03.28.2026 | The Rustica | Vero Beach, Florida
Kim and Matt’s story is one of those effortlessly fun, meant-to-be connections that feels genuine from the very start. Originally from Jersey, they’ve brought that perfect mix of personality, humor, and heart with them to Florida—and it shows in everything they do together. Whether it’s a spontaneous karaoke night, diving into all things Pokémon, or getting creative with arts and crafts, these two truly enjoy each other in a way that’s both playful and deeply rooted.
Matt’s role as a firefighter adds another layer to who they are as a couple—grounded in strength, selflessness, and a deep commitment to others. It’s a calling that speaks volumes about his character, and it’s clear that same sense of dedication carries into the life he’s building with Kim.
Our connection to them makes this wedding even more special. We first met Kim through our son Owen, where she’s been such an important and caring part of his journey as his speech therapist. Getting to know her in that role, and now having the honor of documenting one of the biggest days of her life with Matt, feels incredibly full circle.

January 24, 2026 marks the beginning of something truly special — not only for Dani and Sam, but for us as well.
Our first wedding of 2026 brings us to The Rustica in Vero Beach, Florida, a stunning venue filled with warmth, charm, and timeless character. As Vero Beach wedding photographers and filmmakers, it was an honor to capture Dani and Sam’s heartfelt celebration — a love story rooted in family, fate, and deep connection.
Dani and Sam’s journey to us began in the most unexpected way. By chance, they were attending a mutual friend’s gathering when Dani noticed Lou wearing Everlasting Films & Photography apparel.
That simple moment sparked a conversation.
That conversation led to a consultation.
And that consultation quickly turned into an instant connection.



























What makes this story even sweeter is something we learned later. Before that conversation ever happened — before they officially met us — Dani and her girlfriend had already been on our website, drawn in by our storytelling and artistry.
Sometimes the universe works quietly in the background, lining things up long before we realize it.
Today, Dani and Sam are surrounded by the people who mean the most to them — their two beautiful children, their family, and an incredible circle of support who have helped shape the life they share.
This wedding isn’t just a celebration — it’s a reflection of years of love, growth, and commitment. A day built on togetherness, laughter, and the deep knowing that family is at the heart of everything they do.
As Vero Beach wedding photographers and filmmakers, it’s an honor to be trusted with preserving these moments — the quiet glances, the joyful tears, the hugs that linger a little longer.

Jose asked Sonia to marry him in NYC during the holidays in 2018 and then quickly came to see us about photographing their wedding. We had the chance to work with Jose several years ago when we shot his brother’s wedding and absolutely loved his family and friends, so you can imagine how excited we were to work with them again. Sonia’s super sweet and gentle demeanor totally compliments Jose and their expected bundle of joy only adds to the celebration on this amazing evening wedding at Aria in Prospect, CT. Congratulations to the happy couple on all of the excitement that 2019 has brought them – building of their new home, new jobs, and soon-to-be new role as parents. #2become1machado #makeiteverlastingCT Read More

Love is sweeter the second time around! This couldn’t be any truer than in the case of Terri + Greg. As parents to 3 adult children collectively, these two have been through many phases in life and have a deep sense and knowing of who they are and what they want. They’re down-to-earth, hard-working people who’ve chosen to celebrate their nuptials at their very own home among their family and friends in a setting where they and everyone else can just be themselves. We are so very happy for these two and the energy they exude and we can’t wait to capture what will surely be some amazing moments! Read More

Dana & Randy are middle school sweethearts… but not the kind that met when they were 12! In fact, it was much later in life when their paths crossed as middle school teachers. They have been connected ever since. They spent their beginning days sneaking away to NYC exploring while enjoying one another’s company. They found that one of their most cherished locations was the Dumbo section of Brooklyn so when Randy popped the question and Dana said YES, it only came naturally that we’d head there for their session. We are over the moon from their April wedding.

THE GRANDVIEW | 03 . 29 . 19
After 5 years, Amanda and Ryan are saying ‘I Do’ at the beautiful Grandview in Poughkeepsie, NY. Our time with these two has been wonderful! They are funny, sarcastic, and so easy to be around. For their engagement session, they told us about their love for the outdoors and so we ran with it. Despite the onslaught of mosquitoes and the very cold stream water, Amanda and Ryan still kicked off their shoes and made it an unforgettable experience for all of us. Here are a few of their favorites from that day. Congratulations guys!!! It’s going to be a beautiful day! #TheGrandview #springwedding #CTphotographer #SouthfordFalls #makeiteverlastingCT #CTweddings #NYweddings Read More
