CAROLINE AND JIMMY FEATURED IN THE LIMELIGHT |ANONA METHODIST CHURCH AND HYATT REGENCY CLEARWATER BEACH |CLEARWATER BEACH , FL

July 31, 2017

And to think it all started with a blind date and it went on to Christmas Cookies, Ice Skating and cherished conversations which lead to a proposal in front of their Kindergarten Sunday School Class and their loved ones.

This sweet couple said their vows at the small chapel adjacent to Anona Methodist Church in Clearwater Beach surrounded by love and honor. The love they have for each other is undeniable, their wedding day was a dream and my heart is still overjoyed. From the moment I spoke to Caroline on the phone, I could tell she was kind and genuine and when I got to meet her in person she was beaming with love and expectation. The anticipation was emotional and cherished. Once at the chapel, it was like it all made sense, these two were completely made for each other. Each word spoken, each charming look, each embrace consumed with gratitude. I would also like to take this time to thank Jimmy for serving our great country in the United States Navy as a Naval Officer, thank you for your daily sacrifice. We honor you today and always.

My prayer for Caroline and Jimmy is a life full of joy and an abundance of blessings.

We wish you both all the best for many, many years to come.

Kasey and Caz had a fun filled wedding day in Tampa, FL. Friends and family gathered at the Westin Harbour Island Hotel during this exciting time in Kasey and Cazs life, to help these two get ready to say their “I do’s” on their wedding day in a beautiful ceremony at Idlewild Baptist Church. Guests then made their way over the the Florida Aquarium for a lovely reception in the Aquariums new ballroom, the Mosaic Room. It was a musical night, with the bridesmaids and groomsmen each delivering their speeches in musical form. Guests danced their way into the night and we were so glad we were able to capture this beautiful wedding day. Congrats to the newlyweds!! :)

JESSICA AND JOSH FEATURED IN THE LIMELIGHT |SANDPEARL RESORT |CLEARWATER BEACH , FL

July 25, 2017

Jessica and Josh were married at the Sandpearl Resort in a beautiful destination beach ceremony and reception! The couple traveled down from Ohio with their closest family and friends to enjoy a long weekend getaway together to celebrate their marriage! After photographing the couple getting ready we began their wedding day with a sweet first look before their ceremony. Jessica and Josh were so happy to see each other and have a private moment alone prior to their big reveal to their guests on the Gulf Lawn for their ceremony. With toes in the sand the newlyweds exchanged vows and rings and celebrated their union with a sand ceremony. We were blessed with not one but two beautiful bride and groom sessions! We worked quickly after the ceremony with overcast skies and approaching rain but that made for a clear beach and some really beautiful portraits! After dinner we were able to go back out to the beach to see what kind of sunset the storm clouds would provide us and we were definitely not disappointed! We were treated to beautiful light and the storm created a spectacular sunset that turned the most vibrant shade of purple through the clouds. It was Florida’s beauty at it’s finest! Jessica and Josh were more than willing to risk a few rain drops for us to be able to capture these stunning portraits! The couple enjoyed an energetic and fun reception dancing the night away in the Harbor Ballroom! Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Keller! It was a pleasure to work with you both on your amazing wedding day!

I had the great opportunity to meet up with newly engaged couple, Hong and Kyle, on this Sunday evening at Tampa Riverwalk right before sunset. The overcast skies made such a beautiful light that gave the Tampa skyline in the background just the right, modern mood for this stylish and happy couple. Hong and Kyle will tie the knot this coming November. How exciting! Congratulations on your engagement!

July 25, 2017

Occasionally, we get a wedding that has such a classic and rich feel to it, you just want to dive right into it. This was one of them! With soft color schemes of pink, ivory and sage contrasting with the striking elegance and romance the Kapok provided wrapped so beautifully together. Now place one of the sweetest or the liveliest couples and you get one unforgettable night! Renee’s brother officiated the ceremony with guests surrounding them in a circular layout. There wasn’t a bad view in the house! The two brought in every emotion as they said their commitments to one another, and their guests were all drawn in by this charismatic couple! Even with it’s richness and grandeur, the wedding had the perfect mesh of party, joy and laughter! Everyone danced the night away after dinner and toasts including Renee and Ryan. It was a beautiful evening, a special day for these two starting their lives together as husband and wife but also for all loved ones involved in their day cheering and supporting them through it all!
