The day finally came and it was spectacular!! I came to know Simone and Nassive from a referral from their event planner, Carine St. Jean of Spectacular Affairs (www.spectacularaffairs.com). But little did I know that during the time of their engagement at least 3 other random people highly recommended that they use me! Thanks Alecia, Tashoy, and Terrence! I guess we were destined to work together! :-) I first came across Carine's fabulous gift of event planning at one of the most amazing weddings that I have ever been to before I became a professional photographer: the wedding of Andrea and Theo. I was definitely looking forward to seeing Simone and Nassive's wedding at the tropically inspired, Woodbury Country Club (www.woodburycc.com)! Their engagement pictures are some of my favorites and I was looking forward to working on their wedding pictures. The day came for their breathtaking outdoor wedding and we were met by rain and hail the entire day with a few breaks. Simone and Nassive were AWESOME as they looked at it as showers of blessings and their love and smiles became the sun glowing all day long! Future brides, do take note as something always goes unexpected at a wedding and your attitude makes a world of a difference in your pictures. Having Carine and her team on hand surely helped too! Simone looked amazing in one of my favorite wedding looks: flowers in the hair and a mermaid dress! Nassive looked dapper and obviously was enjoying himself! I loved the details chosen such shells, butterflies, chocolate covered strawberries, a violin quartet, and down to the color of the bridesmaids' dresses: salmon after Simone's last name, Salmon.
You can view their wedding slide show by going to my main website: www.shellyedwards.com Click on Weddings and Collections. Their wedding is the first one in that category. I chose to edit it showcasing the beauty of color but also featuring their love for the antique. It has been a sincere pleasure working with everyone and I pray only the best for your marriage Mr. and Mrs. Nembhard! :-)
