When Mallory and Neal were searching for Florida wedding photographers it was fate that brought us together! After finding my website and being recommended by their planner Mallory knew she had found the one.
Above all, Mallory and Neal wanted to have a wedding surrounded by their loved ones. Set on her mother’s property outside of Gainesville, Mallory coordinated a gorgeous black and white wedding celebration.
All of Mallory’s details were sophisticated and classic. From her pearl necklace, satin dress (with pockets!!) to the perfect beige bridesmaid dresses. Neal had a beautiful blue heart with their initials embroidered onto Mallory’s dress right underneath where her heart is as a surprise!
During her time getting ready Mallory shared so many first looks with people very near to her. She started with her grandma who’s face truly says it all!!
Following was her sweet little her flower girls who said she looked just like a princess (they were right) and her bridesmaids.
Meanwhile Neal and his groomsmen got ready at his home.
Florida wedding photographers are always so surprised by the gorgeous homes we see!
Obviously, the mossy oaks and huge open fields made the perfect backdrops. Neal’s reaction when he finally saw his bride was so touching! I adore getting to see how my couples love each other. Capturing your authenticity is the best part of my job!
Following their wedding in the front yard we strolled to the backyard to see the gorgeous tent reception! The gorgeous gold chiavari, textured white linens and greenery runners made this wedding such an elegant affair.
Despite some potential rain, Mallory and Neal ended up with the perfect florida weather! They danced the night away under the tent. With the help of a live band and all of their friends they partied well into the night!
Mallory described our experience working together:
“With all the ups and downs a wedding can bring, Arielle first and foremost was my calm and a trusted person throughout the whole process from engagement photos to wedding day photos. This girl has incredible talent and has every characteristic and skill any bride + groom dream of. Arielle made sure everything I could imagine was captured on the best day of my life.
She went above and beyond, not only being my photographer and capturing my husband and I’s most special day…. but a sense of support, a friend, and a shoulder to lean on throughout the whole wedding process. If you want someone to capture your fairytale day, this is your girl!”
