Steven McCarthy | LEAD Wedding Photographer

I was born in Los Angeles, California, and was raised locally here in Tampa, Florida. I am outgoing, friendly, and a big adventurer. Additionally, I am a big foodie, who is willing to travel to new places to learn about different cultures and try out different types of foods. I have been to 10 different states so far and would love to visit each one because I believe every state has a unique and beautiful personality.

When it is rainy, I love to stay in and enjoy the weather with a movie or a good book. If I were to recommend a book, I would suggest Operation Hail Mary by Andy Weir. My favorite movie to recommend is Interstellar! With any other free time I have, you can find me at the beach, going on dates with my significant other, or just simply playing video games.

My love for photography began in high school while taking photos for the school yearbook and newspaper. Since then, my love for photography has grown into the passion that it is now! I love to capture special moments that tell a story. My goal is to reflect my personality into my work so that every picture I take is a personal representation of my passion.

Outside of the Limelight, I am a student at Keiser University majoring in Diagnostic Medical Sonography. My specialty interests include cardiac and vascular sonography.  I like to think myself as creative and tech savvy, and always up for an artistic problem-solving challenge.

I strive to depict every special moment so that you can reflect on these beautiful moments with a smile! As a trained wedding photographer, I have learned that no matter who you are, you can find love anywhere and a desire for anything.I enjoy being around people and having an open, curious mind. When you see my work, I hope you feel the moment, the expression, love and over-all passion.

It has always been a desire of mine to provide people with outstanding, emotionally captivating work along with great care and service. The feeling of being taken care of, being in the right hands and providing work that truly has a great value to every client is my ultimate motivation that pushes me every day in this artistically expressive field.
