Island Inn on Sanibel Island. If you are looking for a quaint little spot on the island to get married on I would highly recommend stopping by and checking out the old-fashioned hotel and their cottages. Super Cute!

This was a perfect day and location for this Destination Beach Wedding. Bright blue skies before and during the beach ceremony and a perfect sunset to cap off the day. The wedding was held at the Island Inn Resort on Sanibel Island.

Tween Waters Inn Wedding
If you are looking for an Old Florida beach town to tie the knot in I would surely stop by Tween Waters on Captiva Island. This place has it all: The Gulf of Mexico, the Bay, marina, 2 restaurants, a spa, a pool.

How cute are these little ones.
There is a story behind these rings. The year before they got married they came to Sanibel Island for a vacation and found a few mother of pearl shells. They went back home and located a jeweler that made custom pieces. So the took in the shells, designed the rings and a few weeks later they have matching rings that will last a life time.

A look at Kathryn and Dustin’s Destination Beach Wedding on Sanibel Island by Scott Kelsey Photography.
The decor was vintage beach theme, I really liked the blue glass mason jars they used as flower vases.
The bride got ready in an old Florida Cottage that was perfect for a beach wedding. It had tons of windows, a dream indoor environment for me as a photographer.
The couple tied-the-knot right at sunset, the lighting was perfect.
Once the ceremony was over we headed out to shoot a mini session with just the bride and groom. We like these shoots because everyone stay back and the newly weds get to enjoy their first few minutes alone, very intimate.
This shot is one of my favorites of this year, it just capped off a classic beach wedding. Cangrats Kathryn and Dustin.

Introducing Our New Wedding Albums
We have searched high and low for the prefect wedding album and we think we have found them. We just upgraded our albums to a “Lay flat” printed on a rich photographic paper with a beautiful metallic cover. Seriously… they are amazing. You really have to hold this in your hands to feel the quality of the materials, but this is the next best thing. Let us know what you think.

Sanibel Wedding Photographer: Kent + Kim
Look at that look, pure happiness.
Sanibel Wedding Photographer
What a special moment. Looking into each other eyes at their first sunset together as a married couple.
Father + Daughter Dance are one of most special parts to the reception. The two slow danced for a few seconds and then the beat dropped. They had a whole dance/skit planned out that no one knew about. AWESOME!
I love the lighting on this photo, on of my favorite first dances of the year.
Sanibel Arms West on Sanibel
and this was their exit: They danced to the door, Kent picked Kim up spun her around and they walked out those old french doors. A perfect ending to their day.

Love this old florida cottage back drop for the brides walk down to the beach to meet up with her future husband.
This is the one that sealed the deal. Congrats to the bride and groom.
Loved the golden sunset after the wedding, the reflection off of the Gulf was absolutely stunning.

Sanibel Island Wedding
We like to say our style is more of a Fine Art meets Wedding Photojournalism, we try not to pose our couples too much we let
you all interact with each other the way that makes you feel comfortable. That is the key if you feel comfortable your photos are
going to come out way better. Take the above photo for an example. Look how the groom is staring out the bride and how she is
laying against him as if they have sat like that before.
The above photo here shows the bridge and groom staring into one another’s eyes. We like to step back for a few minutes and
just when the couple has forgotten about us we start shooting, that is when we capture the most intimate shots of a wedding.

Are you thinking about doing a Trash the Dress session? Let me just tell you this is the most fun you will ever have a photo shoot. A typical session starts out kind of light, laying on the ground or sitting in the grass. The whole idea is to do something that most brides would never think about doing to their dress.
After a few minutes the brides start to really get into the shoots, climbing on rocks, laying in shells, just not worrying about snagging the dress or ripping it a little.
Then the fun begins: Trashing the dress, most of our brides get fully in the water with their gowns on, waves crashing over their bodies, sand getting into places it should be. All in all it is up to you where and what you do in a Mess the dress session. The possibilities are endless… Book Your Session Today.

Sanibel Island Beach Wedding by Scott Kelsey Photography
I love the background on the above photo, one cannot walk by a teal hurricane shutter and not take a photo of it. For the below photo, we were moving location and walked right up on this bent palm tree, a perfect spot for the bride and her ladies.
We found this little shell on the window seal at the cottage where the bride was staying, we assume that someone in the family went shelling that morning and left it outside their room to bleach it out with sunlight. Well this made for a perfect place holder for the rings.
I love how happy she is in this photo.
One of my favorite DYI Beach Wedding signs. Very Beachy!

Trash The Dress
We shot Sarah and Dustin’s The Club at the Strand wedding earlier this year they opted to not have an Engagement Session but instead have a Trash The Dress Session. So we packed up our equipment and headed to Fish Eating Creek in Palmdale, FL. Our first location was the old Florida Oak Tree hammock where we shot Dustin and Sarah sitting on limbs and fallen down trees.
Our next stop was a bit of a off road adventure, Linsey found an island that would be a perfect place if we could only get to it. Sarah agreed so we checked the water for Gators and waded across the swampy moat to a little island surrounded by cypress trees and cypress knees. We are so glad we had a couple willing to cross that water to get to this swamp… A true trash the dress dream location.

We were soon rain off by a spider the size of my hand, so we headed to the lake, our last trash the dress location. At first we shot around the canoes and in the grass but Sarah was satisfied with just getting the bottom of her dress wet. She said she was there to trash the dress and that is just want she wanted to do. Within a few minutes she jumped in the lake and was floating around. Hair wet, make-up smeared and still as pretty as when she arrived, Sarah is by far our bravest bride that we have shot. Thanks Sarah and Dustin for letting us capture your day and your fun photos as well.

Sara + Josh | Naples, FL Engagement Photography
A few days ago we received and email from Sara franticly looking for a photographer to shoot her Engagement Photo Session of her and her fiance Josh. The two were coming to Naples / Bonita Springs area for vacation and just got engaged a few day before. Sara thought that at Clam Pass in Naples would be the ideal location for the Engagement Photos.
Luckily we had some free time for the couple and set out to shoot there photos. We shot up and down the boardwalk and ended up down on the beach for the sunset.
Sara and Josh were natural infront of the camera, we really didn’t need to give them much guidance the pretty much played around and just were themselves, giggling and flirting with each other not even really paying much attention to us. These are the funniest Engagement session to photograph. Thanks you two and don’t forget we are willing to fly up to Cincinnati to shoot your wedding. 🙂

Sanibel Wedding Photographer | Island Inn, Sanibel, Florida
We were hired to photograph Monica and Amaury Marrero wedding on Sanibel Island at the Island Inn. This was a true DIY wedding, before the wedding the couple made the chair decorations, the Wedding arch and even found shells to hold the rings in. Everything put came together and created a wonderful atmosphere for their Sanibel sunset wedding.
