Stephanie & Michael | 8.16.08 | Tallahassee Wedding Photographer

Another successful rain dance!  It was forecasted to pour all day yesterday (and did all morning) but when I arrived at First Baptist Church of Tallahassee for Steph and Mike’s wedding the rain stopped, clouds parted, and the sun shined!  Stephanie deserved nothing less for her wedding day that she’s been planning for…forever!  Radiant is the only word I can use to describe how she looked and acted all day long.  She kept her cool through rain, a cold sore, sick flower girl, and the rest of the typical wedding day stress.  I hope you guys are enjoying your cruise!  Can’t wait for your Trash the Dress session!

The beautiful flowers were designed by Sheri Smith of Snapdragon Events:

One of my favorite details from my own wedding were the rose petal cones that we put together.  I was so happy Steph wanted to do the same thing!  I helped her design them, and I can do the same for YOU, just ask!

The boys tried to steal the show:

But they had a bit of competition:

I loved Stephanie’s expression as she looked at her dad walking down the aisle:

She was giddy through the whole ceremony!  She just couldn’t contain her excitement to finally be marrying Mike:

Putting those rose petal cones to good use….I love this shot:

We snuck outside for a quick frolic in the woods:

And Stephanie waited until we were in the middle of a briar patch to let us know she didn’t have any shoes on!

So Mike carried her into the middle of the trees for one last shot:

    Awesome job, Kylene…. I love the image in the forest _ you made it look romantic and I can’t ever do that. I am so envious. I am going to attempt some romancing images next weekend for a Miami Wedding so stay tuned two month from now when I finally edited them. j/k

    Thanks for all the comments… Annabella is getting so big it excites me. She is starting pre pre-school this week for three hours a day just two days a week. But I am looking forward to the gym and promote time for me.

    Hope to see you soon…. keep up the great work.

    They look great as usual! I am glad that Stephanie’s day turned out to be brilliant. It is deserving that the bride who practically hired a photographer before she even got engaged was able to get the wedding (and pictures) she dreamed of. I love you, and will be back soon

  3. Sam (Mike's Sister) says

    The pictures turned out GREAT!!! I know that Michael and Stephanie are going to love them! You did a wonderful job! My favorite is the one in the middle of the woods! It’s perfect!!! I can’t wait to see the rest of them! You’re awesome! 🙂

    Kylene – you did a great job on these!! Stephanie and Mike are new friends of ours from our church in Lakeland. I’m so excited that you posted these! I’m going to email the link to our entire small group as none of us were able to make it to the wedding. PS. I think the dip kiss in the woods should be a huge wall portrait!

  5. Ciara (the friend that she vents to about the WEDDING) says

    GREAT PICTURES!!!!!! Love you both!!!!! It was a blast!!!! Yall look wonderful!!!!!

    Hi Kylene, I couldn’t find your email address anywhere so I hope it’s okay I’m commenting instead…I absolutely LOVE your work…I just flipped through some of your wedding pictures and my GOODNESS!!! I didn’t want to stop scrolling down to see more! I would LOVE to feature some of your work on my blog, but I respect that they are your images, so I thought I’d ask first if it might be okay. Please let me know, you can email me at: itsajaimething@yahoo.com. I write the wedding blog, “It’s A Jaime Thing” – If I could feature you & share your work, I know my readers would be in inspiration Heaven. Also, wondering if you might be interested in a possible link exchange? I’d be happy to add you to my list of favorite wedding photographers. Please let me know.

The BEST investment I made for our wedding day was definitely booking Kylene and Ryan Studios! It was such a blessing to have you both there to capture all of the PERFECT moments of that day. You all made us feel comfortable and relaxed in front of the lens and all around were pleasant to be around.

Jordan

Kylene and Ryan are the worlds best photographers! Not only did I love every picture they took but they also were great to work with. I am not the greatest when it comes to taking pictures and knowing what I might like but they knew exactly what I wanted even when I didn’t. I would highly recommend them for every event.

Ellen

They were the absolute best! So friendly, so fun and professional. The photos were amazing and they took the time to get some of the more ridiculous shots I requested. BONUS: they were amazing with our nephew. He is autistic. He was our ring-bearer and was having a difficult day, which isn’t unexpected for a day like that. Could not recommend enough.

Nora

Hands down, I would recommend Kylene & Ryan to anyone in a heartbeat. We used them for our engagement photos, a boudoir shoot for me, and our wedding photography. Every single time we saw their work, we were blown away. What first drew us to them was their beautiful work–but what also hooked us was how incredibly fun, sweet, professional, and hard-working they are.

Jenna

Wow, what an incredible experience! It was such a joy working with this team. They had us laughing and enjoying every minute of our special day. And the pictures are STUNNING! They really went above and beyond to create unique and memorable moments we will cherish always.
