We wanted someone who was great at candids but could also capture us posed without being stuffy and who was able to think outside the box a bit.

When I️ came across Dewitt For Love‘s booth at a wedding expo, one of the photos they had displayed was of a couple on their wedding night at Taco Bell. The photos were very editorial and sophisticated, and I thought the level of skill and creative eye required to pull that off was so impressive. After chatting with them and bonding over the fact that our sons are only a few weeks old, I️ just knew I️ had to have them.

Finding the right photographer was most important; we wanted someone who made us feel comfortable and understood who we were as a couple and able to convey that in their photographs. The photographs were most important because those are the memories that we can cherish forever. We were looking for a photographer who really leaned into unique shots and wasn’t afraid to try out-of-the-box ideasI have not seen many aesthetics like our wedding.

We chose Dewitt for Love Photography because they showcased a wide variety of shots at the expo where we met them. They really seemed to reflect each of the couples’ personalities in the way they shot photography. At the time, I didn’t even know that was something a wedding photographer could do. From the moment we hired them, they just understood what we wanted, but we also trusted them to get the shot if they wanted to be experimental.

I will be using Dewitt for Love for any professional photographs we need to be taken until the end of time! We have recommended them to countless people who have asked for recommendations, and I will forever be thankful for the vibes they helped create on the wedding day. We have beautiful photographs forever.

When looking for wedding photographers, I looked at their online portfolios and scheduled time to speak with them before booking. After my first phone call with Shannon, I knew immediately that I wanted to hire Dewitt for Love. She was so easy to talk to and even offered numerous other vendor recommendations. I could truly feel how much she really cared about our wedding being a successful event, and that was something important to me.

I specifically chose to hire Dewitt for Love not just because of their large online portfolio filled with stunning photography but also because of their fun personalities and willingness to help in all areas. Shannon and Brandon work hard, not just at taking pictures but also at setting the tone for a fun and carefree day. Weddings can be stressful, and having photographers around who lighten the mood definitely helps to keep the event focused on having fun and results in an album full of big smiles and laughter.

Our top priority was finding a photographer who could capture in a candid and editorial style. We aimed to spend most of our day just soaking in the moments, wanting images that truly reflected the genuine emotions of the day. It was important to find a photographer who could guide us when necessary but also someone we just clicked with and felt relaxed around.

From our very first conversation, it was clear that Dewitt for Love Photography was the perfect choice for us as our wedding photographer. Their photographs were stunning, and Shannon and Brandon’s infectious energy and warm personalities sealed the deal. Their passion for capturing moments of genuine connection and their timeless yet edgy style resonated with us. We were confident that they would not only deliver breathtaking images but also add great energy and mesh seamlessly into our day. And boy, did they deliver!

We were thrilled with the album we received, with over 1,000 beautiful photos that allowed us to relive every precious moment of the day. The attention to detail and the way they captured the emotions of each moment were truly remarkable. On top of that, we received countless compliments about them from our guests, praising their professionalism and talent, reaffirming that we made the perfect choice.

We wanted to work with local vendors as much as possible and used Marry Me Tampa Bay often at the beginning of our wedding research! It was so helpful to see the list of preferred vendors, search other weddings for inspiration, and read vendor reviews from the couples. Because everything on the blog is a wedding in the Tampa Bay area, it made it easy to look through the vendors and event spaces without having to filter to see if that vendor would be available for our wedding.

As someone who dabbles in photography, we looked for a photographer who understands lighting and has experience with golden hour photo shoots, direct light, and flash photography. We wanted our photos to look editorial and someone who makes us feel comfortable in front of the camera. We had a meeting with Shannon and just knew instantly that we had found our photographer. She is so bubbly and energetic, and you can tell she loves her job and has a passion for it.

We’ve seen a ton of Tampa wedding photos while researching a photographer, and the photos that resonated most with us happened to all be shot by Dewitt for Love Photography. Their photos are editorial, emotional, and just look like art. Brandon and Shannon made us all laugh throughout the day and just made everyone feel so comfortable, especially those who aren’t usually in front of a camera. They both have an eye for placement and are able to easily direct people. We definitely found our family photographer and hope to work with them forever.

We wanted editorial photos, true to color, that showcased our personalities. Given that couples spend so much time with their photographers on one of the biggest days of their lives, it was also important for us to have a team we could vibe with, who would enhance our day and build on the experience for our guests and wedding party.

Dewitt for Love Photography is the perfect team. Shannon is a details queen! When we first reached out, she expertly walked us through the wedding process from the photography standpoint (and then some). At the end of our call, she sent us a nearly finished photography timeline (a year and an hour before the wedding), which was a lifesaver down the road. As for Brandon, his fun energy is contagious in the best way. If you want someone who will enhance the party, make everyone feel comfortable, and bring out those natural smiles, he’s your guy. We received so many compliments from our wedding party and family about how comfortable they felt with our photographers, which was really important for us.
