Brad and Kyrie – Married! Jacksonville Wedding Photographer

everything· Weddings

22 Sep

WARNING – This is going to be a LONG post! I can just never decide which photos to post for weddings! I was so honored when Kyrie and Brad asked me to photograph their August 16th wedding in Tallahassee, FL. I met Kyrie a few years back when she was attending UNF here in Jacksonville and I was immediately drawn to Kyrie because of her super sweet nature and her love for her little Pug Aida. That love for her sweet girl Aida is what made Kyrie and I fast friends. Poor little Aida had lots of little problems just like my Golden Sophie, we were always able to bond over vet bills ;-) Brad had been in Kyrie’s life for a little while at that point and hearing the way she used to talk about him I just knew that this was “the one” for her. I just love when Groom’s cannot take their eyes of their Bride’s. Brad was that guy! There was so much love and passion in his eyes that I teared up a little behind the camera. Brad and Kyrie, thank you so much for trusting me to capture your big day!!


Kyrie’s “Something blue”

Some details…

Brad and Kyrie used a Peacock feather as inspiration for their wedding color palette. Here’s a close up of their centerpieces.

The bride!

The Groom!

With this ring…

It’s a good toast that can make a Bride laugh and cry all at the same time!

Brad and his sweet Mom during their dance…

I just love these two photos. I think they really capture Brad and Kyrie. They are such a fun, laid back couple. Kyrie’s face cutting the cake was so funny, and Brad feeding Kyrie with the serving knife, adorable.

and they lived happily ever after…

If you have followed me for a minute I am sure you If you have followed me for a minute I am sure you would recognize this woman. When I photographed her Wedding years ago I had no idea how happy I would be to have @mrsmakeitrainka in my life!!!! She is an incredible Woman and Mom and a million other things. She has been such a wonderful friend to me and I am crazy thankful to know her. At our last content shoot (precovid and still with a chill in the air) we had a little fun with some video and I threw together a little something for her with some images I have taken over the years. My edit skills are lacking but it was so fun to create and show another side of her! Shout out to another client and dear friend @shopacutabove @brittneypatty for letting us use your perfect #jaxmural
I had so many caption for this photo of my beautif I had so many caption for this photo of my beautiful couple who married the day before our State sheltered in place. So, lets keep it real. I am one month out from my first post Covid “big” Wedding. I have photographed a few elopements since the world fell apart (in more ways then one..) I am anxious to get back to beautiful gowns, love, laughter, family. With all that has happened in this world in the last few months I realize these events will never be the same, but I see them as reasons to believe in the future, to believe in faith, hope and love.
.
I have been sheltering in place. I have been hiding from social media. It just became to much. If you know me you know I wear my heart in my sleeve, nothing is ever “just business” it is always personal. I hold peoples worries and fears on my own shoulders right along with mine. My heart was breaking, the industry was falling apart and we started fighting a war that should’ve been over 100’s of years ago. At first I was afraid of not working for months, then I became fearful and afraid for loved ones who were diagnosed with Covid, then I became worried because my beautiful boys mental health will forever be affected by this and I had to choose being a Mother over my business for a short time, then I fell apart when I saw what the world was doing to beautiful humans who deserve every opportunity in life no matter their skin color. I was afraid. Heartbroken. I placed my son in front of every report of protests to reinstate everything I have taught him his whole life. We talked about Americas ugly history. We talked about kindness, empathy, loving people for who they are. He just kept saying “Why?”. I finally said what do you mean “Why”???? He had tears in his eyes and said why would people hurt someone because of their skin color”. Exactly. Why? I will never have the right words. I just know that it is my BIGGEST job to teach this child. Black lives matter, even if he doesn’t see color, and I pray he will always keep his kindness and compassion and continue on to fight for peoples rights.
