    I just love the feel of this destination wedding for Valerie and Charles. They were married on the beach just before sunset on a beautiful September day. The romantic gaze they kept casting towards one another was totally all them! The sand bar that appeared as the tide went out looked like a perfect Bar Harbor kind of wedding. I love anything that reminds me of Maine Weddings, specifically here where the tide going out reveals the sandbar for you to walk across, or play in. The light and soft hazy sunset glow was the icing on the cake, for me. “We know only too well that what we are doing is nothing more than a drop in the ocean. But if the drop were not…

Megan + Sean Wedding | Largo Beach Wedding | St. Petersburg, Florida Wedding Photographer

Megan and Sean had such a beautiful wedding on Largo Beach in early November. There are some couple’s that look at each other in a way that I can’t even try to design when posing them; Megan and Sean were that couple. The notes they wrote to each other before they saw each other on their wedding day began with a card that BOTH said was not nearly big enough to write what they were feeling. That is so huge, to need to tell each other why you are the lucky one. Sean repeated each of his vows, changing them to emphasize how much Megan meant to him. They both wore smiles all day long that looked like they had just won the jackpot! Ok…

Robin + Tom Wedding | Selby Gardens Wedding Photographer | Sarasota Florida Wedding

0007

Robin and Tom were married in October at Marie Selby Botanical Gardens in Sarasota, Florida and it was the most romantic setting. Garden weddings are already romantic but I loved all of the unique details of theirs. Some of my favorite of the unique details were Robin’s floral crown which was SO gorgeous in her curly hair, the the chandelier hung in the banyan tree, the rustic chairs and tables in the middle of the trees just a stones throw away from the coast, and the sparkler lit boat send off. They are obviously UGA fans as well.. which can be seen in the dance shots below. Sasha from Oh So Classy Events put together quite possibly THE PRETTIEST outdoor garden reception I have ever…

Katie + Deleno | Tampa Florida Wedding – Destination Wedding Photographer

The art of photography is cool and all, but the people!! That is what I love the most. I sat and listened intently during the bridesmaid speech as Katie’s sister told all about their grandmother who had passed away. She said their grandmother’s wish for the girls when they visited her in the hospital was for them to find a love like she had had with their grandfather. Kelly believed Katie and Deleno possessed exactly this type of love that their grandmother was talking about. We all sat in the room with eyes welling with tears, and I felt like I was part of the family listening to the stories. Some really awesome New England photographers, Justin and Mary, say it perfectly on their site…..

Amy + Ketan | Bok Tower Wedding – Tampa Wedding Photographer

Amy and Katen were married at Bok Tower Gardens in Lake Wales, Florida. I love so much about this wedding but a few of my favorite highlights are the first look (it is absolutely breathtaking), the Indian food (cause YUM) and some of those fun portraits they were willing to go back out and do! They found me through one of my greatest past couples who just fell in love with my photography, and I am humbled and honored to be referred to all their friends. So many of Ketan’s family came over from India, that with so large of a party you’d think they would love the intimate feel, but they didn’t! I watched in awe as so many of his family who had never met…
