    Sheryl & OP's New Smyrna Beac h Wedding

    So I realize La Dolce Blog has been seriously neglected lately. It has been brought to my attention several times that I need to get back in gear and post some new stuff. It has been a crazy Fall so far and is only getting busier with each passing week. In the span of 6 weeks I will have been to New Orleans, Miami, Nashville and Savannah for shoots. I love love love to travel, but sadly that cuts a bit of blog time out of my life. I do promise however to never let the blog get this far behind again. Pinky Promise!

    Now back to more exciting things, like weddings and love and cake fights. Sheryl and OP were married on September 20th at Hidden Lakes Country Club in my home town of New Smyrna Beach. These two are so sweet together. Sheryl has the warmest heart of most anyone I've ever met. Its no wonder OP fell head over heels for this girl. Their wedding was light hearted and fun from the moment we showed up.

    Here are a few of our favorite shots from the day followed by a slideshow. Pay attention to the insane cake cutting extravaganza. I hope you all enjoy! Thank you Sheryl & OP for welcoming us into your lives and allowing us to share in such a special day. We couldn't have asked for sweeter clients than you two!

    Tara & Cory, that cake cutting was seriously our craziest yet! There was cake everywhere and the groom was even held down. Poor OP... he handled it like a champ though.
