Tampa Anniversary Ideas

Do a photo session, visit your favorite place in Tampa Florida, think of a special location and invite a photographer to document this special day. Make sure you make reservations to have dinner at your favorite restaurant!

I gifted my parents in law a photography session with me and then we took them to Berns! They also got to experience the desert room and had a wonderful night to remember!

Taking these photos of my in-laws inspired me to write a letter.

Dear Bonnie and Dixon,

I am grateful that you have received me as another daughter in your beautiful family. From the first time I met you, I have felt more like a daughter than a daughter-in-law.

Having my family far away in Colombia has been hard but Jesus has brought me comfort through your beautiful family, it has been like a huge hug from heaven.

Thank you for allowing me to photograph you as a couple and create beautiful memories for you. I can see the love of Jesus in their marriage, the commitment and choice you made to love each other.

It is evident to those around you.

The way you look at each other,

The way you treat each other,

The way you hold hands while walking together,

How affectionate you are with each other, and how much fun you still have with each other, is just priceless!

We will cherish these precious memories that will become treasures of our hearts.

I appreciate you taking your precious time off and driving up to see us and spend some quality time with us. I am grateful for the memories we created!

I know that because of the distance it is not always possible to travel to be a part of family vacations, but having you here with us for a short week was a great blessing. Sharing with the family has filled our love tank.

Thank you both for being a listening ear, for your honesty, and for encouraging us to put Jesus first in our marriage. Thank you for showing the Love of Christ beyond the walls of your home!

Thank you for your kindness, support and love through the years.

Thank you for raising your son to be the man he is today and for sharing the knowledge of God.

I am honored and grateful for the family that God chose for me here in the United States after leaving my home in Colombia to marry your oldest son.

I appreciate you tremendously,

Until the next time, God willing, your summer visit!

Love you guys,

Carolina (Keena)

TAMPA FAMILY MINI SESSIONS | THE CARNES FAMILY

Today I wanted to share some of the favorite photos from this family session I photographed last week. I met Britni, Ryan, and their two adorable boys Jackson and Scott. We went to Hyde Park Village of course always a good spot for photos and a place to stay and hang out, go out to eat and spend time with the family.

These family mini sessions are so much fun, I loved them, they are short, we move around, we take good photos and when you do not even realize it we are done! My favorite part? By the end of our session, when I get kisses and big hugs from the little ones, I know I have done a good job! Capturing their little personalities, sweet smiles are my focus because at the end of the day I know those are the pictures that are going to be more special, just letting them be themselves, play and run around, letting them have a good time!

Finally, delivering the final photos and products to my clients, the moment, they see their photos for the first time, that takes them back to that very moment is just priceless!
