A Romantic Celebration of Love and Sacrament in Tampa, Florida

As the lead photographer for Limelight Photography, I had the joy of capturing this beautiful couple’s wedding day in Tampa, Florida. Their love story is one of enduring devotion, having been together for 14 years and raising two wonderful children, Isabella and Bryan. Instead of a traditional proposal, he surprised her with a memorable trip to Tiffany & Co., where he chose her engagement ring – a classic gesture that speaks volumes about the timeless tenderness in their relationship.

The day began at St. Mark the Evangelist Catholic Church, where they exchanged vows in a deeply reverent ceremony, marking the sacrament as the heart of their wedding day. It was incredibly moving to capture the love they shared with their children close by, experiencing this monumental day together as a family. These intimate, candid moments were the highlights of the day, embodying the essence of photojournalistic photography. Their vows, filled with love and sincerity, are memories they’ll cherish forever.

The celebration continued at the Grand Hyatt Tampa Bay, where their love for elegance and simplicity was echoed in every detail, from the decor to the intimate setting with their closest family members. With heartfelt toasts and a first dance that warmed everyone’s hearts, they celebrated as a family, honoring their 14 years of love and dedication. The couple’s passion for travel, fine dining, and exploring life together shone through as they enjoyed every moment.

Capturing weddings like this, where love, family, and faith intertwine so beautifully, is one of the greatest privileges of wedding photography in Tampa, Florida.
