Eden Gardens Wedding Photographer | Miranda & Bobby – Married!

I absolutely love small intimate weddings, for a number of reasons.  Granted, some of those are simply from the photographer in me – less is more, fewer people to place, etc… but mostly because the focus is so totally on the couple.  I can take my time really capturing them without the madness of 100 other people pining for their attention  And personally, because you really see into the couple a little more.  It’s much more romantic, in my opinion, and it’s just a whole different pace, feel, warmth.

And lucky for me, while I don’t even get a chance to meet many of my brides face to face – I already knew Miranda!  I shot her sister, Erin’s wedding not too long ago, who I’ve known for quite a little while.  It always makes life so much easier when I know the bride, and she knows me and is comfortable around me already.  Then, I can spare us all the pain of me having to bust out my really awful jokes and attempts to make a fool out of myself to get a genuine smile out of them!

Anyways, I have a HUGE preview for you, because of course… we all know by now Eden Gardens is on the list of my favorite places in the world (with a close tie to Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs, which I have a preview of coming up soon by the way!).  If you haven’t been to Eden Gardens State Park in Point Washington (near Grayton Beach, FL.) by the way, you MUST go.  It’s just off Hwy 98 past Destin/Sandestin and 30A and is what I consider “Old Florida”.  Beautiful big oak trees, on the bay.  And yes… theres a dock… you can sit on

Anyways, grab some popcorn, a cookie or two, and get comfy… we might be here a while!

And as you probably know, this field is one of the many reasons I love Eden Gardens.  It’s technically around the corner, and who knows WHAT I’ll do if they ever sell this lot & build on it!

This is easily one of my favorite photos:

This is for you, Nancy

And of course, the amazing little Flower Girl, Mia…

LOVE this one!

And seriously… I’m stopping now while I’m ahead!

Congratulations Miranda & Bobby!  :)
