Ashley and Darren have the sweetest pups, Hazel, Remi, and Jax, and of course wanted to include them in their engagement session. When planning locations with dogs it’s important to choose a spot that is dog friendly but also a place where your dog will be happy and comfortable! Crescent lake park is one of the places they go all the time so it was the perfect location.

Kelly and Nick are getting married at one of our favorite Clearwater Beach venues and they wanted to take advantage of that beautiful location for their engagement session as well. We basically had the entire stretch white sandy of beach at Carlouel Yacht Club all to ourselves.

Being from the midwest, it’s not lost on me how fortunate we are to be such an amazing destination location for weddings! One of the best parts is that I get to meet in person, and do engagement sessions for our couples while they’re here in town doing wedding planning things! Bonnie and Mike are from New Jersey and planning their destination wedding here in Clearwater Beach.

Cathy and Dominic chose the beautiful Don Cesar for their destination wedding and we got to spend some time with them for their engagement session while they were here doing some wedding planning things.

Sarah’s parents got this sweet pup, Toby, and of course she and Lior had to include him in their engagement photos. How adorable is that little pup sized tux? They actually live in Tel Aviv and I got to spend time with them the week before their wedding doing this beautiful session.

Who doesn’t love a romantic picnic at the beach? A little champagne, charcuterie and fruit! I love this sweet little setup Lisette came up with for her and Michael’s engagement session at Fred Howard Park.

Logan and Kevin arehaving a coastal styled wedding at the Grand Hyatt in April next year. To compliment the theme and views of Tampa we did their engagement session at Ballast Point Park where there is the perfect view of downtown from the water front!

Carissa and Anthony are getting married at Nova 535 in St. Pete next April and wanted a little bit of down town Tampa for their engagement session. Since they’re getting married in St. Pete and did their engagement session in Tampa, they get both sides of the bay! It doesn’t really get any more “Tampa” than university of Tampa, as it’s such an icon and there’s SO many gorgeous locations!
