Marisa + Daniel Step Into The Limelight | Baker's Ranch | Parrish, FL

Lilac, Silver & Navy Love at Bakers Ranch: A Simplistic-Elegant Wedding Story

The palette was soft yet striking: lilac, silver, and dark navy blue flowed through every element of the day, creating a refined balance of color. Their wedding at Bakers Ranch in Parrish, Florida bore the hallmarks of a love rooted in simplicity, elegance, and genuine connection.

How Their Story Began

They first met at a college house party in 2016, when fate nudged two paths to intersect. Over years of growth, laughter, and shared dreams, their bond grew stronger. Eventually, he proposed one evening on a sunset beach — the horizon glowing in gold and pink as their love story reached its next chapter.

What They Cherished in Each Other

Daniel admired her persistence, her drive toward life goals, and the way she radiated goodness. The moment he first saw her, he felt a wave of excitement and inner peace settle over him — a duality so rare. Marisa mirrored that sentiment exactly. They felt their souls had whispered, “Here is home,” from the same moment.

Together they loved working out, soaking up the sun, taking walks at sunset, relaxing at Chili’s, and spending time with their beloved animals. Their shared hobbies grounded them, but their wedding would reflect the blossoming of their shared dreams.

The Vision & Venue: Bakers Ranch

They wanted a wedding that spoke to European accents and country courtyard charm, yet remained simplistic and elegant. Bakers Ranch — known for its blend of rustic charm and sophisticated amenities — was the ideal canvas.

Set on a property that offers multiple ceremony sites, grand oak trees, European-inspired architecture, and a Tudor-style reception ranch house, Bakers Ranch allowed the couple to shape their vision with flexibility and refinement. Its air-conditioned Ranch House, exposed wood beams, romantic balcony, and elegant chandeliers provided a reception backdrop that balanced warmth with elegance.

One of their chosen ceremony sites was the Ancient Oaks Canopy, where Spanish moss-draped branches and a winding aisle offered a natural, soulful setting.

Moments They Held Close

Their most cherished moment came during their “first touch”, when they read private vows without seeing each other — emotion swelled as their words bridged the space between them. The bride later reflected that walking down the aisle and the first dance would remain forever in their hearts. Other standout moments included the bouquet toss to the special women in their lives, and witnessing guests relax, smile, and celebrate the night away.

They also infused personal touches: wedding favors were hand fans printed with the day-of timeline, marrying functionality and sentiment. Every detail echoed their taste and story.

Why This Wedding Felt Uniquely Theirs

While many weddings boast color schemes or themes, theirs felt uniquely them. The color palette matched their personalities — soft yet confident, quiet yet expressive. The overall vibe was relaxed elegance, not overdone or flashy. Even their small DIY touches were purposeful and personal.

Captured Through the Lens of Limelight

From the subtle glints of silver in the tabletop decor to the nervous smile before the first touch, Limelight’s style of blending candid emotion with artful composition honored the couple’s love and the venue’s beauty.

Faith + Christian Step Into The Limelight | The CURRENT Hotel | Tampa, FL

Faith & Christian’s Intimate Wedding at The CURRENT Hotel

As a Tampa Florida Photographer, I absolutely love capturing weddings that are all about meaningful connection, and Faith and Christian’s wedding at The CURRENT Hotel was exactly that — relaxed, personal, and full of heartfelt moments.

Faith and Christian’s love story began in Texas while they were both in college. Their shared passion for sports brought them together — first as student-athletes, now as coaches — and as loving parents to their adorable daughter, Mavrie. Watching the three of them interact throughout the day was so special. You could feel the strength of their bond and how much joy they bring each other.

Their vision was clear from the start: a small, intimate wedding with their closest friends and family. With soft, neutral tones and a classic yet casual vibe, every detail felt authentic to who they are. The ceremony took place with beautiful waterfront views, and the love in the air was undeniable. Faith’s nana created a custom bouquet cover, adding a sentimental touch to an already meaningful day.

Their day was peaceful and deeply rooted in love. As a storyteller who values photojournalistic photography, it was an honor to capture the small, candid in-between moments: Faith and Christian exchanging sweet smiles, Mavrie holding her parents’ hands, and guests soaking in the joy of the day.

As someone who specializes in wedding photography in Tampa Florida, I’m always reminded that the most beautiful weddings aren’t always the loudest — they’re the ones that feel most true to the couple. Faith and Christian’s day was a perfect example of that.

If you’re planning a wedding that’s simple, classic, and focused on genuine moments — we would be honored to document your love story with wedding photography Tampa Florida style.

Lindsey + Davis Step Into The Limelight | Cross Creek Ranch | Dover, FL

Lindsey & Davis’s Magical Ranch Wedding at Cross Creek Ranch

After photographing Lindsey and Davis’s beachy engagement session at Redington Shores last year, I knew their wedding would be something special—and wow, was it ever.

Held at the gorgeous Cross Creek Ranch (aka Florida’s dreamiest all-inclusive venue), their big day was the perfect blend of rustic charm, elegant details, and all the feels.

The morning kicked off in The Main House, where Lindsey, her bridesmaids, and both moms got glammed up. There were champagne toasts, nonstop laughter, and a sweet moment when the bridesmaids gathered to pray over Lindsey before she walked down the aisle.

Cue the waterworks for not one, but three first looks. First with her dad on the bridge, then with Davis’s son Mason (so sweet!), and finally, a tearful, joyful serene moment with Davis in the greenhouse.

The ceremony took place in The Enchanted Forest, yes, it’s as magical as it sounds. Surrounded by towering oaks and lush greenery, Lindsey and Davis said “I do” in front of their closest family and friends.

Then it was on to the Carriage House Stable for a cozy, candlelit reception. Think rustic barn vibes with vintage flair and an antique bar. The toasts kicked off with laughter and love, but their son Mason stole the spotlight with a heartfelt speech that had everyone reaching for tissues.

A sparkler exit and a light drizzle wrapped up the night in the most romantic way possible. Rain or shine, these two radiated pure joy and I’m so honored I got to capture it all.

Congrats, Lindsey & Davis what a day!
