Wow.

Just wow.

Florida was SUCH a gorgeous backdrop for this gorgeous couple.

Both Nic and Aicha are friends of ours from Germany. Despite all its flaws and imperfections, they both love the USA and dream of living here permanently one day.

Nic is an imposing figure of a guy (check out those guns!), but quiet and with a very soft heart. Aicha is kind, energetic, and has a fantastic sense of humor. They met working in the USA a few years ago, and have since moved back to Germany, married in Tunisia – yes, Tunisia! – and then moved to America again.

They are both currently living in the USA on temporary visas, but they are determined to make their dreams come true some how. The hardships that they’ve faced have only made their love grow stronger, and we know that no matter what comes, they’ll find a way together. And with their ANGEL of a dog, Emma.

Nic and Aicha, thanks for inviting us down to Florida for a fantastic photoshoot and an AWESOME week!!

(you can expect to see Contax 645 FILM images soon!)

That was the end of the “official” photoshoot… but we had to throw in these candids from when we went to Celebration, Florida together… just precious <3

We met in Colonial Williamsburg, one of our favorite places for photo shoots. The buildings and roads tell stories from hundreds of years ago and the atmosphere is just lovely.

She loves architecture and history, so this was really the perfect place for her bridal portraits.

As soon as we saw Yea-Wen we could already see the pictures in our minds; Alice, an amazing hair stylist and German friend of ours (http://www.hairbyalice.com/) had done an amazing job on her hair and makeup artist Theresa (http://www.theresa-little.com/) knew how to work her magic.

The bouquet was put together by Yea-Wen herself (it was her first try, can you believe that?).

“How’d you do that?”

“Youtube!”

Well, if her job as an engineer ever gets old, she probably would have a promising future as a florist…

Yea-Wen had the most beautiful smile. She felt confident in front of the camera and struck beautiful poses – a natural. We had a great afternoon together and by it almost felt as if we were shooting with a dear friend.

We are so happy Yea-Wen will have these bridal portraits to show her husband Doug, and one day her children. You can really see her happiness in her eyes.
