Clearwater Wedding with Carliana and Marcos

Marcos knew when her first met Carliana that she was the one for him.  There was just something about her that drew him to her, and he wanted to call her his wife one day.  At their Tampa engagement session, I got a great feel for their personalities.  Carliana is the more outspoken of the two, while Marcos sits back and just enjoys every little thing she does.  She smiles and he melts.  He laughs and she gets all weak in the knees.  Andi Diamond Photography was thrilled to be able to capture their wedding photography at their Clearwater wedding last weekend.  Since Carliana and Marco are both from Puerto Rico, many elements of their wedding represented the flair for their Latin American culture.  wedding make up artists in TampaCarliana’s wedding dress was custom designed by Demetrios and had a 25 foot train!wedding dresses in tampaCarliana wanted a very unique look to the details in their wedding.  Instead of traditional wedding flowers, she opted for a wedding bouquet created from crystals, and it was truly one of the most beautiful wedding bouquets!  I loved how she represented her their names with crystal initials.wedding bridal bouquet and wedding shoesAfter the wedding ceremony, the bride and groomed hopped into their their Rolls Royce and we headed to the wedding reception.limo and rolls royce rentals for wedding transportationWhen we got to the Kapok Tree in Clearwater, we spent some time creating portraits of the bride and groom.  And I think they really loved playing and fun having with the camera (Smiles!)  Y Marcos, tu esposa es muy bonita!Latin wedding at the Kapok Tree in ClearwaterY Carliana, tu esposo es muy guapo!  puerto rican wedding photography in clearwater and tampaCarliana’s aunt is so talented.  She created most of the wedding decor at the wedding (and did Carliana’s hair!).  I also know for a fact that Marcos spent many hours drilling wholes in the plate chargers so they could add crystals!wedding cake and wedding decor in Tampa and clearwaterI hope you are enjoying your tropical honeymoon, Carliana and Marcos.  Specials thanks to the following wedding vendors who I adore working with:  Mo and David at VHVideo.com for the wedding videography, Laurie at A Piece of Cake for a beautiful (and delicious) wedding cake, Olympia Catering for the catering, and Jose at Just Outstanding Entertainment for his DJ services and keeping the party amazing!  The wedding guests also had some fun with a photobooth by ShutterBooth.

Ft. DeSoto Engagement Photography with Katie and Ronnie

There are so many reasons why I LOVE photographing engagement sessions.  It allows me to create artwork for my clients to display in their homes and at their weddings.  It gives me the opportunity to get to know my couples before I photograph their weddings, AND it gives my couples a chance to really get to know and trust me before their big day.  Katie and Ronnie were 100% evidence as to why engagement sessions are so important (and fun)!  Check out some of my FAVES from their Fort De Soto Park engagement session in Tierra Verde.  Katie, you are so striking!Ronnie, you can work it out, too!Minus the crazy mosquito infestation that we experienced, I loved getting to know more about Katie and Ronnie….like how Katie and I share the same obsession with reality TV (American Idol, The Bachelor!), and hearing about Ronnie’s job as a professional baseball recruiter for the San Francisco Giants.I cannot wait to photograph this wedding in November at the Sandpearl on Clearwater Beach.  Katie and Ronnie, I loved laughing with you both and listening to your stories.  Thank you for trusting Andi Diamond Photography to capture your engagement portraits and wedding photography!

Tampa Wedding Photographer Captures the Tampa Videographers

I first met the team at VHVideo.com when I photographed Nicole and Art’s Tampa wedding last year.  It was an instant connection and I knew I would love photographing events that they were videoing.  We had similar visions and styles, and worked so well together.  We started in Andi Diamond Photography‘s South Tampa studio for their headshots.  Here are just a few of my faves:

Then we headed into downtown Tampa  to create their corporate images for their new branding campaign:

Rocking their sunglasses!Mo and David were looking for super funky, creative, and edgy, so we went into a grave yard that was over 100 years old to capture these images!

And because I LOVE a challenging lighting situation, we kept on shooting long after the sun went down to create this moody, dramatic image:

If you are looking for an amazing wedding videography/cinematography team, I highly recommend VHVideo.com.  If you need corporate video for your businesses, you can trust this team to create fabulous videos for your company, too!  Check out what they did for Andi Diamond Photography HERE.  (It is our wedding photography commercial video….and I LOVE it!)  As always, it was a blast working with you guys!  Enjoy your teasers.
