WOW!!! Not every wedding I shoot gets photobombed by a T-Rex!!! Just wanted to share this fun Jurassic World / Jurassic Park Inspired T-Rex Photobomber photo from a recent Wedding I shot. :) The wedding was at Marco Island in Florida.
Take care,

Yesterday we had such a fun time shooting an Engagement Session in Downtown Fort Myers. We were lucky to get some awesome shots in before it started to rain! I just LOVE the cute Save-the-Date that Lindsay made - so creative! :)
Such a cute story! Twenty years after walking down the aisle with each other, the flower girl and ring bearer of a wedding marry. :) What are the odds? I loved watching this!!!!
The young kids involved in a romantic wedding found love together later in life. Twenty years after meeting while walking down the aisle for a wedding, the ring bearer married the flower girl in this remarkable journey to the altar.
So excited to share these absolutely stunning photos from Chauncey and Laura’s exquisite wedding at Colonial Country Club in Fort Myers, Florida!!! www.CharlottePurdy.com

A couple weeks ago, I had the pleasure of being invited to participate in a styled shoot for Legend's Golf and Country Club in Fort Myers, Florida. I got to work with some amazing vendors for this project - Kelly (who is the Wedding Manager at Legend's), Jay Rigdon (who is a DJ and owns Jay Rig Entertainment), and the wonderful girls at Alfred Angelo Bridal (who supplied the dress and hairpiece)!!! Our model, Alexa is an Advanced Hair Stylist at Roots Salon in Cape Coral (she also did her own hair and makeup for the shoot - She did such a great job! :) Alexa brought her handsome boyfriend Nick to be the groom, and his suit was supplied by Black Tie Tuxedo.
Here are a few photos from the shoot! Such a great time!!! :)
On a perfect summer day, I had the opportunity to photograph an adorable family at Casa Ybel Resort in Sanibel Island, Florida. They brought these SUPER CUTE balloons to the shoot - what a fun idea!!! We had a blast capturing memories out on the beach and in the resort grounds... I can't wait to return! :) www.CharlottePurdy.com

I believe in magical moments. Like that moment when the bride is walking down the aisle, and her daddy cries as he is about to give her away. Or that moment when the groom brings his mother in close, while he is smiling proudly at her as he and her are spinning across the room arm and arm. Or the bride, peeking down the aisle, trying to get a glimpse of her groom. These moments linger in my memory, and cause me to smile as I capture your memories.
I have one of the best jobs in the world.
Choosing a wedding photographer is a very difficult task, because in addition to needing to have the right equipment and know-how, you also need to choose a person that you can see yourself being around (pretty much all the time) on your wedding day.
My brides and grooms become my friends. Behind each picture is a memory and behind each memory is a story – and I have the greatest honor of being chosen to tell story.
No wedding is perfect – but sometimes it is the imperfections that make a wedding the most cherished. Not because the wedding is Pinterest perfect, or because the wedding should be in the next issue of The Knot, but because it’s your story and it’s what makes your story unique.
When you are looking for a wedding photographer, one of the most important things that you need to look for is this: “Do they care?” Because a photographer who cares is much more valuable than a hundred that don’t.

Not that long ago I had the pleasure of photographing Stephanie and Tysen. Our shoot was a blast as we explored Downtown Fort Myers during their Engagement Session. Their engagement story is so cute! Tysen surprised Stephanie by proposing to her on the Eiffel Tower. How romantic! :) Anyways, I hope you have as much fun viewing their pictures as I did taking them.
Take care,
Charlotte

A few weeks ago Justin and I had the pleasure to photograph Lisa and Beau's Engagement Session at the Sanibel Causeway beach. Lisa and Beau are so in love and their chemistry is AMAZING :). I couldn’t have asked for a better time with them and their photos are gorgeous! I love this couple and I am excited to capture their wedding later this year. - Charlotte
