Sharon and Bob, A La Carte Pavilion Wedding

Sharon and Bob were married at the A La Carte Event Pavilion last weekend. A La Carte is a great place for a wedding, and a great place to shoot. There's always great natural light and they do a great job decorating the ceremony and reception locations. Sharon and Bob were a hoot to work with which always makes my job easier!

Bob pauses for a portrait before the ceremony.

Sharon takes her turn working it for the camera. Gotta love those columns and great architecture all over the lobby!

All the girls share a laugh. Some of these ladies were actually "groomspersons" so we called this the one for anyone wearing a dress.

Now the guys yuck it up. Likewise, we have a "bridesman" in this shot, so we'll call this anyone wearing a tux.

The Huppa was decorated in these lovely fall colors.

The newlyweds enjoy their first few pictures as husband and wife.

The weather was beautiful so we were able to use some of the great light out on the patio.

I love it when different light sources cooperate. The cake is in the middle of the room and gets enough window light for a good exposure. Luckily, the decorative orange lights are at about the same intensity, allowing for a nice background.

Sharon and Bob share their first dance. Since we were also providing video for this wedding, I was able to use Kevin's video light to draw attention to the couple. Flash would have overpowered the romantic mood created by the warm ambient light.

Aw yeah, let's get funky. It didn't take long for this crew to get down.

The lovely couple shares a soulful dance as things wind down.

Congratulations Sharon and Bob! You guys were a blast to work with! Mazal tov! Thanks for having Tampa Photo be a part of your special day.
