« Back to BlogElise and Vinnie are getting married! {Tampa Engagement Photography}
by Kimberly Romano on 06-06-2012 02:14PM in Local Weddings
It truly is a blessing that I am able to do what I love as a career. One thing that makes it even more amazing is when an entire family falls in love with what you do. I’ve had the honor of capturing Vinnie’s brothers and sisters wedding over the years, and now it’s his turn for the big day. I’m so excited to continue to be a part of this family year after year. Elise and Vinnie met at USF in the education building, so it was important to them to have some of their engagement session done here. Not a problem for me…such a beautiful campus! We also escaped to a field I had found literally a week before near USF off of 41.
Stephanie and Matt’s Destination Wedding {St Petersburg Beach Wedding Photography}

This wedding was so special for me to be a part of. Back in the day before I was blessed to start my photography company I used to work for the State Attorney’s Office which is where I met Stephanie. She…was my supervisor, and an great one at that. After leaving the SAO, I lost touch with Stephanie until we found each other on facebook. Yay! It was great to catch up with her…then one day she told me she was engaged! I was so excited and what was even more exciting was she asked me to capture it for her! I was so honored and couldn’t wait for the wedding day….and to meet this Matt fellow. (He turned out to be a good guy btw) Since they are living in Alabama, they were planning a small wedding with only their closest family and friends here in sunny Florida on our beautiful beaches. So, the big day finally arrives and there is rain in the forecast. Really? I arrive to the Bilmar Beach Resort, only to find that not only is it raining…but there is a huge event right behind the hotel, directly on the beach, which was literally turned into a parking lot. In my 19 years of living here…I had never seen anything like it.
Real Wedding Carolyn and Mark at Clearwater Beach

Carolyn and Mark left the snowy cold of Buffalo, New York to come down to sunny, warm, Florida to be married! It was a beautiful sunny day with a warm breeze coming off the ocean. Mark was waiting at the beach for Carolyn in order that he would see her for the first time in her beautiful gown and veil. She looked stunning as she walked towards her groom for their very private and intimate wedding on Clearwater Beach. The bride carried a beautiful bouquet of calla lillies, and they exchanged traditional wedding vows as they stood within a heart shaped in the sand.
Kelly & Josh {Snell Isle Gazebo Wedding}

When we were asked to be a part of Kelly & Josh’s wedding in February, we were honored. The wedding took place at the Gazebo in Snell Isle. The Gazebo, one of Snell Isle’s best kept secrets; is nestled right in front of The Renaissance Vinoy Golf Club. It is a beautiful venue to have an intimate ceremony and Kelly & Josh were the most beautiful and personable couple that we’ve had the pleasure to work with. Kelly hired us to coordinate her ceremony in February around Valentine’s Day. With about 45 guests, including family, they said their vows in an intimate gathering of loved ones. The bride’s flowers, was a round hand held bouquet of two dozen red roses with crystal pins in between the blooms to accent. The stems of the bride’s bouquet were wrapped in white satin ribbon with crystal accents.
Liz and Derek at the Vinoy

It's been way too long since we've updated the blog! Have you visited our facebook page? We are updating that much more frequently so please make sure you check us out there! But I wanted to share this fabulous wedding we coordinated in October. Liz and Derek, their families, and all of their almost 200 guests traveled to St. Pete from all over the U.S. for this huge destination wedding. I worked mostly with Liz's mom, Maggie, and she was just a pleasure to plan with from afar. I would describe their style as tropical elegance, and their wonderful team of vendors helped pull off a fantastic wedding. Thanks especially to Debbie with The Brides' Bouquet and Craig from Grant Hemond and Associates.
