eat local with farm to table dinners – bradenton, florida

I recently had the wonderful opportunity to shoot a farm-to-table dinner at the King Family Farm in Bradenton, Florida, hosted by the Loft 5. The whole experience was really amazing. The farm itself is a beautiful property owned by the charming King family and the dinner was a delicious mix of ingredients picked right from the farm. The dinning experience is really like no other and I highly recommend it!

Here are a few photos of the evening…

I’ve known these two a very…very long time. They got married on Tondra’s parents property under the most beautiful, big oak tree. There were old friends, family, and barbecue. Tondra and Isaiah looked stunning. It was perfect.

I was so happy I could be there to shoot their special day. I love you guys and wish you all the luck and happiness in your marriage.

katie & bryan

I love destination weddings. Not only for the reason of getting paid to visit beautiful places, but because you get more of a chance to know the people you are photographing. I feel like that makes my job a lot easier and more personal. I get to develop relationships that probably wouldn’t have happened in just a one day wedding, and I love that.

Katie and Bryan had a small ceremony in St. Thomas in the Virgin Islands followed by a snorkel and sunset boat trip…complete with many delicious island drinks so cleverly named “painkillers”. Needless to say everyone involved had a great time.

Katie and Bryan were welcoming and their friends made us all feel like family. Thanks again for the wonderful time and wishing you many years of happiness and love.
