Destination wedding at Southernmost Beach Resort, Key West with surprise boudoir photo shoot for Meredith's future husband Anthony.

7/24/2018

The summer has begun and the days are hot and humid, but the wedding season is still going strong.

I have so much to say about this destination wedding that happened at Southernmost Beach Resort. I have been in contact with my bride Meredith for a while and talking about options where instead of getting ready photos we would surprise her fiancee Anthony with a boudoir photo shoot.

Meredith showed me the style she was going for and we discussed the rest. I was a little concerned time wise how we would do the boudoir shoot on the same day as the wedding, but we easily flowed from one look to another. I loved how comfortable Meredith was with me and trusting me along the way.

I asked Meredith why she chose to do boudoir photos instead of traditional getting ready photos :
"I much preferred the boudoir, in it's own way it is less staged, it allows the bride to express the energy and excitement she has for one of the biggest days of her life, and let's be real, we are as toned and waxed and polished as we will ever be in our lives, why not capture that to remember for years to come."

These first couple of photos are just a tiny sneak peak from many more we created for Anthony.

The wedding day started right after, with The First Look followed by family portraits and a laid back atmosphere with champagne toasts, beach games, wonderful snacks, dinner and lots of laughter.

Anthony and his groomsman were wearing Scottish kilts. Even though some may think skirts might be only for girls it's actually a very popular garment for events and weddings. So, definitely...real men wear skirts too!!

Congratulations Meredith and Anthony!! It was truly a pleasure meeting you both and sharing your special wedding day!
