Kaitlyn and John: Engagement Photos

I took Kaitlyn and John's engagement photos at the Florida Botanical Gardens in Largo, next to Heritage Village. We may have had to wake up early, but it was well worth it because the lightning that day was absolutely breathtaking.

Sarah's Valentine Portrait Session

My sister got the blond curly hair and blue eyes. I got the camera. We had gone shopping together and picked out this dress for her Valentine's Day dance at school. Then I helped with her makeup, and she did her own hair. We drove over to one of my favorite spots, the Renaissance Vinoy Resort and Golf Club in downtown St. Petersburg, Florida so that she could be a model for a day and show off her new dress.

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.
 

Lara and Tim: Wedding Photos

Lara and Tim got married in a sunset ceremony at the Sailport Resort in Tampa on Rocky Point on a very lucky day, 11/11/11. Congratulations and best of luck to you two!

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

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.

Jonathon & Candice: Married

Jonathon and Candice had a small, beautiful wedding in Ybor and a reception at Roy's Hawaiian Fusion restaurant.

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.

Trey

A man. A horse. And a camera. Trey is an aspiring male model who was looking to have some portraits taken. Our mutual friend Becky coordinated the shoot with her horse Frost. This location is fantastic, and I loved taking the cowboy-themed photos.
