That’s right, we look good…but only when we have AMAZING photographers cracking us up and working their mad skillz.
As I discussed previously, I was completely indecisive when it came to engagement pics. All of a sudden, we were just a few months out from our wedding and I realized it was time to get my stuff together. Thanks to all those who left comments, because it helped me realize e-pics are a great way to document the love Mr. Squirrel and I have. That’s it. No pressure, people. I realized the best possible engagement pics would be ones where we were relaxed and comfortable. We decided to first get some pics at Ballast Point Park on Tampa Bay where there are lots of luscious trees and great views. Then we went super casual and picnicked it up nearby at Fred Ball Park. Thankfully, our photographers were amazing enough to let us end the evening by starting a campfire, complete with s’mores and a few smooches.
Tampa Bay brides, I cannot rave about Sarah & Ben enough. I mean, their tagline is: Photography for Storybook Love. Did you just melt? I did…
They are this adorable married couple who are so in love themselves. They are all about capturing the little moments…the soft smile, the stolen glance. I think our pictures turned out wonderful and, while we may not use them specifically for the wedding, I am so excited to have some printed on big canvases to hang around the house, er…apartment (wah wah).
To top it off…Sarah and Ben are hysterical. They had us cracking up the entire shoot, even as Mr. S was not so gracefully about to let me drop me off a dock. We also had a bit of a trespassing incident, and the women from Grey Gardens chased us away. Oh the things we do for art…
Enough yammering, here are some of our favorites!
All photos by Sarah & Ben
So worth it. I would gladly hire Sarah and Ben for everything…for the rest of our lives. Anniversaries, pregnancies, Christmas cards…heck, maybe just a random Saturday. These are the people to call when you want to document a moment in time that is too precious to forget.
Awesome photos!! I particularly love the one of you guys in color lying on the picnic blanket–absolutely adorable!! Umm and the ring shot with the s’more? Beautiful and delicious!!
That tree, that gorgeous tree!
All the pics are amazing, they look romantic and cozy. Perfect
You two are so sweet and happy!! And amazing shots, great locations, and I LOVE S’MORES! You can tell you loved your photographers by how relaxed you both are.

Love your photos! You look so good, and comfy and cozy! The s’mores look great too.
I love the colors of your first outfit SO much! Seriously!
Our photographers are a husband and wife team, too, and we just love them – we call them Friendors at this point.
We took some of our photos at Ballast Point, too! It’s a hidden treasure…
These are beautiful! I love casual, catch-the-moment photographs, and these are perfect!
What an amazing experience! You guys look spectacular. Just the feeling you get looking at these shots…magical!
