Our Blue Springs Photo Shoot

Tuesday, August 18th, 2009 at 12:30am

I’m so excited our pictures from our Blue Springs photo shoot with Lindsey of Pure Photography are up! I only stalked her blog like every day since the shoot. :-)

If you didn’t know (from one of my previous posts), we actually won this shoot with the amazing Lindsey. A Gainesville invitation designer, Unique Designs, was having a free photography session giveAway with Lindsey in celebration of their new blog and website.

When we won, Mr. Knight and I knew we wanted to do something totally different. So, Lindsey suggested we head over to Blue Springs in High Springs, FL for some cool/blue/crystal clear/watery fun! Bring some balloons into the mix and you have a pretty sweet Gator/Knight photo shoot. ↓

Lindsey probably got some hilarious pictures of us getting in the water. It was soo cold but still refreshing (it was incredibly hot that day). We probably made so many weird faces when we were getting in. Ahh.. can’t wait to see!

More sweet Knight and Gator kisses in the Springs This was taken in what was called the ‘Naked Spring’ at Blue Springs. Love the lighting.

I just love how blue the water is. This is at the main spring, taken right under the jumping platform. Mr. Knight was an expert floater… me on the other hand… I had a rough time trying to stay up with my dress. It was like a sail under the water.

Miss Gator and Mr Knight laughing This picture totally encompasses Mr. Knight and I’s personality. We can’t help but laugh at just about everything. It is incredibly difficult for us to make serious faces… especially when our picture is being taken. But we managed to stop for a split second to get this one↓

Umm… Making out in front of people swimming at the springs… AWKWARD! But worth it. :-)

Mr. Knight and I would like to thank Unique Designs for having such a cool giveAway and Lindsey, of Pure Photography, for taking some incredibly unique pictures of us. We are so thankful and feel lucky to have been given such a great opportunity.

    You’re so sweet. I feel grateful to YOU two for being so awesome and fulfilling my year-long dream to shoot at a Spring! :) And for convincing several of my brides to do After Sessions at the Springs. ;)

    Mr. Knight and Miss Gator,

    I absolutely love your Blue Springs photo shoot. I think it’s very creative and very fresh and you both are so freaking adorable. You’ve definitely given me an idea about a water photo shoot that I would have never considered.

    @Lauren: Yes, we are quite in love, wouldn’t trade her for the world.

    @Lindsey: It was super fun and if you ever need us to do crazy shoots again, we’ll be happy to. You’re a great photographer.

    @Melissa: Yeah, that was the goal. We already did engagement photos with Starks Photography and they were awesome. We wanted to do something different for this one and now we have two sets of photos to enjoy forever. Our kids will one day be like, “Mom and Dad looked good back then… what happened?”. Haha.

    @Hayat: Lindsey’s definitely awesome to do it with. She’s local, personable, and talented (obviously). She even got her feet wet a few times just to get the right angle. :-)
