Kevin Knox from A Beautiful Ceremony, Inc., took place on the lawn with the sun peeking through the trees. So romantic! Moments like these remind me exactly why I became an Orlando wedding photographer—being there to document genuine love never gets old.

After the ceremony, we took advantage of the stunning backdrop provided by the Luxmore Grande Estate. With its elegant architecture, vibrant greenery, and gorgeous natural light, every photo felt effortless and full of genuine love. Ivy and Geordie were completely in the moment, soaking up every bit of joy, making my job incredibly easy and super rewarding.

Inside, the reception was thoughtfully brought to life by Anna Christine Events, who ensured every detail was perfect (per usual!). Orlando DJ Group kept the celebration going, creating just the right atmosphere with music and lighting that made you want to keep on dancing. And boy did they dance! (The early 2000s pop rock was my personal fave, lol)

The couple opted for simple yet charming DIY florals, proving that sometimes the most beautiful things come from the heart. And let’s talk about treats because I’m a such a sweets girlie! Publix delivered with a delicious cake, and the addition of a boba tea station from Dreamy Tea was such a fun, playful touch that guests absolutely loved!

Ivy and Geordie wrapped up their celebration with dreams of their honeymoon destination: Bora Bora (like are you kidding me!?). I was hawking their instagram stories after the wedding day and it truly looked like the PERFECT honeymoon destination to follow a wedding filled with love, laughter, and meaningful moments.

Congrats, Ivy and Geordie—cheers to a future filled with adventures, happiness, and endless love! 🥂
