Brittni + Jeremy Step Into The Limelight | The Boatyard Waterfront Bar and Grill | Sarasota, FL

We recently had the honor of photographing Brittni + Jeremy’s big day. Their journey began with a serendipitous introduction facilitated by a mutual friend eight years ago. From that moment, their connection grew through exchanged texts and heartfelt conversations, eventually leading up to a simple, yet profound proposal on the familiar sidewalk outside their home.

What resonates most about Brittni and Jeremy is their shared joy of the pleasures + adventures of life: travel, exploring national parks, diving into the depths of the ocean, trying out craft breweries, and more.

The wedding day: a sun-kissed celebration on the shores of Siesta Key, a place woven into their childhood memories and adult adventures. For Brittni and Jeremy, the beach isn't just a picturesque backdrop; it's a sanctuary where they hold many fond memories.

Their wedding style reflected their gentle personalities and their shared affinity for the coastal ambiance—casual, breezy, and infused with bursts of greenery. From the sandy aisle to the swaying palms, every detail just as classy and as timeless as their love!

Amidst the festivities, Brittni and Jeremy run to each other for comfort and celebration. Many times throughout the night we’d see them pulling each other in for a long hug or a sweet kiss. Their love is apparent.

For Brittni and Jeremy though, their wedding isn't just a celebration of love; it's a testament to the beauty of authenticity and the boundless joy found in the company of kindred spirits. As photographers, we feel privileged to capture the joy of their love.

In three words or less, Brittni and Jeremy wanted for their wedding and guests to feel: happy, relaxed and fun. And in their union, may they find these sentiments echoed a thousandfold, as their love story continues to unfold.

In the digital age of swipes and clicks, Nikki and Blake found each other in an unexpected virtual encounter on Facebook Dating. What began as a simple connection evolved into a deep bond fueled by laughter, mutual support, and a shared love for the simple things in life.

Their love story took an unforgettable turn during a weekend getaway to Gainesville, FL. After a night out at a piano bar, Blake seized the moment at their Airbnb, dropping to one knee with a heartfelt proposal. Of course Nikki said yes!

Whether lounging on the beach, savoring meals at new restaurants, or indulging in marathon TV sessions, their relationship is a testament to the joy found in shared experiences and mutual admiration.

Their wedding day embodies the essence of their unique journey—a harmonious blend of Nikki's dream of a beachfront ceremony and Blake's vision of a formal wedding. Against the backdrop of sun-kissed shores and surrounded by loved ones who have journeyed from near and far, they'll exchange vows that symbolize their shared commitment to a lifetime of adventures together.

Beyond the meticulously planned details and carefully chosen attire, the true beauty of their wedding lies in the genuine connection they share and the love that radiates from every moment. As they stand hand in hand, ready to embark on this new chapter, Nikki and Blake's wedding day isn't just a celebration—it's a testament to the depth of their bond and the extraordinary journey they've started together. With hearts full of love and a future brimming with possibility, they move into forever, united in a love that's as unique as their story.

Amanda + Andre Step Into The Limelight | Downtown Tampa, FL

I have the pleasure of witnessing love stories come to life against the backdrop of beautiful locations. Recently, I had the honor of photographing Amanda and Andre's engagement session at the iconic Armature Works in Tampa, Florida.

From the moment Amanda and Andre stepped into the frame, their chemistry was palpable. With the stunning Tampa skyline as our canvas, we embarked on a journey to capture the essence of their love against the urban landscape.

One of the most memorable moments of the shoot was when Amanda and Andre brought out champagne glasses as a prop. As the sunlight danced off the bubbles and the Tampa skyline painted a breathtaking backdrop, it was as if time stood still, allowing us to freeze this perfect moment of celebration and love.

Throughout the session, Amanda and Andre's connection radiated in every frame. From stolen kisses to tender embraces, each shot encapsulated the depth of their affection and the promise of a lifetime together.

As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm glow over the city, I couldn't help but feel grateful to be a witness to such a magical moment. It's sessions like these that remind me why I fell in love with photography – to capture the raw, unfiltered beauty of love in all its forms.
