Welcome

Welcome to the blog journal for Rob Witzel Photography. This is where we display our newest work and post important updates for our amazing clients and visitors. My wife Marian and I run a successful wedding photography business in Florida with the notion that today’s bride is looking for real moments by real photojournalists. We are the furthest thing from your typical wedding photographer and that is just the way we like it. Take a few moments to look at our work and let us know if you have any questions. Thanks for visiting and we hope you come back often!

Wedding- Matt and Lisa

Anyone that knows me knows that I love a good challenge.

I was honored to be referred to the wedding of Lisa and Matt last month at the Baughman Center and reception at Gainesville Country Club. It was an intimate and beautiful event yet I was only there for
3 hours. For someone that often spends 8-10 hours at an event it became my goal not to just get a fraction of what I normally do but to get a full weddings worth of moments in an abbreviated amount of time.

Luckily I had an amazing couple, wonderful family and gorgeous venues. Truly a great time!

Pretty happy with the results but I will let you be the judge.

Enjoy!!!

Engagement- Carlee & Trey

Such a fun couple. We met on the banks of the historic Suwannee River in Fort White. A little bed and breakfast called the Adam’s House.

They had an old water pump on the grounds that we had some fun with before taking the long stairway down to the river. Trey, a firefighter, was a little taken back by our style at first (everyone usually is) but he figured out what we were up to and just rocked it. Carlee is a natural.

Enjoy!!!

New Pricing for 2010

For many, including us, this has been a long time coming.

We are always looking to evolve into the best option for today’s bride. It has been obvious for some time that our packages and pricing needed to be as unique as our photography itself. After listening to years of feedback we are proud to offer our “Genesis” Pricing System. This offers perspective clients an A’ La Carte option based on common sense and simplicity. Beyond the obvious, our goal is to give couple’s what they want while catering to events from the most intimate to the most lavish. We hope this is a 21st Century solution for the modern bride. We hope you agree.

God Bless!

JG and Maria (Rob)

Could not think of a better way to end 2009 and ring in a prosperous 2010 than with this great couple’s New Year’s Eve wedding bash at Sweetwater Branch. These world travelers had a truly international event and multi-lingual ceremony.

Being a night event meant challenges we have never faced as the ceremony was pretty much by candle light. So glad I have invested in all that low light gear over the past few years as I would have never made it without all those expensive lenses and bodies.

We truly loved this couple and I gotta mention what a great job Marian did at this event. The staff at Sweetwater did an amazing job (as usual) and I feel blessed with the collection of amazing moments we both captured.

Enjoy!

Engagement- Philip and Renee

We spent a couple hours with this fun-loving couple roaming around the UF campus even though they are not Gators (USF fans). So we avoided the orange and blue but took advantage of the architecture and oaks. As we were thinking of something else fun I remembered a pile of leaves near the Gainesville Sun so we headed over there and let them romp around. Only in Florida can you get Autumn photos in December.

Enjoy!

Engagement- Natalie and Jason

Ironically this is the second year in a row that we have had a Natalie and Jason who chose us as their wedding photographers. For this go round we had Jason bring his boat (he is a marine biologist) and we parked it in a grass field at UF. Had no idea what we would be able to do with it but they rocked it (the boat and photos). Finished off at the stadium even though it was graduation day and the placed was packed. Love the shot of her jumping like a fish out of water.

Enjoy!

Engagement- Michael and Lisa

This sports loving couple was so much fun to work with the day after Thanksgiving. We had shot Lisa’s sister Kelly last year and were thrilled to be invited back for this great celebration.

Spent a couple hours at Kanapaha Park and just had a blast going from place to place. We are completely thrilled about covering this event next year!

Wedding- Javier and Kelly

We had the pleasure of sharing this special day with Javier and Kelly (along with their two great kids) two Sundays ago. The event was at the Baughman Center and reception at Steve’s Cafe in Gainesville. It was a great day even with a little bit of rain. We wish this happy family many great days to come.

Enjoy!

Batmitzvah- Noa Jett

We had a great time covering the Batmitzvah celebration for Noa a couple weeks back. She is a great girl who comes from a wonderful family and they sure put on ana amazing celebration.

I will let the pictures speak for themselves.

Enjoy!
