What can we say about this family? They are just fantastic. We first met them last February when we photographed Jim and Mary’s wedding in Foley, AL. Adrienne is Jim’s big sister, and we were thrilled when she called us in June for a Key West wedding. It means a lot when we get sibling’s weddings because it means a family was totally satisfied with our previous work. Rae and I spent part of our honeymoon in Key West, and we were really looking forward to a road trip again which is always an adventure with us (I’m happiest on a plane or a long car trip). Key West also hosts an international sailing regatta every January which I participated in a few times, so I know every place to exploit on the island for good food and fun. Clearing throat and moving on……
Adrienne and Damon met in San Diego where they currently reside. Damon is in the military and Adrienne is currently in law school. They both lived on boats at the same marina (key to my heart) and their relationship grew from there. This marina must be a tight communtity because even some of their neighbors made it to the wedding. Funny thing is that Adrienne lived on a sailboat the first two years of her life as well. Her mom’s exact words were, “we couldn’t afford a house and a boat, so we chose the boat”. Adrienne’s dad is a lucky man! Anywho, they chose their wedding to be at the Reach Resort in Key West just 3 or 4 blocks from the southernmost point of the US. It was a beautiful afternoon, and with Damon’s family being from Maryland, they especially enjoyed the warm weather. The reception was held on the west end of the island at the A&B Lobster House overlooking the Key West harbor. I have never had better food and the staff went out of their way to accommodate everyone including us. Let’s get started…
If anyone needs a professional steamer, Adrienne’s mom is an expert!

A quick shot of the whole group!
Now, they did have a traditional wedding cake, but I am showing one of the two desserts that also came with dinner. This was a chocolate torte, and I guarantee it was the best thing you will ever eat.
Jim and Mary having fun…. Jim is a sports photographer and has a great gig working with Auburn University.
They were whisked away at the end of the night back to the resort. My thanks to whomever flashed behind them for this great parting shot! I need to offer them a job 
We had so much fun everyone! Call us when the first grandchild is born!
