Story of Niska and Bryan started a few years ago when they first met at Disney where they both worked. When Bryan asked Niska out, she said: “Sure, we can hang out as friends I guess”. To which Bryan said: “We shall see”. Little by little, Bryan surely conquered the heart of this Haitian beauty and the friend zone was soon forgotten as a thing.

Engagement photo session was a blast with these two. They tended to trust me with all the ideas since previously they had worked with me already (and loved their graduation photos!). Honestly, I didn’t even have to come up with much guidance as Niska and Bryan were just having a good time and I was taking a lot of candid photos of them. That was an absolute success!

Their wedding scheduled for January 3^rd,2023 was the best beginning of the year both families could wish for. It was celebrated in the most unique town in Florida called Saint Augustine. This place lays claim to being the oldest city in U.S., and is known for its Spanish colonial architecture as well as Atlantic Ocean beaches. Millions of tourists from around the world visit St. Augustine to enjoy the gorgeous scenery, museums and monuments, little shops, and welcoming restaurants.

Niska and Bryan wanted their wedding to be special, and St. Augustine seemed like a perfect place. Niska’s vision for the First Look really resonated with Castillo de San Marcos. Well built, sturdy, powerful, secure, indestructible. Exactly like the marriage they were ready to begin.

The ceremony and reception took place at Ponce de Leon’s Fountain of Youth Archaeological Park. Some happy tears were shed, dancing took away the night, and everyone enjoyed the laughter, music, great food, and fantastic toasts.

 

Congratulations to Niska and Bryan on this most important journey of their lives! May this love always shine as bright as it did on their beautiful wedding day!
