Ballast Point Tampa Engagement Session | Casey + Wayne

When I was planning locations with Casey for her and Wayne’s engagement session we landed on Ballast Point Park which is one of my favorites!!

It’s also dog friendly which was a must so that their sweet pup MJ could be a part of it!

Hyde House Engagement Session | Ellen & Tripp

Ellen and Tripp's engagement session at Hyde House Public Studio was a perfect blend of elegance and love. Florida's heat led us to do an indoor location, where Hyde House's lavish decor and furnishings provided a stunning backdrop. I am obsessed with those giant wooden octagon doors that close and turn into a wall.Ellen and Tripp's engagement session at Hyde House Public Studio was a perfect blend of elegance and love.

Ballast Point Park Engagement Session | Darci + Russell

Ballast point is a hidden little gem right at the very end of Bayshore Blvd and where we did Darci and Russell’s engagement session. At dusk, there’s just a few minutes where the light on the city of Tampa in the distance and light where we were was even and it just looks spectacular with the calm water and pink tones in the sky. Gotta be patient but it’s worth it! I had so much fun hanging out with these 2, we even got a dolphin fin in the background!!

Bayshore Blvd South Tampa Engagement Session | Lauren + Matt

No one seems to know that that big white metal thing on Bayshore is! I always call it the big metal slinky so I finally googled it and actually it is called The Wave, an art piece created by Mary Ann Unger and installed there in 1989. It was created to frame different parts of the city as you walk around and look through it, as well as the rays of light and shadows it creates, pretty cool right? Per my search, Bayshore is also the world;s longest continuous sidewalk at 4.5 miles long, well done Tampa lol.
