Julia + Tom :: Beach Engagement Session
Would you believe me if I said there are plenty more where these came from? In an effort to not overwhelm, I only chose a few favorites, but let me assure you... This session was incredible! I'm pretty sure that if you add Gigi's cupcakes and "champagne" to anything, it's an almost guaranteed recipe for success. I will be eagerly awaiting their wedding next May at the Vinoy! In the mean time, enjoy this preview!

Anne + Michael :: Downtown St. Pete Engagement Session
Anne and Michael's December wedding at the Don Cesar is just months away, but I simply cannot wait to photograph these two again. They made it seem effortless behind the camera, and Anne has so much personality. She may be the only bride that has ever asked me to jump in to an iPhone selfie with her! I must admit, I felt honored... And thinking about it now, it would not be a bad trend to start with future engagement sessions! I know I'll have a field day when they are surrounded by friends and family at such a beautiful venue.
Christa + Matt :: St. Pete Engagement Session
I truly believe the moments captured in this engagement session would've happened without any direction at all. Christa and Matt are so laid back and natural together, and Matt is a seriously awesome musician... I almost wanted to stop shooting for awhile just to hear him play. They have both been so fun and awesome to work with so far, so I know there's no question that I'll love their wedding at one of my absolute favorite Tampa Venues, The Oxford Exchange. November can't come soon enough!

Carissa + Michael :: Vinoy Wedding Photography
Not many can say they are just as good in front of the camera as they are behind the camera, but that is certainly true for Carissa. If you're one of my clients, you might recognize her as my right hand at weddings, but she's also my right hand behind the scenes. The nice packaging... I wish I could take credit for that. So thank you Carissa for making me look good in so many different ways, and thank you for allowing me the opportunity to shoot entirely in film. I could not be happier that you found such an amazing husband. It is an absolute honor that you would choose me to shoot your wedding after so many hours of shooting and working together. I loved meeting your families and I'm excited to see what the future holds in store for you.Bridal Gown Boutique :: Malindy EleneCeremony + Reception Venue :: Renaissance Vinoy
Alison + Drew :: Engagement Shoot
Alison and Drew make it look effortless... In fact, at one point I do recall Drew saying "man, models have the easiest job ever". As it turns out, their really cute dog Charley felt the same way about modeling. He is one of the easiest dogs I've ever worked with, and does he not look just like the dog from Cesar Canine Cuisine? The gorgeous weather, their great outfits, and their obvious love for each other all worked together to produce one pretty long blog post... And I was selective!
