Stacy and Steve: Bilmar Resort Wedding Photos

I photographed Stacy's and Steve's fun beach wedding at the beautiful Bilmar Beach Resort in Treasure Island, Florida. When I first showed up, Stacy asked me, "Do you remember me?" I couldn't say that I did. Apparently, she grew up across the street from my grandmother's old house, and we played together when we were little. I thought that was pretty cool that she even remembered that!

Emily's Senior Portraits

We took Emily's senior portraits around one of my favorite locations in the entire Tampa Bay area: downtown St. Petersburg.

Mackenzie & Jeremy

I actually met Mackenzie and Jeremy on a cruise and have kept in touch since then and became really great friends. I flew up to South Carolina to photograph their wedding at the Pawleys Island Plantation. It wasn't just a wedding day but a whole wedding week. It was one of the most fun weddings I have ever been to!

Cara & Matthew

Cara and Matthew were high school sweethearts who lost touch and found their way back to each other. I thought it was a very sweet story. They were definitely fools for each other. Here are a few photos from their April Fools Day wedding.

Amy and I had our photo shoot in the parking garage of our friend Shanna's apartment. I thought it was fairly unique, and we got some cool shots.

Nicole & Austin: Maternity

Nicole and Austin are one of my favorite couples ever. They are so cute together, and I know that they will make wonderful parents to their little girl, Avary. Here are a few shots from the maternity shoot we did before she was born.

Sara & Alex: Married

Their engagement photos were on the beach, so it only makes sense that Sara and Alex's wedding took place on the beach. They got married at the beautiful Bilmar Resort on Treasure Island.

Sara & Alex: Engaged

Sara and I were friends when we were little girls, and now she's got a little one of her own. When she and Alex got engaged, she said that she was "obsessed" with the beach and wanted to take her engagement photos there. After all, their wedding was going to be on the beach, too.

Jacque & Dwayne: Married

Jacque and Dwayne had an intimate wedding with just the two of them, so we took it to the studio for their wedding photos. The pure joy in Dwayne's face as he threw the rose petals in the air is the reason I love being a photographer.
