Located in SWFL, available for travel! My style leans heavily into storytelling. I live for capturing the raw, natural moments, the in between glances, real laughter, tiny hands gripping yours.

We provided inspo for what we were looking for in our engagement shoot and she nailed it and even provided really great suggestions/additional ideas. Needless to say every photo we got back was so amazing. We are so grateful she was able to capture our special moments!

Dog mom of two, wife, lover of flowers, dance, music and tacos! The Crafts & Cocktails Co. was born back in 2019 when I hosted a crafting party with a cocktail demonstration for a group of friends, and was peer pressured into starting this fun little side business! I hold a degree in Event Management from the University of Central Florida, and after 10 years of corporate event planning a good friend reached out in 2021 asking for help with her wedding. We sat down to organize her files and tie loose ends and the sense of relief she felt at the end of our coffee date was everything to me! Ever since then, it's been wedding bliss!

BOOK Crafts & Cocktails NOW, you won't regret it! Amanda and Melissa went above and beyond for us from day one and we can't thank them enough for helping make our day so special. We used their Day of Coordination option and it was a godsend to my perfectionistic soul. I really wanted to find someone who could help me take care of the nitty gritty details so I could fully immerse and enjoy our wedding day. They help you think of and answer all the questions... even the ones you don't even know you have. Our family and friends adored them and were equally amazed by all the heart and soul they put into our wedding. The Crafts & Cocktails team is worth every penny! They make you feel like you are their one and only priority. They took our vision of an intimate backyard/in home wedding and made it more beautiful, personalized, and perfect than we ever imagined it could be. We can't thank and recommend them enough!!

We got through our photos so quickly and effortlessly. We're already obsessed with the sneak peeks, so I can't wait to see the rest!

Capturing life’s moments, especially weddings, is truly special to me. It’s about more than just taking pictures; it’s about freezing time on the most important day of two people's lives. I get to document all the raw emotions, the little details, and the love that fills the air. Each wedding is a unique story, and I feel honored to help preserve those memories forever. Outside of photography, I love hunting for shark teeth, my favorite color is pink, I’m a born-and-raised Floridian, and I love diving into new books.

I cannot recommend Myra and her wonderful talent enough! Not only did she remain professional, but she made us feel so at ease and was laughing with us the whole time. We have very little experience having photos taken but she made sure to pose us exactly how she envisioned the shot. The photos turned out better than I ever could have imagined, everyday I look at them and am so grateful we had Myra by our side on our big day! Her attention to detail, her editing skills, and just overall a lovely person to have worked with. I cannot wait for future events so I have an excuse to book Myra again!

I adore capturing and preserving the memory, heart, and soul of an event, family and couple. My approach is both editorial and artistic. Not simply documenting moments as they happen but also carefully crafting the compositions of those moments. My aim is to deliver an aesthetic that is effortlessly romantic, timeless and emotive. Mostly I want my couples to look at their images and feel the warmth, authenticity, and emotion of the day all over again.

Julia really captured the essence of our special day with such an artistic eye. The candid moments, along with the beautifully composed shots, told our wedding story in the most magical way. Every photograph was crisp, vibrant, and full of emotion. We were especially impressed with how she seamlessly captured the little details—like the flowers, rings, and our guests' reactions—that we didn't even notice in the moment. The video was absolutely breathtaking! Julia’s videography managed to blend the joy, love, and energy of our day into a cinematic masterpiece. The editing was flawless, with the right music and pacing that made it feel like a movie. Watching our wedding video felt like reliving the entire day all over again, and it truly brought tears to our eyes. She also provided us with both a highlight reel and a full-length video, which was a great touch. What stood out the most was Julia's professionalism and attention to detail. She blended into the background during the day, capturing moments without interrupting or making us feel rushed. Her friendly demeanor and clear communication made the entire process so much easier.

Welcome to our floral and event company where we specialize in offering exceptional floral design services to couples on their most important day. We understand that your wedding day is a celebration of love and a reflection of the unique bond you share.

OH MY GOODNESS. When I say I was so absolutely stunned with how the Ana’s flowers turned out, that is an understatement. I could not believe that the floral arrangements and bouquets were real when I saw them on the wedding day. Absolutely, without a doubt, one of the highlights of the day! And the designing process with Ana was just the easiest and most fun experience. She went above and beyond to pull flowers from the back room to show us how they would look together and give recommendations on which flowers would last in the Florida heat. She then personally sourced rentals and pivoted seamlessly when the hurricane led to some setbacks. Ana is one of the kindest people to work with and know. Highly highly recommend for any event planning or personal floral needs. I seriously can’t thank her enough for being such bright light throughout the planning process and the day of.

Jam All Day Sound and Entertainment began from my love of music and motivating people to dance and have a great time.

I feel blessed that my clients go out of their way to recommend me to their friends and family. I love hearing about how everyone enjoyed the music selection and how it appealed to all age groups.

Jamaal was an absolutely incredible DJ who went above and beyond to make our wedding unforgettable. After being severely impacted by Hurricanes Helene and Milton, we had to switch venues and move from a ballroom to a tent. Despite all the challenges, Jamaal showed professionalism and dedication. We especially loved the photo mirror he brought—it was such a fun, modern twist on the classic photo booth! He provided plenty of props that our guests loved using for memorable photos, and gave us a book with a collection of photos our guests had taken through out the evening via the mirror, such a special gift from our day! Jamaal also brought beautiful uplighting that transformed our tent into the ultimate dancing destination. He handled every detail with care, creating special and unique moments that truly made our day feel like ours. I would highly recommend Jamaal to anyone looking for an experienced, fun DJ who knows how to get people on the dance floor—and who can even pronounce the trickiest last names flawlessly!

As a Savannah College of Art and Design graduate, I have shot countless weddings, events, head shots, and family portraits. My passion for storytelling drives me to capture images that showcase the grace, beauty, and joy of my clients. My goal is to create heirloom-quality photographs that your grandchildren will cherish. I reside in Sarasota, Florida with my wife, two amazing kids, and slightly neurotic dogs. If you’d like to work together, let’s chat!

Steve was absolutely amazing! He did a great job getting everyone together to get pictures done. He is very patient with all the chaos. The pictures turned out so beautiful! Couldn’t have asked for a better photographer.

Chapel Creek is truly a hidden gem here in Venice, FL! The fact that they have all-inclusive packages and partner with truly amazing vendors makes the entire wedding planning experience smooth and easy. Kim and her staff really go above and beyond to make sure every single detail is organized and beautiful for your wedding day. The on-site house where my bridesmaids and I got ready was clean, spacious, and absolutely beautiful, the walkway to the aisle had exploded with jasmine blossoms, and the trees covered in spanish moss that overlook the ceremony gives an old-Florida vibe. If you are looking for a venue with natural beauty and charm, an on-site staff that is helpful and organized, and a totally relaxed wedding day then you should book with Chapel Creek today! We couldn't have been happier!
