Creating the Perfect Vision | Sara & Javaris' Maternity Session
Jul 17, 2025

One of the best parts of what I do is getting to walk through so many seasons of life with the amazing couples I photograph. I’ve known Sara and Javaris since their engagement session and wedding day, and it’s been such a joy to stay connected over the years. Being able to capture this next chapter as they prepare to become parents was truly so special!

Christina and Dan’s wedding at the Wyndham Grand Clearwater Beach was everything you’d dream of for a Clearwater destination wedding—elegant, coastal, and full of heartfelt, personal touches. With light pink and neutral tones, every detail felt perfectly soft, romantic, and beachy. The girls got ready in Christina and Dan’s suite after they were done with hair and makeup while the guys did photos and hung out in the lobby after they were ready.
