Stacey and Avery's Engagement Session, Florida

Silent river runs deep is a Jamaican saying that I think applies to Stacey and Avery! :-) I met Stacey and Avery in person several weeks before their engagement session and wasn't sure how the session would turn out. I knew I wanted to do something different and after months of trying to figure out which location would be good, event planner, Sherry from www.chainofeventsbahamas.com suggested the venue we selected. I checked the website and immediately fell in love with it!!! :-) I hoped the couple would love it and they sure did! :-) I suggested the couple visit there in advance to pick out their costume and see which props they liked. Well, that was that, by the time I turned up for their engagement session, for a while I didn't recognize them at first. I was like, "WOW, who is this?!!!" :-) Soft spoken Stacey and Avery became a cross between Marilyn Monroe, Dorothy Dandridge, and a pimp looking guy! :-) Stacey even came up with her full story line and all!!! :-) I was like, "Let's work it!!!" This session was not on my to do list because I never dreamed that the opportunity would ever present itself for me to have all the amazing vintage props and sets we had! :-) Stacey also wanted a session on the beach so we did an additional session the following day on the beach and she said she had some interesting ideas but little didn't I know that it involved strawberries and whipped cream, cough, cough, (clearing my throat) before Avery pretended to re-propose to her!!! :-) So Ms. Soft-Spoken Stacy and Avery totally showed out and worked the session becoming a fun, sultry diva and hi rolling guy and their acting was so natural! :-) What I especially loved was the amazing chemistry that they shared and was so transparent in all their pictures!!!! :-) Thanks Stacey and Avery for 2 wonderful evenings and I anxiously await capturing your wedding!!! :-)
