  • Serves Longboat Key, FL

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!

I'll never forget how delighted my daughter was when she had a first look at the floral arrangements and tables for her wedding reception that Michelle Borrero with Precious Moments Events and her team had designed. Every detail was perfect! The roses lining the aisle on the lawn when the bride walked in were gorgeous as well. The prettiest roses I ever saw! I had been worried about the availability of flowers for a January wedding yet Michelle found large, white roses and blue hydrangea. I'm so glad we had Michelle arranging the wedding for us! She gave me some advice that saved us some money. She was always there for us when we had a question. On the wedding day, she kept everything so organized that I wasn't nervous at all. Everything went smoothly! We received many, many compliments from wedding guests!

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.

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

We had a whirlwind experience because we had to postpone our wedding not once...but twice!...due to COVID. We also live in New York, so all of the changes were managed via zoom/calls/emails, as we only were able to go down a visit 2x each year. The NK team was stellar in every way, not just in coordinating the changes and the vendors accordingly, but with making sure details that were so small were still completed and perfected. We had great spreadsheets, documents that were beyond organized - they assisting with everything from the scripts for the officiant (as we had a non denominational wedding), all paper goods and language, coordinating every bit of the decor from flowers to tent to favors, and more. They were also SUCH a pleasure to work with and we got to know them each so well and they've become friends who we can't wait to visit in the future! We felt we could always rely on them, whether the ask was so small to so big (and often times required a quick turnaround). I would recommend them hands down, ESPECIALLY Kerri, Kacie, and Nicole.

I can't even begin to express how in awe I am of our wedding day photos. Bethany and John have beautifully captured one of me and my husband's core memories. Our photos are light, dreamy, radiant and colorful - candid, posed and fun, at all the best and most flattering angles - everything I was looking for when searching for a photography team. At a personal level, Bethany and John are the most kind hearted souls. We felt so comfortable with them, cared for, and looked out after. For example, we had some family members try to input themselves into what was supposed to be me and my husband's special moments, and John and Bethany politely stepped in and took care of it, with grace and confidence. I so appreciated John for paying close attention to details - he would fix a fly away hair, ask me to sit up a little straighter, or adjust my arm in a more flattering way. The both of them can just so wonderfully read a room and the people in it. I never had to ask them of anything, they can just sense and spot a special moment. Bethany is so organized and her timeline, ideas, and plan were so carefully and thoughtfully played out! For someone who can be quite meticulous and analytical times, I'm as happy as can be and overly satisfied.. We now have the most beautiful engagement session photos and wedding day photos I could have ever asked for. We can't wait for family photos with Bethjoy when we add a little one to our lives! Thank you Bethany and John, for the best keepsakes, and for being you!

Amber was an absolute dream to work with as our wedding photographer! As an out-of-town bride, I was a bit nervous about trusting someone I hadn’t met in person, but Amber made the entire process so easy and stress-free. From our first communication, she was kind, professional, and incredibly helpful, giving me the confidence I needed from afar. On the wedding day, Amber went above and beyond—not only capturing the most beautiful, timeless photos but also offering support in so many ways. She helped organize the bridal party, guided us through the timeline, and kept everything running smoothly, all while making us feel at ease. The photos are beyond stunning, truly capturing the emotion and magic of the day. I am so grateful to Amber for being such an essential part of our wedding day and for providing us with memories we will cherish forever. If you’re looking for a talented, supportive, and thoughtful photographer, I highly recommend Amber!

Working with Alex & Isabel LLC was an absolute joy! From the moment we first connected with Bianca, her communication was fast, fun, and professional yet super friendly. The team is so talented - they were efficient, producing beautiful hair and makeup for the entire bridal party(which was 12 people in total, one of which was a 4 year old who wasn’t feeling the best due to food poisoning). Even with getting started at 5:30am, Bianca, Michelle, & Melissa were very upbeat, fun and brought all the good vibes for the morning. When one of my bridesmaids had an issue with her makeup, Bianca was more than happy to fix it for her. Bianca also stayed on site until I walked down the aisle, giving me a little pep talk before we got started with the ceremony. I can't recommend Alex & Isabel LLC highly enough - they truly helped make our special day perfect!

Our wedding at Whispering Palms Barn was nothing short of magical. The venue itself is incredibly beautiful, with every detail from the natural surroundings to the charming rustic touches creating the perfect atmosphere for our special day. It truly felt like a dream setting. What made the experience even more exceptional was the owners.

Their care, organization, and genuine passion for what they do made all the difference. We honestly could not have imagined our wedding anywhere else.
