Shannon + Ryan Step Into The Limelight | Bellwether Beach Resort | St. Pete Beach, FL

Shannon and Ryan were a dream to photograph. These two kept smiles on their faces throughout the entire day in the face of rain and wind. No matter how hard the weather tried to bring them down, they kept glowing and enjoying each other’s company along with their family and friends at the beautiful St. John Vianney Catholic Church as well as the stunning Bellwether Beach Resort. Their vows to each other, capped off by Ryan’s introduction speech at the reception spoke to the love they hold for one another and how it is stronger than any challenges they may face. Although the rain kept us indoors, they are stunning subjects to photograph and that is evident in all the portraits we were able to take around the church and reception venue throughout the night. Their first dance was one to remember as they struck a beautiful dip that wowed the entire audience, and it translated into one of the most active dance floors in recent memory for me. This couple knows how to have fun and look amazing while doing so and I am so happy I was able to be a part of their special day.

Diane + Cruise Step Into The Limelight | The Ringling + Waterlefe Golf & River Club | Sarasota, FL

What a beautiful day for the Eastman’s! We started at the incredible Ringling Museum for a ceremony in the garden. It was the perfect location since Diane is an artist! Her and Cruise shared the sweetest words once they met under their floral arch. It was so beautiful to witness their love for each other and their excitement to exchange their vows. Cruise could not take his eyes off of Diane! We then headed to cocktail hour and reception at the Waterlefe Golf & River Club.  The view was amazing! We were able to see the incredible sunset while the couples loved ones toasted to them. Diane and Cruise had such a nicely choreographed first dance, and they further surprised their guests with Mother/Son and Daughter/Father-In-Law choreographed dances too! After dinner Jonathan Cortez with Ace in the Hole Entertainment got the party started with live music, and everyone danced the night away. The flower girls, the groom’s sweet nieces, were the absolute cutest and did not leave the dance floor all night. The light up LED sticks made the party even better! When guests needed a break, they headed over to the DELICIOUS French fry bar.  The Eastman’s sure know how to part! Congrats to the newlyweds 💍

Crystal + Tommy Step Into The Limelight | Indigo Harvest Events | INVERNESS, FLORIDA

Crystal and Tommy met at bike fest in Leesburg, FL in April of 2018.  Together, they enjoy riding the Harley together. They enjoy just every free minute they get to spend with each other.

Crystal was told to approve a family photo in the middle of Tommy’s birthday party and when she looked at it, she saw people holding huge signs up across the back that said " Will you marry me?” In Crystal’s own words… “He loves all of me LOL I love all of him too, literally, BUT especially his smile and contagious laugh.”

It has been one heck of a journey to have this day and they are SO ready to be forever!!!!

The big thing that caught Crystal’s eye at the Indigo Harvest Events was the chandeliers hanging from the oak tree! This became the perfect spot for them to say “I DO.” The overall theme was BOHO and Crystal did DIY beautiful centerpieces! The flower girl and ring bearer were adorable and a highlight of the day! It was just a HAPPY day all around! ☺️

Caitlin + Peter Step Into The Limelight | Christ the King Catholic Church + The Tampa Club | Tampa, FL

A modern day love story, Caitlin and Peter met by swiping right on Hinge. Funny enough, they both “swiped right” on the right person because here we are three days later! On their first date, they didn’t order for three hours because they could not stop talking to each other.

On 6/27/2020, Peter and Caitlin went to a party hosted by Peter’s mom. They went out to the dock to watch sunset. Peter subtly mentioned that he wanted to marry her to which Caitlin reminded him that he had to get her father’s permission. Peter got down on one knee and said “I already did”. The party was actually a secret engagement party!

Caitlin and Peter love binging TV shows, going to trivia nights and just having fun with each other, even if they come from opposing colleges (FSU & UF).

Caitlin and Peter’s wedding day was filled with love and laughter. Tara and I both said that you could literally feel the love coming from everyone involved. From the Priest singing a custom theme song during the ceremony to Caitlin's dad giving one of the best Father of the Bride’s speeches we have ever heard, it was hard to not find a smile on everyone’s face. Congrats to the Bradys!

Calla + David Step Into The Limelight | Paradise Spring | Lithia, FL

Calla and Dave’s wedding day was truly one for the books!! They got engaged here in Sarasota so it was only fitting they came back to Florida for their wedding. Even though the day began worrying about the Florida rain, the weather couldn’t have been more perfect. It was a nice cool afternoon for their beautiful garden wedding.  Both the bride and groom were a little nervous but once they saw each other their faces absolutely lit up. They exchanged their vows surrounded by their closest friends and family, followed by an intimate reception.  They danced the night away, and even ended with a dip in the pool! Here’s to the new Mr. and Mrs. Humphrey: wishing you guys a lifetime full of love and laughter.
