KERI AND MATTHEW STEP INTO THE LIMELIGHT | DOWNTOWN TAMPA | TAMPA, FL

Lead Photographer | Christi Curtis

Keri and Matthew are such a joy to be around, they both light up for each other and their love shines bright.  They were so great to photograph on their engagement session.  We had so much fun involving Matthew’s beautiful and sharp car under the Tampa sign in downtown then we raced to the Courtney Campbell causeway to capture some beautiful sunset shots by the water. 

I am so excited about their upcoming wedding at the Dali Museum later this month where they will say their vows in front of family and friends before having a beautiful reception to celebrate!!

Congratulations Keri and Matthew!!

VICTORIA AND BRONSON FEATURED IN THE LIMELIGHT | SACRED HEART CATHOLIC CHURCH AND THE HILTON TAMPA DOWNTOWN | TAMPA, FL

Victoria and Bronson were married in a beautiful ceremony at Sacred Heart Catholic Church and a modern and elegant reception at the Hilton Tampa Downtown!  It was such a pleasure working with this wonderful couple on their very special day!  We began the day getting ready at the Hilton and the couple shared a private first look in the beautiful sky walk prior to heading to the church to say their vows in a traditional Catholic wedding ceremony.  Sacred Heart is such a stunning church so I was thrilled that we were able to photograph a few portraits of the happy couple in the daylight prior to their beautiful evening wedding ceremony.  I was equally excited to capture a few more great night time shots inside and just outside the church and a few with the city lights in the background prior to heading to their reception!  The ballroom at the Hilton was decorated so beautifully with gorgeous purple up-lighting and chandeliers as well as many stunning cranberry and gold floral arrangements!  The happy couple danced the night away with their family and friends in a fun and entertaining reception!  The love this couple shares is so sweet and it was wonderful to capture.  They have known each other since high school and love their hometown of Tampa so their choice of venues was perfect!  They were so excited to have an unforgettable night for all to remember for years to come!   Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Del Rosal!

CHRISTINA AND JOE FEATURED IN THE LIMELIGHT | ST. BRENDAN'S CATHOLIC CHURCH AND THE HOLIDAY INN | CLEARWATER BEACH, FL

Christina and Joe had a spectacular wedding this fine October day at Clearwater Beach. I had the privilege of photographing their engagement shoot early this year and I knew they were one of the most outgoing and funniest couples to be around. This same energy that I picked up during their engagement session translated on to this day and it was just perfect!

Joe and Christina met at the police academy in Dade City about 5 years ago. Christina fell in love with Joe’s sense of humor and just had such a great time when he was around. Joe one day, acknowledging that she was the one for him, decided to propose one day with a fake parking ticket while at Clearwater Beach. She said yes immediately and ever since, their love has grown. They enjoy boating together, they go on shooting ranges for fun and of course love to go to the beach to take the day off and relax.

On their wedding day, they wanted to incorporate as much of them as possible. From a donut bar, to beach themed arrangements and of course a fun sense of humor hidden within their details. They made their wedding their own in such a great way for everyone to enjoy. Family and friends joined them from near and far and the same fun energy translated on to them as well. It was such a pleasure being around these two for the day - congratulations to the lovely newlyweds!!!
