OUR APPROACH

Less perfect, more real

We’re just here to make sure you actually get to be at your own party. No endless photo marathons, no weird prom poses, no bossy photographer energy. Just easy, natural direction so you can hang with your favorite people (and yes—get to cocktail hour on time).

 

We love the real stuff. Direct flash, motion blur, harsh light, happy chaos—whatever makes your day feel like your day. Whether it’s a backyard bash in Tampa, an estate wedding in Palm Beach, or a wild weekend in the Keys, our goal’s the same: photos that look good but feel even better.

you live in the moments,

we make sure they last forever.

we love to travel for weddings

Based in Tampa but always up for the adventure! Florida estate weddings, private homes in Naples, colorful parties in the Keys, or a historic venue in Palm Beach—we’re there. We’re also available for destination weddings across the U.S. and Europe (Katie has Irish passport)

"We wanted Katie & Jay for our destination wedding in Key West because we fell in love with their style & they seemed like they would be a lot of fun to hang out with on our wedding day! They perfectly captured the feel & emotions of our wedding and we couldn't be happier. If you're loving their aesthetic & thinking about it, just book them. As soon as you can. They're magic."

I'M KATIE

a.k.a catherine ann

I'm Katie

Gemini. Former Disney cast member. Dual citizen.

Blame The Secret Garden for my obsession with gardens, historic places, and fashion. If a wedding takes place at a private estate draped in florals, a historic venue with stories in its walls, or anywhere fashion-forward guests are sipping champagne—I’m in my element.

 

On wedding days, you’ll catch me in a colorful outfit that feels more like a guest than a vendor (because let’s be real—people relax waaay more when they think a friend is behind the camera)! It’s my secret weapon for capturing those effortlessly candid moments that feel alive.

 

Born & raised on Long Island with a lifelong love of all things paranormal because I not only grew up in 2 haunted houses in NY, but our house in Charleston was haunted + our Tampa house is too (we live off a cemetery) so naturally, Halloween is my favorite holiday, but I still can’t pick between Spring and Fall as my favorite season.

 

I’m the nerdy one. My desk is practically an anime and Disney shrine, and I have a big Sailor Moon tattoo to prove it. I worked at Disney World, and Jay proposed in front of Rapunzel’s tower, which was the easiest “yes” of my life!

 

As of Fall 2024, I became a dual citizen of Ireland! My grandma was from County Donegal, which allowed my sisters and me to file for Foreign Birth citizenship. Now, working weddings in Europe is even easier—I can hop on a plane without the visa hassle!

a.k.a John

Former pop-punk singer. TV Extra. Celebrity Photographer.

I've been playing Disc Golf for over 15 years & used to be sponsored by Innova. On top of that, I've put on my course designer hat and designed several Disc Golf courses.

 

Before I picked up a camera, I was a pop-punk frontman for my band called Neglected Superhero & for our last show, we opened for Andrew W.K. We also played Warped Tour two years in a row in Tampa, which, fun fact, Katie was at one of those shows in 2005 — years before we knew each other! Small world, right?

 

I used to volunteer at a Big Cat Rescue in Tampa (not Carole Baskin’s). I taught a timberwolf to howl "I Love You" and a bear chased me once.

 

I love living a mile outside of downtown Tampa and jumping on my bike and going to Thunder Alley to watch the Lightning play.

 

I have a photography studio in Ybor where I do headshots, product photography & more. I've photographed some cool celebrities & sometimes work in the camera department on t.v. and film sets. Most recently I've worked on Outer Banks, Vice Principals (you can see me as an Extra in Season 2) and The Righteous Gemstones (I asked Joe Jonas if he's ever acted before while filming Season 2)
