Italian Club of Tampa Wedding | Tampa Wedding Photographer

The “fall” wedding season is kicking off with an absolutely gorgeous wedding at the Italian Club of Tampa after most of the summer off! I was feeling particularly creative after spending some time in resting and fueling my creative spark and was excited to bring that energy to Daniela and Darren’s day. Thankfully they are both so incredibly kind, and relaxed together which made my job easy and fun.

Her getting ready photos are some of my favorites because everyone was so helpful and just THERE for the bride. Her details we so fun to photograph, and Hotel Haya made it easy with stunning rooms and balconies.

Daniela and Darren’s families are all so thoughtful and every first look was accompanied with such sweetness.

It’s important to me that the wedding day is balanced between getting the photos that will help you remember the day and actually experiencing it. I usually try to have all photos finished well before the ceremony start time. On this day however, we had a larger gap inbetween the ceremony and reception so we did all our photos outside of the Academy of Holy Names where their ceremony took place.

After a beautiful ceremony, family photos, and bridal party photos, we grabbed newly-wed portraits before Daniela and Darren took off to the Italian Club to get ready to make their grand entrance into their reception!!

The rest of the evening was spent keeping the energy up on the dance floor.

A huge thank you to the vendors who made this day beautiful!!!
