LAKELAND WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHERS

LAKELAND WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHERS

Bringing eras together by combining our vintage aesthetic with modern-classic couples who value dreamy, joyful, and ageless images to cherish for decades to come.

You only have one wedding day, why settle for basic images your cousin could have captured?

 Too often, couples regret outdated, overly posed, or ungenuine images. As former brides who've felt this, we're here to do something different.

 

Your wedding day isn't about perfection... it's about being the real you, being present, and being able to celebrate these once-in-a-lifetime moments. Whether you are making a mess popping a bottle of bubbly in your bridal pajamas or dancing your heart out on the dance floor together, we are going to authentically tell your love story through intentional images, not just quick snapshots (sorry, cousin)!


This is the day you've both been dreaming of... and you deserve to enjoy every sip (ops, I mean second!) of it. We want to see you sip champagne, hug each loved one, and gaze into your soulmate's eyes a little longer. These will be the moments to remember.

"PHOTOGRAPHY IS MORE THAN JUST IMAGES. IT IS A COMPOSITION OF MEMORIES AND EMOTIONS."

ZOE + DAMARA: YOUR BEST FRIEND LAKELAND WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHERS


Holding her leather wedding album,

Lisa's eyes were glistening…


...with tears as she relived hearing her husband's vows for the first time. She could almost hear the violin's melody still playing softly in the garden as she caressed her wedding album.


In this moment, we've never felt so satisfied with the art we’ve created as wedding photographers. While our friendship began bonding over our shared love for champagne and photography, being able to preserve moments like Lisa's is one of the many reasons why we love being your best friend wedding photography duo.

"ZOE AND DAMARA WERE AN ABSOLUTE PLEASURE TO WORK WITH. THEY ALLOWED US TO ENJOY OURSELVES AND CAPTURE THE BEAUTY IN THE LITTLE MOMENTS, AND OUR PICTURES ARE GORGEOUS. WE WILL TREASURE THESE PHOTOS FOR THE REST OF OUR LIVES"

-Kathy & Alex
