LISA AND MICHAEL FEATURED IN THE LIMELIGHT | BARRINGTON HILL FARM | TAMPA, FL

Lisa and Michael were engaged at sunset on Davis Island with their sweet German Sheppard Drogo, so naturally Drogo had to be a part of their wedding… he did such a great job as ring bearer. 

Lisa and Michael’s wedding day was so full of love and beauty, with so many amazing details and a fabulous venue.  Nestled in beautiful Dade City, Barrington Hill Farm has so many unique characteristics, making for perfect backdrop for a rustic yet elegant wedding with rolling hills, horses, a barn and so much more. In the barn, we were greeted by sweet horses… they watched on as we hung the dress and did details shots, probably the first time I had a conversation with a horse while photographing a wedding dress!!

Lisa walked down the front porch steps to greet her groom during the first look… the look on Michael’s face as he turned to see his bride was priceless, even Drogo was excited and ran in to greet them shortly after. The ceremony was set under beautiful huge oak trees, the weather was absolutely perfect while Michael and Lisa said their vows in front of all of their family and friends. The sun glowed bright behind the wedding party as we did portraits of the group together after the ceremony.  We were able to capture some amazing shots of the bride and groom as the sun was starting to set behind the trees.

The reception was so much fun, such great music and atmosphere!!  The details and lighting inside the venue provided the perfect ambiance for dinner and the outside dance floor provided a wonderful place to dance or just sit back and watch while having a drink, enjoying the Coldstone ice cream or eating a slice of pizza from the pizza bar later on in the night.

Congratulations Lisa and Michael… we are so happy to have been able to capture your amazing wedding day!

WENDY AND FRED FEATURED IN THE LIMELIGHT | SHERATON RIVERWALK | TAMPA, FL

What can one person say about two incredible human beings that possess such kindness and patience while being so happy and thankful in a moment?...Well, let’s just rewind this story to 2013 to the time when Wendy and Fred met. Fred was set for work as a paramedic that day when this girl entered in as a ride along with a nice smile and beauty inside to out that he just had to know. Chemistry was there and something greater set before them. They had already a common bond with helping others and a great sense of humor. Wendy and Fred both looked out for others and had such a stronghold to commit to that in their careers and personal life. This type of bond was something that was greater than themselves. And so it was, at Curtis Hixon Park three years later he proposed. A beautiful memory for the two with purpose. Over the years, they found each other in a way that a relationship should be selflessness, joy, contentment, growth and love for one another and others. On March 25th 2017 they were married only blocks away where Fred first proposed. With their family and friends by their side they stated their commitments to one another. The day unfolded beautifully and they took no time to start the celebration! With classic colors of blush and ivory to modern day feels of their hotel and the new city walk their day provided a gusto of grandeur that fit who they were and what they loved. We were honored to be a part of their day! Wendy and Fred, you have such a kindness about you that trickled around effortlessly between your family and friends, we LOVED documenting that! It was a joy to experience such a marriage! Here are some favorites of this day!

LAUREN AND MICHAEL FEATURED IN THE LIMELIGHT |SOUTH SEAS ISLAND RESORT | CAPTIVA, FL

Lauren and Michael are married and they couldn’t be any happier! Light blue waters and warm sands were beneath our feet during a clear skied ceremony at South Seas Island Resort in Captiva FL. Their very intimate wedding was very relaxed yet beautiful and close family made it even more special. Once the sun set, it was time to celebrate the night away at one of the resort’s lawns which also had the endless seascape in the background. Congrats to the newlyweds, I wish you both the best!

ALEXANDRA + DENNIS FEATURED IN THE LIMELIGHT | THE DON CESAR | ST. PETERSBURG, FL

Alexandra and Dennis met at his work. She had to deliver something and he had to get to know her. That he did! He asked her out and she said yes to the date. They grew to know one another and each other's families. They laughed together, loved together, and fish together :).  One beautiful day while his family was around at Disney, Dennis asked Alex to marry him and again she said yes. It was like magic in a magical place. A little over a year later they said 'I do' at the location Alexandra once told her mom while visiting 'I want to be married here'. It was a lovely day...the sun settled into a mist of light clouds as they said their vows to one another. The setting was gorgeous, laughter filled the air, and both of them held such patience but also so were calm and collective during the whole process that I was amazed! At one point, the sun pelted down as we were taking photos and it was HOT! They embraced it with class and a bit of humor in between.  I loved watching their interactions as though amongst a bunch of beach goers, it was just them there. The wedding itself had a classic flare with a beachy implement, one not taking away from the other.  Congratulations to Alexandra and Dennis! Here are a few of our favorites captured on their wedding day!
