Linley + Bobby Step Into The Limelight | Fort De Soto Park | Tierra Verde, FL

We could not have asked for a better day to celebrate Linley + Bobby’s engagement with a portrait session! ☀️ Such a wonderful couple!!!!!!  It was such a pleasure photographing this session! We just adore this sweet couple. 🥰 And we loved meeting their doggie 🐶 Riley and Linley’s twin Ashley as well!❣️

Linley and Bobby met at a friends pool party and hit it off immediately. Bobby worked up the courage to text her the next day and make plans for their first date. They went to see a movie in the park that they paid no attention to because there were too busy getting to know each other so well! 

Bobby planned Linley's proposal by talking with her brother-in-law and getting the inside details about how to ask her parents. Bobby asked both of her parents the weekend after Thanksgiving and they were very supportive. Bobby purchased Linley’s engagement ring from Blue Nile and actually built the ring from scratch to match one that Linley liked. Bobby proposed to Linley in front of the Rockefeller Christmas tree on their first trip to New York for Christmas time! Linley was shocked and so happy to say YES! 

Congratulations 🎊 We can’t wait to photograph your wedding at Innisbrook, A Salamander Golf & Spa Resort!I

Adriana + Matthew Step Into The Limelight | Circle B Bar Reserve | Lakeland, FL

I had quite the pleasure of meeting both Adriana and Matt on this beautiful, overcast day. We explored a park in Lakeland where the two had already had a nice stroll before earlier in their relationship. Both Adriana and Matt could not stop looking at each other - they love each other’s company so much and you could tell by the smiles and laughter the two would have together. It was such a great day! The two lovebirds will be saying their I-Do’s mid November and we cannot wait! Congratulations on your engagement!!!

Kimberly + Will Step Into The Limelight | The Don CeSar | St. Petersburg, FL

Kimberly & Will

Our story began in 2007 at Wharton High School in math class. We became friends after this math class that Will claimed to struggle in - he asked me to tutor him. We both had the same taste in music and were in sports. One time Will let me borrow a Sublime CD that I have yet to return to him. He still asks for it every time he wants to be funny. Years went by we went off to college but  remained friends. After I graduated college we started hanging out again. We enjoyed running, working out and began to travel together. After numerous miles that we ran, weights that were lifted, adventures that took place around the world and 3 years later Will got down on one knee on the beach in St. Petersburg, Florida.  

Kim - Loves Will’s patience . Will - Loves Kim’s ambition. Together they enjoy working out and traveling. 

Their elegant wedding day was inspired by a focus on flowers and a white color scheme.  Their wedding was truly a happy and exciting celebration. Their party had everyone up and dancing!

Ali + John Step Into The Limelight | Vinoy® Renaissance Resort & Golf Club | St. Petersburg , FL

Ali and John met in Washington DC, They have a lot in common as far as interests and hobbies go and enjoy boating, being outside, and sports. John proposed to Ali at sunset on the balcony of our hotel in Cabo Mexico while they were on vacation. It was the sweetest moment and a new beginning for the couple.

This lovely couple said their I-Do’s at the beautiful Vinoy in downtown St Pete. They chose this venue because they wanted a wedding that represented the area and The Vinoy was just that.  They chose to meld "old Florida" with classic St. Pete which was just perfect! The two are both from Florida, but not from St. Pete, so they both wanted to make sure to capture all of that in the wedding theme and location. Utilizing oranges and orange colored florals, the wedding had that classic Florida feel. The ceremony site was lined with greenery on the floor with candles, reception was filled with little orange blossoms, oranges as placement “cards” and candles to light each table. Congratulations to the newly weds!

WeddingWire Networking Night Tampa | The Vault | Tampa, FL

What a wonderful networking night at The Vault hosted by Wedding Wire! 

As experienced wedding vendors we all know that this is the most popular time of year for men and women to ‘pop the question’ to their sweethearts. Wedding Wire’s networking event provided the opportunity for Tampa Bay’s vendors to come together to talk about their services and what they can provide a future bride and groom. We have evolved with ‘friendors’ as we like to call them (vendor friends we LOVE and have worked with for years), but its also key to meet new vendors to provide us the opportunity to gain a fresh prospective and grow as our clients seek out the newest trends. So…when the wedding bells start ringing we can pull all of the knowledge we have to make our bride and grooms experience the best Tampa Bay has to offer!
