I’m Kristen — a wife, mom, coffee lover, and lifelong dreamer inspired by the magic in everyday moments. Whether it’s sandy toes at the beach or quiet time with family, I’m drawn to what feels real. I capture connection in its truest form — the joy-filled, imperfect, beautiful moments that make your story yours, and memories you’ll carry for a lifetime.

Asimpledreamerco was an absolute joy to work with for our proposal photography. From the very first message, their communication was easy, quick, and personable - they felt like friends rather than just vendors. On the day of the proposal, they were fully prepared with a ton of creative photo ideas, and their work was crisp and high-quality. They even helped my fiancé plan a surprise proposal for me, complete with flowers and champagne! I was completely shocked but they captured the moment perfectly. Asimpledreamerco went above and beyond to make our proposal day special, and we are thrilled with the beautiful photos they delivered so quickly. We couldn't have asked for a better photography experience.

From the very beginning, Alivia made the whole experience so easy and enjoyable. We actually met online after she responded to a post to help support us by photographing our wedding in the beautiful Turks and Caicos Islands, and we’re so grateful that our paths crossed. From that moment on, her communication was incredible. She was always there to answer our questions, keep us updated, and make us feel completely at ease throughout the whole process. On our wedding day, Alivia was simply amazing. She captured every special moment perfectly, and the photos are absolutely stunning. They’re memories we’ll cherish forever.

Not only is she incredibly talented, professional, and passionate about what she does, but her friendly personality makes the whole experience so enjoyable. A special mention also has to go to her husband, Dylan, who was incredible throughout our special day. He was always there to help, support, and make sure everything ran smoothly, and together they made the perfect team. We feel so lucky to have met them both, and I know one day we’ll get to meet again. Thank you for everything, Alivia and Dylan—you’ll always have a special place in our hearts.

Hi everyone, I’m Carolin, originally from Würzburg, Germany, and now living in Bradenton, Florida. For over 11 years, I’ve been a professional photographer, specializing in weddings, couples, and families. My background in graphic design helps me focus on capturing beauty and detail to create lasting memories. In my free time, I love relaxing at Anna Maria Island’s beaches with my husband Philipp and starting my day with a Chai Latte from Starbucks. I’m also passionate about exploring new cultures and traveling. Can’t wait to get to know you!

We were looking for a photographer who would capture our special day in more than just photos. It was essential for us to have someone who could convey emotions and capture those natural moments. Let’s be honest—typical posed wedding photos aren’t something anyone looks back at later. With Carolin, we hit the jackpot! She is incredibly friendly and works professionally, delivering results that are amazing and worth every euro. We chose the full package with photos and a wedding film, and we couldn’t be happier with that decision. Our friends and family love the memories of our wonderful day, and the enthusiasm from our guests for Carolin has led to several bookings for more weddings and family photos—what better compliment could she receive? Everything went smoothly from the start. Whenever we had questions or felt uncertain, Carolin was always there to help and listen. Her self-created wedding planner was an incredible aid for our timeline. If you want unique memories of your wedding that are anything but ordinary, Carolin is the perfect choice. We are so grateful for everything and look forward to showing this wonderful video and these photos to our children one day. A heartfelt thank you to Carolin! To all future brides and grooms, you can’t go wrong by choosing her. Book her, and cross that off your to-do list!

They didn’t just take pictures; they told our story in the most genuine and heartfelt way. What meant the most to us was how natural everything felt. Nothing was forced or awkward. They knew exactly how to guide us while still letting us be ourselves, and that really shows in every shot. We are beyond grateful for the memories they gave us.

I can play solo violin with background accompaniment, violin/cello duet, a string trio or a string quartet, depending on what suits you. Violin playing is my passion! Music is how I make my living. I am not someone who has a career outside of music and “dabbles” in music on the side, for extra money. I hold both a BA, and an MA in music and love to enhance your wedding and other events with beautiful, live violin playing.

Francesca J was a standout choice for our wedding day. From our first conversation through the final note, she stayed in touch and made sure we knew exactly what to expect. She showed up on time and played with such grace that our guests couldn't stop talking about it. The violin added an elegance to our ceremony that we couldn't have gotten any other way. Francesca's professionalism and genuine care for making our day special made all the difference. We'd hire her again in a heartbeat.

I am the Mother of the Bride and feel so enthusiastic about Precious Moments Events, that I wanted to submit this review in addition to the bride's review. Michelle's expertise with vendors, floral arrangements, venues, etc., helped our planning immensely. Her vendors are incredible: from the photographer to the DJ to her in-house florist... her people all came together to make the wedding day incredibly special. Michelle responded to our questions quickly and always had solutions ready to go. What really stood out was her eye for detail in every aspect of the day—the flowers were absolutely stunning and exactly what we envisioned (the bride's bouquet was perfect). Furthermore, she was sensitive to our budget and worked with us to keep within our parameters. This impressed me. Michelle's team clearly cared about making our daughter's wedding special, and it showed in their work.

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.

Wow. Bianca was an absolute breeze and pleasure to work with. Her calming presence and professionalism are EXACTLY what I needed on my wedding day, and we had a lot of fun! She went above and beyond for me. My hair was being unreasonable due to a bad product I had used the day before, but she was patient and extremely knowledgeable. She took what I showed her in inspiration photos and made it look even better. My hair and makeup turned out ABSOLUTELY PERFECT - I couldn’t have asked for more. AND it lasted all day/night on the breezy beach, through many tears of joy. So so happy to have chosen her! Most of the businesses in the area wouldn’t even allow for just bridal makeup without having to purchase a full party package, and our budget didn’t allow for covering everyone’s, so I was very grateful to find Bianca.

Let’s get to know each other! 👋🏼 Hi, I’m Brittany — and I’m so excited you’re here! First of all, thank you for considering me to be a part of your special day. With over 10 years of experience in wedding planning and design, I’ve had the absolute joy of helping couples bring their dream weddings to life. When I’m not coordinating timelines or fluffing veils, you’ll find me soaking up the sun ☀️, sipping on coffee ☕, or spending time with my crew — my husband of 7 years, our two amazing kids and our two pups, Bear and Boone.

Awarded Best of Zola
Brittany was an awesome day-of coordinator! If we had to go back and do it again, Brittany would be one of the first people we would call. She brought a much needed calm, conscientious, and confident presence to give us the perfect day. She was around every step of the way to understand the big-picture and minute-by-minute logistics. She helped us create our timeline, wrangle and align all the vendors, and stayed in close contact with everybody to keep the event going the exact way we imagined. When small issues would emerge, she handled them with ease and speed. When we ran behind schedule, she was reassuring and did a great job helping us prioritize what we needed to do. She was also incredibly hospitable and thoughtful – she even brought us a plate of appetizers since we were doing photos during our cocktail hour! The last thing I wanted to say is that Brittany was actually our SECOND day-of coordinator, because we had to fire our first one. Maybe that means we have high standards? I don’t know. But, if we do, Brittany certainly exceeded them. She gave us tremendous confidence in her and her ability to carry out our event throughout the entire process. -Zak and Hannah

Thanks for stopping by! My name is Yanny (pronounced yaw - knee) and I'm a wedding, couples, and storytelling photographer in SWFL. Born and raised in the PNW I like to think that the moody and grey atmosphere from that world has found it's way into my photography style. Candid, raw, full of emotion, and photos that you can "feel" are what I live for! My wife and I live in Sarasota FL with our sweet little boy Moses and our crazy cat Martini. We love the easy-going lifestyle on the gulf coast and whenever I'm free you can find me either exploring a new coffee shop, thrifting, serving at my local church, or spending time with my family!

We hired Yanny for our wedding, and we couldn't be happier! From our initial consultation, they were incredibly professional and attentive, taking the time to understand our vision for the day. Their communication was excellent, and they were always quick to respond to our questions. He made us and our guests feel completely at ease, and has a real talent for capturing candid moments. Every picture perfectly captures the happiness and romance of our wedding day. We can't wait to cherish and show off her photos forever!

Hi, I’m Em, the owner of Shoreline Sips by Em! I’m a mobile bartender based on Florida’s Gulf Coast, and I’m passionate about creating memorable experiences through handcrafted cocktails and exceptional service. I believe the bar is more than just a place to grab a drink it’s where guests gather, celebrate, and make lasting memories. From intimate beach weddings to large-scale celebrations, I work closely with each couple to create a customized beverage experience that reflects their style and vision. My goal is to take the stress out of bar service so you can focus on enjoying your day with the people you love.

Emily was absolutely amazing. She was organized, responsive, and made the entire planning process so easy. She helped us with drink selections, answered all questions, and made sure every detail was covered before our event. The presentation on the day of was beautiful, our guests talked about how friendly Emily was, the drinks were the prettiest I've ever seen (I will include a photo), service was quick. If you're searching for a bartender, Emily is the one.

Capturing the beauty of your big day as a wedding photographer is a dream come true! I have a heart to serve couples and families, each moment fills my heart, as I capture the details that make your day special.

I just saw my wedding photos and OMG they are fabulous! You can tell by Deanna’s work she has a true eye and passion for what she does. We were given Deanna’s contact info via a recommendation and we couldn’t be more pleased! I have a very particular eye so it was very important to me to have someone that was truly talented. Her kindness, professionalism, patience, punctuality and enthusiasm helped make our wedding day an absolute delight. She chose beautiful locations and scenes to capture every special moment throughout the day and even assisted with the vision for our beach ceremony by working diligently with the florists to make sure we had the best angle, location, and framing for our wedding photos. She continuously asked if there were any more photos we wanted to take before moving on to the next location. If you’re looking for a photographer, reach out to Deanna. You will not be disappointed!

You know how they say planning a wedding is one of life's big stressors? Well if they found Nicole's team from the start, the saying wouldn't exist. If you're reading this, trust me - hire them! I got married over a year ago and I am still one of those annoying brides who talk obsessively talk about their wedding because of them. I got the opportunity to meet the whole team through various visits but primarily worked with Kacie. Is it weird to miss talking to your wedding planner? Kacie is the full package - she is enthusiastic to your ideas, offers creative solutions and is incredibly patient when you change your "vision" a billion times like I did. She presented vendors at different price points and offered cost efficient alternatives to stay on budget. We loved every single vendor we chose and that's easily because Nicole's team has vetted out the good/ reliable ones. I was an (type A) out of state bride so was relatively nervous but Kacie's professionalism is what sold me. She would constantly update me on progress, patiently answer all questions and never pressured me into a decision. No task is to big or too little for this team- we went from deciding how to fold napkins all the way to sending guests different housing accommodations when the hotel sold out. What makes this team special is their innate attention to detail - I was absolutely floored when I saw it all come together when the day finally arrived. It was so much more beautiful than I ever imagined! Thank you Kacie and team for orchestrating my fairy tell wedding

Hi! We are Zoe and Damara, a Southwest Florida based best friend wedding photographer duo who is open to traveling anywhere! Zoe was born and raised in the small town of Champaign, Illinois, but is a beach girl at heart and was meant to be born by the ocean. She is a serene visionary with a huge passion for unique and antique, so she is often dreaming up new photography ideas that include touches of vintage flare. Damara is a Cuban-American woman born and raised in the heart of Miami! She has a vibrant personality and is the extroverted, "corkier" half of Popping Champaign that you can rely on to make you laugh through out the day.

Zoe did an absolutely amazing job capturing our day. Damara was also incredible in helping to be creative with poses and making things super fun! Zoe is a very nice person and made us feel at ease. She captured elements of the background and settings, and was able to get pictures of us with all of our guests. She is incredibly responsive, and has a questionnaire to fill out before hand to ensure that you get all of the photos that matter to you. I am looking forward to using her services in the future.

Baking has been my passion since 6th grade- so much so that I left my corporate job behind to bake for love stories full time! I specialize in custom wedding cakes, interactive food bars, and an upcoming dessert trailer experience with full staffing starting this December. My mission? Making whatever desserts you've been dreaming of to ensure your big day is 100% you.

We had such a great experience with Lace Makes Cakes for our elopement desserts. From the start, the owner was incredibly responsive and easy to work with, making the whole process feel seamless. We ordered a 9 inch heart shaped cake and 12 white rose cupcakes for 150 plus delivery, and the quality exceeded what we paid for. The cake was as delicious as it looked, and the cupcakes were stunning with their shimmer dust and pearl details. She even delivered everything to our Airbnb on Anna Maria Island, which meant one less thing to stress about on our special day. We would absolutely recommend Lace Makes Cakes to any couple looking for beautiful desserts without the headache.
