A Chic & Romantic Engagement Session on the Water with Nicole & Ryan

As a photographer, there are sessions that feel effortless—the kind where the energy is calm, the connection is genuine, and everything just flows. Nicole & Ryan’s engagement session was exactly that.

Nicole and Ryan live in Downtown Tampa, so choosing a session that reflected their lifestyle and vibe was important to them. When they suggested Tampa Water Limo | Dulcinea, I knew instantly it was so them. Chic, romantic, relaxed, and a little bit elevated… just like their love story!

From the moment we stepped aboard, the tone was set. The gentle movement of the water, the city skyline in the distance, and the quiet intimacy of being out on the water created the perfect atmosphere. This engagement session felt less like a photoshoot and more like a beautiful experience we all got to share together.

What I loved most was how natural everything felt. We laughed, talked, and truly got to know each other along the way. Nicole & Ryan were completely at ease as they snuggled close, sharing quiet moments, and letting their connection shine without forcing anything. Those are always my favorite sessions; you know, the ones that feel romantic, stylish, and real.

Their story is just as modern and sweet as they are. Nicole and Ryan met at the gym, after exchanging a few Instagram DM’s (proof that love really does find you in the most unexpected places!). That effortless, contemporary beginning fits them perfectly… and now here they are, planning their forever!

And speaking of forever, these two will be tying the knot in 2027 at the Hyatt Clearwater, and I already know their wedding day is going to be stunning. If their engagement session was any indication, their celebration will be filled with elegance, laughter, and so much love.

To Nicole & Ryan: thank you for trusting me to document this chapter of your story. Spending the day on the water with you was truly a joy, and I cannot wait to continue capturing your journey together.

If you’re dreaming of an engagement session in Tampa that feels personal, romantic, and uniquely you, I’d love to help bring that vision to life.

Lorraine + Russell Step Into The Limelight | Ybor City | Tampa, FL

An Evening in Ybor City: Lorraine & Russell

There are love stories that feel like they were written in the warm glow of golden light, and Lorraine and Russell’s is one of them. On a beautiful evening in Ybor City, we celebrated not just their engagement, but also a very special occasion, Lorraine’s birthday.

Ybor has a charm of its own. The cobblestone streets, the colorful facades, and the echoes of history make it the perfect stage for romance. As we wandered through its lively corners, Lorraine and Russell brought their own kind of magic. They laughed easily, shared quiet looks that said everything words could not, and held each other in a way that reminded me why love stories are worth capturing.

What made the evening even more unforgettable was the joy that radiated from Lorraine. Celebrating her birthday alongside the man who makes her heart feel at home gave the session an extra sparkle. Russell’s gentle way of looking at her made it clear: he wasn’t just celebrating her birthday, he was celebrating her.

As the sun softened into dusk, Ybor’s lights began to twinkle, wrapping the streets in romance. It felt as if the city itself was raising a glass to Lorraine and Russell two people whose love lights up every space they step into.

This session wasn’t just about photos. It was about marking a moment in time: a birthday filled with love, laughter, and the promise of forever. Lorraine and Russell, thank you for letting me be part of this chapter. Here’s to the many more birthdays you’ll share together, side by side, heart to heart.
