Ariel + Rodney Step Into The Limelight | Tampa Courthouse | Tampa, FL

An Intimate Tampa Courthouse Wedding

Ariel and Rodney celebrated their love with a simple and meaningful courthouse ceremony in downtown Tampa. It was one of those warm, quiet mornings where everything felt centered around the couple and their closest family members.

We started the day at the courthouse, where the focus was on documenting the small details that make these moments feel personal: the rings, the florals, and the sweet touches they chose for their day. Once Ariel arrived and the ceremony began, we captured the emotion and closeness of the moment in a space that felt intimate and heartfelt.

Afterward, we stepped outside for portraits of the newlyweds. The light, the setting, and the easy connection between them made the photos feel natural and romantic. Their immediate family and their lovely kids joined in for family portraits, creating a soft and genuine set of memories for them to look back on.

It was a simple day, but full of love, the kind of celebration that reminds you what really matters.

Haley + Todd Step Into The Limelight | Longboat Key Club | Longboat Key, FL

A Longboat Key Club Wedding Filled With Calm, Laughter, and Love.

When two Scorpios meet, the universe definitely stirs things up in the best possible way. That’s exactly how it was for Haley Geoffroy and Todd Keebaugh, whose story began back in 2017 when they worked for the same company. Life eventually led them in different directions, but years later, LinkedIn did what dating apps couldn’t… it brought them back together. A simple message, a drink to “catch up,” and suddenly, the spark was undeniable.

Their proposal was just as perfectly them, equal parts sentimental and spontaneous. During a birthday weekend getaway in Longboat Key (they’re both Scorpios, celebrating just ten days apart!), Todd suggested they stop by the new St. Regis before dinner with his parents. A walk on the beach turned into a life-changing moment when Haley turned around to find Todd on one knee, ocean breeze swirling around them, the kind of calm and beauty that only the sea and true love can bring.

That same peaceful energy carried through to their wedding day at The Resort at Longboat Key Club. The couple envisioned something intimate, heartfelt, and joyful, a celebration surrounded by their closest family and friends in a place they consider their second home. The golf course views reflected one of their favorite shared passions, but it was their connection that truly set the tone.

Even when strong rain rolled in right before the ceremony, neither of them lost their calm. Todd’s serene presence balanced Haley’s joyful excitement perfectly, like the still ocean meeting a warm breeze. It felt as though the rain had arrived with a purpose: to wash away any heaviness from the air so their life together could begin clear, bright, and overflowing with blessings.

And when the skies cleared, the light seemed to glow just for them. The way Todd looked at Haley was like watching the sunset over the sea, soft, steady, and full of peace.

Haley looked stunning in a gown that felt as if it had been waiting for her all along, and later changed into a second dress that fit like it was designed just for the dance floor. Todd’s midnight blue tuxedo, a nod to Penn State and his ocean-colored eyes, added the perfect touch of classic charm.

The day was filled with thoughtful details and playful moments, like a round of glow-in-the-dark mini golf during cocktail hour that kept everyone laughing. Their cake, a delicious mix of salted caramel and Boston Crème, mirrored the texture and beauty of Haley’s dress, a detail Todd didn’t discover until that sweet moment of cutting it together.

Behind all the beauty, there was also a lot of heart and creativity. Haley crafted nearly everything by hand, from the welcome sign and bar menus to embroidered napkins, koozies, and personalized putting green flags. With her Cricut, sewing machine, and embroidery tools, she poured her creativity into every corner of the day, making it truly their own.

From start to finish, Haley and Todd’s wedding felt like them, joyful, grounded, and full of love. It wasn’t about perfection; it was about presence. The laughter, the quiet moments, the way she reached for his hand, and the way his calm steadied everyone around them.

Their day at The Resort at Longboat Key Club was more than a wedding; it was a reflection of two souls who make each other better, who balance, complete, and calm the world around them.

To Haley and Todd: Thank you for letting me be part of such an incredible moment in your lives. Watching the rain give way to sunshine felt like witnessing the start of something truly blessed. May your journey together always be filled with peace, laughter, and a love as radiant as the light after the storm.
- With love, Natalia

The wedding day at Town Manor perfectly reflected their personalities — elegant, sophisticated, yet refreshingly relaxed. Surrounded by their closest family and friends, they exchanged vows as the sun dipped below Lake Juliana, casting a golden glow over the ceremony.

Alexis + Christian Step Into The Limelight | The Hyatt Regency Clearwater Beach Resort & Spa | Clearwater Beach, FL

Alexis and Christian’s wedding day at the gorgeous Hyatt Clearwater Beach Resort & Spa was the perfect reflection of who they are—romantic, joyful, and completely devoted to one another and their beautiful family. From the moment I arrived, I could feel the excitement and love in the air.

Their story began back in 2021 when a Bumble match led to a sunset walk on Treasure Island Beach. Fast forward to their engagement—Christian proposed in that very same spot, with their daughter strapped to his chest and family and friends secretly watching nearby. It was the sweetest, most genuine start to the next chapter of their love story.

Their wedding day felt like a pause in life’s beautiful chaos—a moment just for them. Surrounded by loved ones, Alexis and Christian finally said “I do,” celebrating not only their marriage but the strong foundation they’ve built together. The day was filled with heartfelt emotion, joyful laughter, and tender wedding candids that perfectly captured their story through a photojournalistic photography approach.

Every detail was meaningful. As the sun set over the Gulf, the sky painted the perfect backdrop for their portraits, making wedding photography in Clearwater Beach feel like pure magic.

It was such an honor to photograph Alexis and Christian’s wedding day and witness the love that radiates from their family.
