This wedding took place at The Ritz-Carlton in Naples.  Melissa & Gerry were unique in that they had a private ceremony at a local church and then went straight to the beach and had a second ceremony open to all their friends and extended family.  This couple and their families were so wonderful to photograph because of the amount of love and emotion pouring out of everyone that day.

Sometimes during a photo shoot, I have to guide & encourage couples to interact with each other, but not these two.  It was one big love fest.  The thing that makes me smile about Melissa & Gerry is that I ran into them a few weeks later and they were just as happy and giddy with each other then as they were on their wedding day.  

Posted below are some of my favorite images from the day.  I especially like the reception images.  The energy and high spirits felt in the room that night were really captured.
