Ying Photography We are a husband-and-wife-owned, award-winning, and published wedding photography company based in Sarasota. This is us. We are Rachel and Xiwei.

Let us capture your love story with timeless, editorial-style images! She’s old fashioned. She likes quilting, folk music, and snuggling baby goats. He’s a modern man. He likes computers, technology, and watching action movies. Somehow we met and fell in love. I guess opposites do attract! Now we have three adorable children that we love spending time with, whether it’s fighting over who gets to p

lay one of our 3 gaming consoles (how many consoles can a family have?!) or spending an afternoon outside at the beach (only half the family complains about the sand in their shoes!) we wouldn’t have it any other way. Modern tech doesn’t scare us, we’ve got cutting edge cameras and equipment. But neither do time-honored traditions. Some things never get old. One thing we both love is creating gorgeous images from beautiful, magical, unique weddings. And we both love getting to know sweet couples who are SO in love, just like us! Telling a love story is one of those things that is both brand new every day, and as old as time. We can’t wait to tell yours.

Talk about a true professional! Amy didn’t just plan her dream wedding – she worked in her wedding dress today like the boss she is! 💍✨ From the moment she said "I do" at the stunning Westshore Yacht Club to making moves in her fabulous gown, Amy’s dedication and style are unmatched. The day was filled with unforgettable details, from the spiral ceremony site to the epic video game room, all surrounded by friends, family, and wedding pros who truly admire her work. Wishing this amazing couple a lifetime of happiness and endless love! 🥂

Carmen and Clarence's wedding at Bakers Ranch was a celebration of love, resilience, and fate. 💍✨ After retiring from a distinguished career as a master sergeant in the Air Force 🇺🇸, Clarence settled in Tampa with his daughter, ready for a new chapter in life. 🌟 Carmen, on the verge of giving up on dating apps because all she kept matching with were crazies or unavailable men 😵‍💫, stumbled upon Clarence’s profile. His manly yet gentlemanly presence immediately caught her eye. 😍💪 Deciding to give him a chance, she agreed to go on a date—and the rest was history! 💕❤️ Their wedding day was filled with joy, bringing together friends and family from across the globe, including loved ones who traveled all the way from Panama 🇵🇦 to celebrate. 🛫🌎 The ceremony was heartfelt 🥹💒, and the reception was pure magic ✨, with the dance floor buzzing until the very last song 🎶💃🕺. Their love story is a testament to timing, perseverance, and the magic of finding the perfect match. 🥂🎉💖

Nina grew up surrounded by 💐weddings and flowers, always dreaming of her own fairytale day—and her dream finally came true when she married Justin. ✨ These two started as friends when they were younger, and over the years, their connection blossomed into a love story straight out of a romance novel. 💕 On a cold and cloudy day in Myakka City, their warmth and joy filled the air, transforming the atmosphere into something magical. ☁️❤️ They exchanged heartfelt vows on a stunning private property, surrounded by 50 of their closest friends who traveled from across the country to celebrate with them. 🌎✈️

Under the towering oak trees 🌳🌿 and a glowing moonlit sky 🌙✨, they danced, laughed, and created memories that will last a lifetime. The soft glow of string lights and the love of everyone present made the evening unforgettable. 🕯️💡 Their wedding day was proof that even on the cloudiest days, love has the power to shine brighter than the sun. ☀️❤️🥂 Cheers to Nina and Justin for beginning their forever in the most magical way possible! 🎉💍💫
