Carmela Blackwell Photography, a Lakeland, Plant City, Winter Haven and all of Central Florida based wedding photographer capturing your joyful wedding day.
Halloween is one of my favorite holidays to photograph, and this year I had the pleasure of capturing the spooky nuptials of Chenoa and Matt at Still Creek Farm in Lakeland, FL. From skeleton hands on their invitations to cobwebs on their tables, this Halloween-themed wedding was a true treat (all Halloween puns intended!) for the eyes.
As a Lakeland area wedding photographer, I am always thrilled to capture the special moments of a couple's big day. But there's something particularly magical about small, intimate affairs like the one I had the pleasure of shooting for Taylor and Ethan at Lake Crago Park. With a close knit group of friends and family in attendance, the love and joy in the air was palpable.
Austin and Rosa's October wedding at Resurrection Catholic Church in Lakeland, FL was a beautiful celebration of their love and commitment. It was everything all rolled into a few moments in time. Laughter, tears, joy, more laughter! The reception that evening was everything they could have wished for at the gorgeous Lone Palm Golf & Country Club.
As an Orlando Destination Wedding Photographer, I have the privilege of capturing love stories from all over the world. But there's something special about shooting a wedding in your home state, and that's exactly what I got to do for Andrew and Julie's big day.
It was a windy November day at Paddlefish in Disney Springs, and the bridesmaids were dressed in beautiful deep green velvet dresses while the groomsmen wore sleek black suits. The atmosphere was electric with excitement as the couple exchanged their vows on the top deck, surrounded by their closest family and friends.
As a Destination Orlando Wedding Photographer, I have the honor of capturing some of the most special moments in a couple's life. But every once in a while, I come across a couple that truly takes my breath away with their love and devotion to each other. Donna and Craig are that kind of couple.

Covington Farm is a working horse farm located on 75 rolling green acres. The luscious pastures are lined with ancient, moss hung oaks.
Situated on Buddy Lake and Lake Pasadena, the photo opportunities are endless. Peaceful and serene, Covington Farm is Old Florida at its finest.
The Farm is located in Dade City, Florida.
There are so many beautiful locations for photos throughout the wedding day from beginning to end.
The upstairs suites for the bride and groom are huge and perfectly decorated and have the most gorgeous light for getting ready photos.
I adore well thought out getting ready suites and Covington Farm covered all the bases from a huge bed for all the ladies to take a group picture on to dark wood and leather in the grooms suite to compliment the guys attire.
And outside continues the feelings of space and harmony.

The sun sets directly over the lake? Ohhhh, be still my beating heart!
