Hillsborough County Courthouse elopement in downtown Tampa
Judley & Tyliek called me for their Tampa courthouse wedding and I answered that call! I love this area and love it even more in the late afternoon. I find that for almost all courthouses, making the latest possible appointment means a few things:
- Less waiting at the courthouse
- Fewer people getting in the way of your photos
- Luscious late afternoon Florida light
Judley & Tyliek are toddler parents who snuck out for a day-date to get married before heading home to take their 3-year-old to Paw Patrol. In my world, this looks like hiding in my bathroom to eat ice cream in peace but to each their own!
When I asked why they chose me, Judley said, “It took one TikTok that I saw was photographed in Orlando and immediately hoped you travel to Tampa. I started going through your website and saw how so many of these couples’ pictures just look so beautiful. I appreciate a photographer who guides you through the process of how to actually pose and is familiar with location.”
It fills my heart with joy when I hear that the elements I want to bring to my work are getting through as intended. I hope that when people look at my work, they get a sense of not just who the subjects are, but who I am as a photographer and how you can expect me to show up for you on your big day.
Thank you for having me, Judley & Tyliek it was my pleasure!
