In addition to wedding photography, I also love fashion photography. I recently had a very fun shoot with Welsh model – Sarah Terry. We used downtown Tampa as a backdrop and it was shot at night. (one of my favorite times to shoot downtown) Please leave me a comment and let me know what you think.

We had our first bridal show booth this month. It was great meeting and talking with all of the possible future Christopher Visuals brides. Here are a few pictures of our booth.

Vanessa was tired of being my lighting guinea pig. She’s even cute when she isn’t smiling.

We photographed a great wedding this past weekend at the A La Carte Pavilion in Tampa. We had a super fun time with this beautiful couple and it was such a treat to be a part of their day. The A La Carte is a wonderful venue and they had it decorated perfectly. Here are a few teaser shots that I sent to the couple to hold them over. Please let me know what you think. Enjoy!

It’s been forever since I’ve updated my blog but thanks to the urging of my friend Patrick Dean to keep everyone updated in the photography world of Christopher Visuals, I’ve decided to make a new post. I also plan to post some of my past photos because a lot has happened since my last entry. For now I will post my latest project for 1800ASKGARY. Enjoy!

Fashion Shoot | Tampa, Florida

admin — Sun, 24 Jan 2010 18:48:21 +0000

In addition to photographing weddings, I also do fashion photography. I recently was able to work with Sandra C. Hagen, an extremely talented clothing designer here in the Tampa Bay area. Sandra is a graduate of IADT and has been working in the Tampa Bay area since then. Her designs are very delicate and feminine.

We had a fantastic team of professionals on this shoot. The hair styling was done by the always amazing, Tammica Simone. The makeup was done by Bella Skin and Body, who I have also worked with on weddings. I was assisted by Patrick Dean, who also does his own photography in addition to assisting me.

The models were; Megan Henderson, Adriana Susana, and Lacey Buchanon. They were all really great and had to put up with near freezing temperatures with very little clothing to warm them up.

Cassie and Mike! | Sarasota, Florida

I had the pleasure of photographing Cassie and Mike’s wedding in Sarasota, Florida. Cassie and Mike are extremely photogenic. I think Mike has a kind of Jason Statham look going, minus the “I’m going to break your neck” expression. They were both really fun people and very easy to photograph. I want to give props to my assistant Patrick Dean for all of his help that day.

The wedding was at The Ascension Lutheran Church and the reception was at The Bird Key Yacht Club.

I wanted to wish everyone a happy New Year with some shots that I took from a parking garage in Tampa. It was a perfect night for photographing the fireworks and the view was unreal. Here are a few of my favorites. Enjoy!

Savannah and Johnathan – Kapok, Clearwater

I’m going a little out of order with my blogs but I have a few weddings that I never did a blog for and I need to catch up.

This is Savannah and Johnathan. They were a wonderful couple and fun to work with. The wedding was at The Kapok Gardens in Clearwater, Florida. The scenery there is amazing with tons of cool background and places to shoot. I had the pleasure of working with Kathy DeMarco from Made For Each Other Weddings. She was a great help and the event was flawless thanks to her expertise.

Here’s is some of the day. Enjoy!

Kelly & Nash – Plantation Golf Resort and Spa

admin — Mon, 14 Dec 2009 19:03:15 +0000

I was looking through the archives of weddings that I’ve photographed and came across this one I did with Reid Stains back in March and realized that I never posted a blog for this one. It’s amazing how much my photography has evolved in 9 short months. Kelly and Nash were a great couple and very photogenic. The location was the Plantation Golf Resort and Spa in Crystal River. This wedding came from a referral from a coworker of mine back when I used to work full time for a mindclay a local production company. Thankfully, God has provided and given me the opportunity to work for myself and build my own business. I still do some freelance for mindclay and I’m glad to be able to continue to work with them as they are great company to work for. Please check out their website.

Enough talk! Here’s the favorites from the day!

I thought this old-school portrait look was great.

Here is Becky, the co-worker I was talking about.

Thanks for viewing my blog. Be sure to see the next one!
