Emma and Christopher’s engagement session at the University of Tampa was the perfect
blend of romance, architecture, and personality. made even more memorable by the
presence of their fur baby trotting happily alongside them.

Set against the iconic backdrop of the University of Tampa, this engagement session
captured not only the love between Emma and Christopher, but also the life they’re
building together. From the moment they arrived on campus, it was clear that this session
would be relaxed and full of joy.

These two are tying the knot in 2027 at the stunning Hyatt Regency Clearwater Beach and we couldn’t be more excited to capture it!!

There’s something truly magical about photographing a couple where their story began. For Diedre and Michael, the University of Tampa isn’t just a beautiful location — it’s where their love story first took root. Capturing their engagement session on these historic grounds felt like bringing their journey full circle.

As we wandered through the university’s timeless architecture and sunlit pathways, it was easy to see how naturally these two connect. Their laughter was effortless, their smiles genuine, and every glance between them radiated warmth and love. The entire session felt relaxed and joyful — like spending the afternoon with old friends.

What I loved most about photographing Diedre and Michael was how comfortable they were in front of the camera. Every moment unfolded organically, allowing me to capture authentic, photojournalistic-style candids that truly reflect who they are as a couple.

They’ll be tying the knot in March of 2027 at The Florida Aquarium — a venue that promises to be just as vibrant and full of life as their love story. If their engagement session is any indication, their wedding day will be nothing short of stunning!

Congratulations, Diedre and Michael — it was such a joy getting to know you both and capturing this special chapter of your story.

Elizabeth + Mathieu Step Into The Limelight | University of Tampa + The Florida Aquarium | Tampa, FL

Tinder + Honesty + Cats = Elizabeth & Mathieu

Are you wondering how it all ads up?

Elizabeth & Matthew are a result of modern love, they met on Tinder in 2016. They can both truthfully say, they can be themselves around each other and they both are amazed on how they are still together! They are so silly together and they really do enjoy being around each other. They both share a LOVE for cats!

They love traveling together, trying new restaurants and cuisines and going to the movies.

Oh and did I mention, Mathieu is french? Yes! And they both live in Paris! How amazing is that?

Their wedding was so charming, modern yet vintage with a touch of class. We LOVED Elizabeth’s dramatic wedding gown, the additional lace detailed cape was absolutely everything! And then, for the ceremony Elizabeth added the most gorgeous cathedral veil… we were in awe of the gorgeousness!

Their unique style led them to select The Florida Aquarium as their ceremony + reception venue. It was pure perfection! They danced the night away with the fishes and all was well with the world.

Elizabeth & Mathieu we wish you both all the JOYS life can bring. You deserve LOVE and everything NICE.
