This moment right here? It’s everything.

You just said your vows, sealed it with a kiss, and now you’re walking back down the aisle as married freaking people. Like, how do you even put that kind of joy into words? (Spoiler: you don’t. You just yell it out like these two did!)

This is the part where all the planning, decision-making, and late-night “what if we did this instead?” convos come full circle. It’s the first moment you get to soak in the fact that you just did THE thing—and the happiness is absolutely off the charts!

So, when your turn comes? Forget what you think it’s “supposed” to look like. Laugh, shout, fist pump—let it out, babe. This is your moment—and I’m here to make sure it feels just as electric as it looks.

Oh, and if you’re planning a wedding in Florida (or anywhere else your heart leads you - Im a dual citizen!), I’d love to tag along and capture all the joyful chaos! I’m a Florida-based destination wedding photographer who’s all about those candid, personality-filled moments that make your day feel so you

✨ POV: You throw a black tie wedding at a private estate, and it’s the kind of night people will be talking about for years!

From grand entrances to champagne toasts under the stars, a private estate bring an unmatched level of elegant to your one-of-a-kind celebration. As a Tampa, Florida wedding photographer who’s traveled everywhere from NYC and New England to photograph at Gilded Age mansions to the fairytale settings of a castle in Scotland, I’ve had the chance to photograph some truly unforgettable private estate weddings—and let me tell you, there’s nothing quite like them!

Here’s how to make yours unforgettable:

• Al Fresco or Tented? Whether you’re dining under twinkling lights in Florida’s warm breeze or celebrating in a chic tent overlooking rolling hills in Italy, the setting is everything.

• Design That Makes An Impact: Statement florals, romantic candlelight for days, and tablescapes that make your guests pause to admire it before sitting down—private estates are all about the little things that bring it all together.

•Style That Matches The Vibe: A black tie dress code is your moment to go all out! Whether it’s an embellished gown, a dramatic train, or a classic tux, make it something that feels iconic and timeless. Encourage your guests to go all out too, like they’re attending the red carpet.

• The Estate Advantage: From Tampa estates to historic venues in New England and villas in Italy, private estates give you the freedom to personalize every detail—your vision, your way!

Swipe for inspo that’ll have you ready to plan the black-tie celebration of your dreams!

Let’s make one thing clear: perfection is overrated. Your wedding photos should look like you—fun, silly, full of life, and maybe even a little chaotic (in the best way). Forget “perfect poses”—bring big energy, real laughs, and all the middle fingers. ✨ Stop overthinking and just have fun!!

So here’s your reminder to take a deep breath, let loose, and trust that the best moments happen when you’re too busy being happy & having fun to notice the camera.

Which one feels the most “you”?

Alright, Christmas might be over but I’m what I’m NOT over is my trip with my best friend to NYC - it was her first time EVER, and as a native New Yorker, I couldn’t let that slide for much longer (I’ve been begging her since 2017 to go). She had a blast and loved all the Christmas decor 🎄

Her list of must sees wasn’t elaborate, just the basic NYC Christmas icons, a Broadway show and to sit in a decked out bar drinking holiday drinks (and Lilian’s Victorian and Oscar Wilde DELIVERED)

I made us a NY playlist sprinkled with Christmas music that we would listen to on the subway and walking around and my one thing I really wanted her to do was Top of the Rock which I made for 8:20am our first day…I didn’t realize her flight was coming in at 6am that same day…and we were staying in fricken Newark NJ 🤦🏼‍♀️ we were only 30 mins late though and still got to go up haha

✨ Jillian & Joey’s Harry Potter wedding was straight-up magic—like, floating candles, glitter everywhere, and the Mirror of Erised-level magic. Their day felt like walking right into the wizarding world, and honestly, I’m still spellbound (haha that one was for you, ) 🪄✨

Jillian rocked a light gray, sparkly wedding dress with glitter in her hair that legit shimmered like a spell. And Jillian really thought of it all - while getting ready, the bridesmaids flipped through the Quibbler, and the groomsmen with the Daily Prophet in hand.

They tied the knot in front of the Mirror of Erised, with their officiant holding The Sorcerer’s Stone paperback like it was no big deal. Oh, and they actually did an Unbreakable Vow with a wand. Guests even showed up in magical-themed outfits, bringing such a fun, immersive energy to the whole day.

But we need to talk about the reception because, wow. Floating candles? Check. Creepy, moody florals? Check. (“I asked for weird s**t in the flowers,” Jillian casually told me—queen energy). The entire space felt like you were dining in the Great Hall, and every detail was just so them. It’s so much fun to see couples go all in on a theme, especially when it’s done in such a personal and creative way!!

I live for weddings like this. When couples go all in on a theme and make it so personal, it’s an absolute blast to capture. Based in Florida but ready to travel, we’re here to photograph whatever makes your wedding you—whether it’s Hogwarts-inspired or a chic garden celebration. Let’s make some magic happen!

Let’s talk about bold, fun weddings for a sec—because that’s exactly what Taylor and Dave’s day was all about! Bright lime green details, citrusy vibes, and a live band that had everyone dancing until the very last song. It was the kind of party that makes you wish every weekend was a wedding weekend!

Taylor & Dave’s wedding had everything I love about weddings: playful design, outdoor spaces perfect for partying under the stars, and that energy that just feels electric.

And Florida is made for this kind of wedding—lush gardens, historic venues, and plenty of room to bring bold, colorful ideas to life!

If you’re planning a wedding anywhere in Florida, the East Coast or Europe (I have dual citizenship) and want a day that feels vibrant, stylish, and completely you, let’s make it happen together!

Getting married in Florida and bringing your dog along? Let’s get make sure they get their moment to shine (and maybe a treat or two!) 🐶✨

A dreamy garden inspired wedding is all about the details 🌸

Creating a wedding vibe that’s next level doesn’t happen by accident. A colorful garden wedding at a private historic estate, with vibrant florals and thoughtfully designed touches, deserves guests who embrace the energy. Asking your guests to lean into a fun, colorful dress code can elevate your entire day—resulting in photos that are pure magic!

It’s honestly not just about matching your design (though it’s a huge bonus). It creates a cohesive, memorable experience for everyone involved. Most people LOVE a reason to dress up (hi, me), and even if not everyone does, those who lean in will make your vision come to life beautifully!

✨ Save this post if you’re dreaming of planning a wedding at Florida venues like The Orlo House, Oxford Exchange, Powel Crosley Estate or a lush garden setting like The Ringling Museum or Vizcaya. Let’s work together to capture every detail!

Bridesmaids in mismatched dresses are absolutely the way to go if you ask us! let her bridesmaids choose their own dresses, and it created a stunning mix of colors, prints, and personality. Everyone looked like themselves!

And here’s the best part—Mallory surprised them with bouquets from that were designed to perfectly match their dresses. Each one was unique, just like her friends, while her bouquet tied it all together with a burst of color!

Letting your bridesmaids pick their own dresses isn’t just more interesting than matching—it’s a way to make your friends feel confident, comfortable, and totally celebrated. Matching is fine, but this? Next level ✨

Let’s talk about getting ready, but make it fun. Grooms, this one’s for you. Your “getting ready” photos? They don’t have to feel awkward or staged (because, let’s be real, who likes that?). Instead, imagine a mix of candids and stylish shots that actually feel like you.

You can be playing pool, showing off your sleek accessories, helping your guys with their bow ties, and cracking up mid-headshot because your best man is talking s**t off frame to help keep it real! We don’t like stiff poses either - we love capturing the moments where you’re relaxed, confident, and looking sharp as hell, like here 😎

These photos are about your personality and the vibe of the day, not about making you feel uncomfortable. Trust me—you’re going to love having these memories to look back on, and they’ll be anything but awkward!

Laura & Nicholas’s Scotland wedding was nothing short of a dream! We spent 10 days with them and their families exploring Glasgow, the Highlands and Edinburgh, while they got married at a castle in between - and as Harry Potter fans, they had an owl as their ring bearer! 🦉
