Photo time at the Gaylord Palms

I've spent the past week in Orlando, Florida with my friend Brittany, as part of my final summer trip. We both attended the National Society of Collegiate Scholars conference, appropriately titled Scholarcon. It was a great conference with many impressive speakers, ending with John Legend as the keynote speaker. Of course, Legend couldn't leave without performing a few songs for us, and I have a fantastic video of part of his performance that I will upload for you in my next post. For now, take a look at the photo shoot I did with Brittany while at the Gaylord Palms Resort. If you've never been to the Gaylord Palms, I highly recommend it. It's like a small city inside with shops, several restaurants (including one on a boat), a full-fledged convention center, and a lot of wildlife to look at . . . hence it made a near perfect backdrop for our photo shoot.

Fellows Riverside Gardens Photo Shoot

What do you do when you have a camera, a beautiful friend, 

and the Fellows Riverside Gardens at your disposal? You do a photo shoot, of course! 

Mystina, my friend of almost 8 years, and I decided to brave the overcast weather today and head on over to the gardens. Here's what came of our fun! 

One of my favorites of the day!

The flag still looks great, even in cloudy weather

Probably my favorite of the day!!!
