Family Photoshoot

Happy Monday (well almost)!
Well here I am…Natalie. So today, I thought I would share the flip side of my other passion in life…my precious family. I have to say that I never thought when I headed into this field that I would be posing for photo shoots, but these kind of unexpected surprises are what makes going out on my own totally worth it! For some time, I’ve been in desperate need of some photographs of my family but for miscellaneous reasons (work, kids, life, etc.) never got around to getting them done. Of course, the only person to get the job done was Rebecca Zoumberos from Limelight Photography!
The logistics of getting ready was a little nervewracking…what to wear….will the kids behave…can I manage to loose the extra pounds 🙂 However, once we arrived at Limelight’s beautiful studio (also affectionately known as “The Z Farm”), all the nervousness kind of went away. Rebecca is so easy going that to my surprise, once I relaxed a little and stopped thinking about how funny I probably looked, we had a great time and really loved how the photos turned out. Having all the kids run around crazy, definitely helps and really, could they be any cuter (Husband included)??
Well, enough talk…lets get on to the pictures!

The dessert table, was so much fun to create, from the rock candy-to the shots of milk served alongside chocolate dipped oreo cookies, it was pretty much to-die-for (and delicious). As always, thanks to Linens by the Sea for delivering the most beautiful linens. Enjoy!

So finally getting around to posting some professional pictures from recent events. Julie ~ today’s beautiful bride ~spent over a year planning her wedding! She knew what she liked and set about assembling a team who could help her achieve it. Staci at Unique Event Design, Alicia at Pure Emotions, Samantha from Signature Event Design (and of course, Chic Sweets) all played significant roles in their areas of wedding expertise!
Of course, this couple was really easy to fall in love with. First of all, the ceremony and reception was held at the BEAUTIFUL Don Cesar Beach Resort. Yep, total gorgeousness. Second, this couple are madly in love with each other and both have that glowy, hopelessly smitten look after 10 years of marriage! Yes, that is right. After being unable to afford the wedding they wanted the first time around, they finally decided to have their dream wedding. And third, the wedding style is pretty much as gorgeous as you can get with dark red roses, the custom damask print, and a wedding gown that is as sexy as it is timeless and little handmade details that are all about the charm.

Morgan’s Inspired Dora Party!
Finally! Breaking my blogging drought! I can’t believe how busy we have been these days! We are growing and more fun opportunities keep coming my way, which is such a blessing, but leaves me with little time to do anything else but work.
So with that, I will leave you with a few parting shots from a recent birthday party for a wonderful little girl, by the name of Morgan. Her mother, is an amazing mother and works for the wonderful Cafe a la Carte (a delicious mobile gourmet Espresso, Latte & Cappuccino Bar).
The lighting was difficult so pardon the photos! Hopefully soon, will be able to share some additional photos from recent events we’ve had these past few weeks.
Also, I will be posting some exciting news coming shortly for a shoot we are working on with an amazing team…. (which I’m kind of bursting at the seams about)….stay tuned!
