Samantha + James Step Into The Limelight | Mahaffey Theater + St. Pete Yacht Club | St. Petersburg, FL

 

Samantha and James met in 2010 at Sea Scouts (James was in 8th grade and Samantha was in 9th grade). They were just friends and raced sailboats competitively for several years. In 2013 the two of them ran a summer sailing camp together and became very close friends. September 13, 2013 they went on our first date at the Cheesecake Factory and to watch a movie.  Little did they know that would blossom into a beautiful relationship.

Now, they have been together for several years. The couple has two dogs and purchased a home together. 

These two are so much fun to be around. It was a beautiful day in downtown St. Pete, with boats all about and sunshine to be had! They were wed in the beautiful Mahaffey Theater and then moved on to party at the St. Pete Yacht Club surrounded by friends and family. We had a wonderful session out on the dock with a beautiful sunset falling behind the scenic downtown skyline. 

Then we wrapped up the evening with a night session by the string lights. These two were made for each other, and I think it shows in this gallery.
