Often referred to at The Pink Palace, the Don CeSar in St. Pete Beach is one of our favorite hotel wedding venues. The views are stunning and the beach is sunset perfection!

Club Lake Plantation is located in Apopka, near Orlando and just a short drive from Tampa. This venue is absolutely gorgeous - sprawling grounds, rustic elegance, modern amenities and room for 250 guests. It was the perfect spot for Brittney and Michael’s day. They did an amazing job with the details and decor and booked a solid team of vendors to execute the day.

Patricia and Fernando are just the sweetest couple, we had the best time and it was so fun getting to know them! Pass a Grille is absolutely one of my favorite spots for beach/sunset. The little beach town is so cute and there’s always something new. Patricia had told me that she was going to wear 2 different dresses and one is a little extra with lots of sequins which looked AMAZING with Fernando’s blue suit.

Ashley and Darren have the sweetest pups, Hazel, Remi, and Jax, and of course wanted to include them in their engagement session. When planning locations with dogs it’s important to choose a spot that is dog friendly but also a place where your dog will be happy and comfortable! Crescent lake park is one of the places they go all the time so it was the perfect location.

I photographed Karen and Kraig’s wedding in 2009 (I can’t believe I’m saying that!:-). Life took them out of Tampa and then back again and I got to see them over the holidays for a family session with their 2 handsome boys Kaiden and Kellan.

Kelly and Nick are getting married at one of our favorite Clearwater Beach venues and they wanted to take advantage of that beautiful location for their engagement session as well. We basically had the entire stretch white sandy of beach at Carlouel Yacht Club all to ourselves.

I had the honor of photographing Little miss Angelina’s (Lina for short:-) very first portrait session! She was born in December and makes Brittany, Will, and Camden’s family a beautiful party of 4!

Sarah + Lior’s wedding at Nova 535 was filled to the brim with family and tradition - a true celebration of two families joining. Guests (and couple) traveled from around the world to bring Sarah and Lior together as husband and wife.

We get to work with such amazing and talented professionals for weddings and sometimes we even get to photograph them as well! I’ve known Serina from the wedding industry and was so excited when she asked me to do a portrait session with her, her boyfriend Steven, and their super sweet pup Bogey!

So, I do have a slight obsession with the pink wall and rainbow mural in Hyde Park:-) When Kara asked me about locations for their family session for Amelia’s 2nd birthday I knew it was totally their style. What a little doll!!! She has the most squeezable cheeks and that smile!

We are so happy that events are back in full force! If you’ve been around a while, you’ve seen that we LOVE Metropolitan Ministries and photograph many of their fundraisers and events. This event was the Pasco Leaders Luncheon hosted by Advent Health Center Ice. It’s such a cool (literally:-) venue as they cover the ice and the event is right on the ice.

Being from the midwest, it’s not lost on me how fortunate we are to be such an amazing destination location for weddings! One of the best parts is that I get to meet in person, and do engagement sessions for our couples while they’re here in town doing wedding planning things! Bonnie and Mike are from New Jersey and planning their destination wedding here in Clearwater Beach.

Cathy and Dominic chose the beautiful Don Cesar for their destination wedding and we got to spend some time with them for their engagement session while they were here doing some wedding planning things.

We are obsessed with the tropical vibes from Megan & Anh’s wedding at the Florida Aquarium in Tampa! These two lovebirds are so sweet! Seriously, working with them was wonderful, they have hearts of gold and wanted to have a great time, first and foremost!

Sarah’s parents got this sweet pup, Toby, and of course she and Lior had to include him in their engagement photos. How adorable is that little pup sized tux? They actually live in Tel Aviv and I got to spend time with them the week before their wedding doing this beautiful session.

I got to see Tom, Candace, Hailey, and Patrick for their annual family session and they rocked it! I love the steps of the Le Meridien in downtown Tampa because it’s just a light and neutral background with lines and columns that look amazing in photos.
