Hello Tweets! Sorry I've been MIA.. just busy is all!!!!!!!! 2010-06-11
When I met up with Sara and Jeremy they told me they wanted pictures done because the only professional pictures they had of themselves were from their wedding day. They wanted something more casual and something that was “them.” I think we got that guys!!
When Marcus called me and asked me to photograph his wedding I knew right away I was going to like this couple! I mean, it’s really rare that the guy (no offense Marcus) takes care of the photography plans! I knew right away that Jill was very laid back and easy going and I had yet to speak with her! When their wedding day arrived I found out very quickly that I was right! These two were absolutely sincere and beautiful. They had a small elegant ceremony in Navarre Beach surrounded by a few close friends and family members. The sky was a perfect backdrop for their ceremony and pictures! I hope you enjoy the sneak peak!
Marcus Young: Leslie, Love the photo's. You are truly amazing. We couldn't be happier with the results.
For anyone searching for the perfect photographer, search no more! Leslie Roark is hands down the best choice in Florida and surrounding areas. She is completely dedicated to making your day special and a top priority.
Once again, Thank you Leslie!
Yours Truly,
Marcus Young
I have had the the honor to meet so many families since spring break! I have not had the chance to post many of them because it’s been so busy. I’ve finally got a good rhythm going (I think!) to posting blogs more regularly. This is Amber’s family. As you can see it was VERY overcast. About an hour before the shoot I was on the phone with Amber saying.. it’s raining everywhere, we can reschedule if you want. ( I always leave that decision to my clients.) Amber said, “Well, every one is already dressed. Do you think you could come and if it rains we will try again?” Know what it’s like to go through the process of getting children dressed for pictures I said, “Sure!” I’m about 5 minutes from the beach and it’s still sprinkling and I think to myself, “We really are going to have to reschedule.” BUT.. God was (as always) good! The pictures turned out great..even despite it being overcast!! I had a wonderful time with the girls as well. Amber was even able to catch a crab that washed up on shore for the girls to laugh at as she dangled it over my head.. eeek! Enjoy!!!!!!!
Memories by Micha: Stinkin rain but they still looked great!!!
Mom and Dad surely have an advanced little guy on their hands. I hope you all enjoy!
PS.. What do you think about the new border/logo design!? I love it and it’s all thanks to my wonderful bride Kendra! She has been amazing!!
I met up with Jessica and Nathan at Johnson Beach. Jessica had emailed me a few months back and like me, she and Nathan never had a “real” wedding. By real, I mean the big fancy dress with everyone we know invited for a huge celebration! They have been married almost a year and wanted photographs that captured this time of their lives. They were SO awesome. I think I might have asked them to kiss once.. the rest of the time they were all natural! The perfect couple for sure! Jessica and Nathan.. I hope you enjoy your sneak peak!!!
Anonymous: Thank you Leslie!! We had a wonderful time and are thrilled with the pictures! We can't wait to see the rest of them - you're right, we will have a hard time picking out our favorites!

Jason Lanier: There you go getting people wet again! Only crazy photographers do things like that....
Anonymous: I really like this idea of "after wedding" pictures. Maybe one day I can talk Austin into something like this! Also...I am loving the new site layout. Too cute!
