Beach Wedding

Saturday night found us on the beach, photographing a lovely wedding on the wide, white sand beach of the Holiday Inn.

Sara and Canaan "tied the knot" before a crowd of family and friends and then Sara, Canaan and I ventured out to the lagoon at Little Estero Island and then on to the beach for a glorious sunset photo session.

Then we all returned to the Inn's banquet room for a reception with dancing, great food, tearful toasts, and loads of fun.

Tough job, but somebody's got to do it!

Blues on the Green


Fort Myers Beach's Island Arts Foundation sponsored a two day "Blues on the Green – the Seaside Soul Serenade" event this past weekend. It was a fantastic array of great Blues artists, blue skies, great food, cold beer and "Yahoo" watermelon...a real down-home experience on our sunny island paradise's Golf Course.

Here's Sean Carney and the "Queen of Boogie Woogie" Wendy DeWitt jamming on Saturday.

A particularly rewarding experience, made all the more so by seeing that there was not one single piece of litter left on the ground any time during the concert -- We're a pretty environmentally aware group of folks here on the island, and it showed in how we treated the venue.
