Congratulations, T.I. and Tiny get married in South Florida!

 

The news is out, T.I. and Tiny were married in South Florida this past weekend and I was very blessed to be their official wedding photographer. The ceremony was beautiful, elegant, and full of love. T.I. and Tiny are an amazing couple and I am grateful they chose me to be part of such an intimate part of their lives. The reception was phenomenal! The décor was dramatically exquisite! I can't go into detail because T.I. and Tiny have chosen to keep this part of their highly public life, private (for now). Also, for this reason I can't post any pictures (for now). All I can say is, trust me; this celebration was full of celebrities and glamour! Since Tiny herself divulged this in a recent interview during her husband's movie premiere, I can mention that El DeBarge and Jamie Foxx gave spectacular performances! 

I would like to thank Jordan Victoria of Event Couture, LLC. Her talents were invaluable to this event! Victoria is an amazingly talented woman and I admire her work tremendously. An event of this magnitude is not easy to pull off and she did so with what seemed effortless ease and class.

I would also like to thank the prestigious Grace Ormonde Wedding Style Magazine, as this is where they found me. I can't say enough about how this incredible publication has so profoundly impacted my career.

I can't forget to thank my team Antonio Sanzari (T the Britt) and Lara Rios. You guys Rocked it!

Mind-blowing event!!

 

T.I. has a movie coming out this month, Takers. Ironically enough, he's one of my wife's favorite artists and we are definitely going to make it a date night when it comes out. Goodtimes...

When I look at these pictures gives me the feeling that it would now be at the wedding. You and your team of photographers with whom you have worked you succed very good to be coordinated and have managed to connect to the wedding atmosphere and for that l compliment and I respect the job you have done. Not surprisingly, Grace Ormond's Wedding Style published it.
