So…. I (Corrine, yes… the floral designer of the team!) have enjoyed photographing this FALL so much!  I’m really enjoying the chance to pick up my camera and just play.  I think that I love doing children’s and baby photography best– It’s my newest passion.  I love photographing my girls– and also little babies… so call me– let me play with these tiny toes!!  I’m excited to try some new things!  The above pictures were taken on my cousin’s newest addition– Rylen & Big Brother Tyler– and the obsession for the day was toes.  Cute lil’ Tyler couldn’t grasp why we were so interested in Rylen’s baby toes, that he decided to take a good look at his own… so sweet!

When I received Justine’s baby announcement, I was thrilled to have provided her beautiful images of her newest little angel!  It was a wonderful day!

These two high school sweethearts moved to Tallahassee, Florida together  (from New York) to together to attend FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY– yes, which Greg loves…. I LOATHE!!  As a Gator alumni– it sure does make for an interesting meeting when these two houses collide.  While Greg, Cassie and Rob were doing the chop– and I did a fierce chomp!

To Cassie and Rob- we are looking forward to your amazing event!  It is going to be loads of fun and we can’t wait to take some beautiful pictures of you both!

All the best– Corrine & Greg

 We really enjoyed working with this wonderful couple.  They were amazing the entire journey of their wedding “production”.  We are so proud to call them friends.  It was a  joy work with them on the florals, photography– and lots of fun things inbetween.  To Jennifer & Adam- we wish you many, many years of love, happiness and friendship.  Congratulations to you both!!

xoxo- Corrine & Greg

Well, when I got married– the complexity of the holiday changed.   I didn’t realize that my husband & his family were going to be Halloween nuts– everyone ALWAYS gets into ghoulishly good spirits.  The Heck household turns into haunted spook-tacular… and the theatre of a great costume is spent hours in the making.   It’s become a contest to see who can get it just right!

This year, after getting our costume groove on, we grabbed the kiddos & Greg’s Great-Grandmother Ruth and headed over to New Symrna Beach to walk in the annual parade there.  Amelia dressed as Alice in Wonderland (so sweet and adorable) while Avery was her nemesis– The Queen of Hearts.  Greg proudly adorned a Gladiator getup– complete with warrier helmet, sheild, toga and lots of blood.  Ewwww!  I went completely feminine as a grecian goddess to cheer my Gladiator in his crusade.  We were quite the pair.  Aiden had NO clue what was going on– he played the part of the silent Indian while Great-Grandmother Ruth (78 years young b.t.w.) dressed up as Ghost Faced Killer from Scream.  I found her costume the funniest of them all.  Aiden couldn’t stop staring at her– he wasn’t afraid– but he wasn’t going to keep his eyes off her anyways.  What a laugh!

We hope everyone had a fun and safe Halloween!  Here’s some pictures of our family to enjoy!

In honor of my family, I’m posting a few images that I captured at my cousin Justine’s baby shower of her and my Aunt Judi that I took that day.  She actually gave birth to Rylen nearly 12 days ago– I can’t wait to meet him!

That same day, I visited my Uncle Kurt & Aunt Dede to visit with their newest grandchildren– Twins Mallory & Kyleigh!  They are completely adorable and so charming– I’m looking forward to photographing them again… very, very soon!

Yesterday! http://www.flowersandphotography.com/blog/2009/10/my-girls-yesterday/ http://www.flowersandphotography.com/blog/2009/10/my-girls-yesterday/#comments Wed, 28 Oct 2009 18:44:41 +0000 Corrine http://www.flowersandphotography.com/blog/?p=1093 When I was younger- dancing was my passion.  What I wouldn’t do to pirouette or leap across a stage.  I loved it!  Performing was a great part of who I was.  I suppose in some ways, I put on a performance every weekend with my weddings– but dancing is different.  It’s a wonderful form of personal expression and a great way to make lifetime friendships.  Many of the girls I danced with are still my closest friends.  It’s amazing to see our girls grow up together– and continue our love for dance through there tiny toes and happy steps.

I decided to pick up the camera and photograph my girls before their dance class yesterday.  It’s a small glimpse into our day– and their adorable faces getting ready for class.  It was a great day.

(I snapped the pictures myself with my trusty little Canon, pretty good, huh?)  -Corrine

Greg photographed them at Bulow Gardens a couple of weeks ago– I know, I know… I’m catching up!  Pheww!  Their pictures turned out wonderful and I’m excited to put together a beautiful engagement book for them.  I’ll post that in a couple of weeks.  Until then, keep smiling… keep shining… and ENJOY EACH OTHER!!! :)
