March 3, 2018Kayla + Ben’s Hometown Backyard WeddingFort Meade, Florida

I am very excited to bring this sneak peek to you all today, Kayla and Ben had a simple yet pretty vision for their wedding day. I could tell that everyone around us was like family – lots of love on this day. Kayla and Ben got married at the property of some of their closest friends. In the wedding party were two couples, Suzanne and Austin & Brittany and Jordan – the girls being sisters. The barn that the reception was held in was built by these two girls father and it is where they also held both of their weddings. Well as you can see by the photos all these girls look like sisters and so it was the natural choice for Kayla and Ben to be married in the same place as their best friends.

I don’t think we could have gotten better weather, the air was cool, the breeze was lite and the smell of sweet orange blossoms filled the air. They were married by Ben’s Father under neath a great big canopy of trees. It was the most beautiful of days – from the first look to the cake cutting not a moment went un-captured.

Here is what Kayla & Ben had to say when I asked them what they were most excited about for the wedding:

Kayla what are you most excited about for the wedding? For it to finally be here! I am excited to finally get to marry Ben and start our future! I am also excited to share the day with our friends and family.

Benjamin what are you most excited about for the wedding? I’m excited about getting to celebrate our wedding with so many friends and family. And getting to start a marriage that will last forever with Kayla.

From their first look to their sparkler exit, Megan and Nick’s wedding was a huge blessing as it was my last wedding of 2017. The weather was perfect and the day flowed beautifully – I loved all the details, especially down to all the Harry Potter references. Thank you to Jenna Adams to second shooting with me!

October 22, 2017Kacie + Steven Engagement SessionPhilippe Park, Safety Harbor, Florida

This is take two for these two, we tried a month ago to capture their engagement session but mother nature decided to storm on us and scared us off with some major lighting. So last night we went back to Philippe Park in Safety Harbor which is close to where they live to capture their engagement session. Kacie wanted photos by the water and fell in love with all the beautiful trees and backdrops. Steven brought along his red pick up truck and I LOVE how those images turned out, I had so much fun with them and I can’t wait for their wedding in April!

October 14, 2017Elizabeth + ShawnSorosis Building, Lakeland, Florida

I don’t even know where to begin to describe how perfect this day was, we had great weather, a fun wedding party and pretty details. Elizabeth and Shawn got married at the Sorosis Building this past Saturday and the day could not have gone any smoother! These are the days that make me forget that this is my job, I truly enjoyed being with this group and capturing all the special moments. We shared a lot of laughs and sweet moments, there was so much love in the air!

Enjoy the sneak peek!!

September 17, 2017Kathy + Carlos Engagement SessionLake Mirror, Lakeland, Floirda

I am so excited to share this sneak peek of Kathy and Carlos’s engagement session, we went for a simple stroll around Lake Mirror. We came up with the idea for this session when we first met each other at Lakeland Brewing Company to chat about their wedding day, the sun was setting over the lake and it was just breath taking. I can’t wait for their wedding this December at the Sorosis building!

PS. Can we talk about that pant suit she’s wearing?

I am so excited to share this sneak peek of this simple ceremony that happened Thursday evening – we may have gotten a “little” rain but it was worth waiting out because we got one stunning sunset and even a rain bow!

Amanda + Denny

April 29th, 2017

Venue: Sorosis Building, Lakeland, Florida

I love how things work themselves out, it was back in October that I was doing some work with United Way when I met one of Amanda’s bridesmaids, Estefania. She and I got to talking about what we did for a living and when she heard I was a photographer, she said “Oh I must tell my friend Amanda about you!” Site unseen by Estefania a few days later I got contact by Amanda – we set up a meeting for her and I to meet and when I asked who her fiance was – low and behold it was someone I’ve known since elementary school!

We felt as though it was all meant to happen this way and it made it that much more meaningful to capture their wedding day!
