The first time I met Horatio, he showed my Mom and I the most beautiful (yet not "boring") wedding pictures I could have imagined. My Mom was in tears from the beauty, I was in tears from Horatio... He is HILARIOUS!!! Just the type of guy you want with you all day on your wedding day; I don't think there's any way that you could have jitters with him by your side.

When I called him with the idea for our engagement photos, he yawned. He said we could do it, sure, but we were too "rad" (it's not lame when he says that word!!) for boring pictures in a field. He sent me back to the drawing board. We settled on the Sarasota Architectural Salvage Yard for the pictures; along with our tandem bike. Then Horatio called. "Find a classic car, would you?" We found ourselves a black 1950s Lincoln Continental and shot with that as the sun went down. Horatio blew my mind. I have never looked at a picture and just stared at it without finding something wrong.

Horatio captured the offbeat, silly vibe of the Mister and I, while making sure that our photos were classicly beautiful.

He made us both feel so comfortable during the entire shoot.

On our wedding day, he brought laughter and stress-relief into the room just as Mom needed it. By his side was his lovely wife, Veronica, who shot with him: they're an amazing team. Horatio snapped an amazing picture and texted it to me during the ceremony, so I immediately had a picture to hold me over!

He promised me during our first meeting "you won't remember seeing me, so you'll think I didn't get any pictures, but trust me, I'm getting everything." Since I didn't see Horatio at any time beside the bouquet toss (we were face-to-face, after all), I can only imagine that he held up to his end of the promise.

Horatio is an out-of-the-box photographer, who captures classic moments.

I can't wait to trash a dress with him, , because I know he's going to have a great idea.
