It all goes by in a blur!
Erin VEstal Photography
FOR FAMILIES LIVING AND PLAYING IN ST PETERSBURG, FL
You want to be fully present on your wedding day— not pulled away for hours of posed photos.
You’ve put so much heart into planning a day that reflects you. You want to spend it holding hands, hugging loved ones, laughing at the speeches, and dancing barefoot at sunset—not reenacting a first kiss or missing cocktail hour for a marathon of portraits.
I get it—because I’ve seen it.
Capture the feeling
That’s why I work with every couple to build a photography timeline that supports your vision. We’ll plan ahead with intention, so that on your wedding day, you can let go and be present. I’ll guide you gently when needed, then step back so the real moments can unfold—honest, emotional, and entirely your own.
Because when you look back at these images, I want you to remember how it felt.
Honest, heartfelt coverage of the day your marriage begins
This day isn’t just about beautiful portraits (though we’ll absolutely get those).
It’s about the big emotions, the quiet moments, and the celebration you’ve dreamed of—surrounded by your favorite people.
Whether you’re planning a small beach ceremony or a full-day wedding in the heart of St. Pete, your photography should feel like you. No stiff poses, no performative timelines—just natural, artful documentation of your love story as it truly unfolds.
I’ll guide you with calm, experienced support, and make sure your photography coverage celebrates your priorities, honors your relationships, and preserves every moment you want to hold onto forever.
A wedding photography experience that reflects you
Your love story is one of a kind—and your wedding photography should feel just as personal.
From our first conversation to the final gallery, everything is built around your day, your people, and the moments you want to remember most.
Tailored-to-you coverage
No two weddings are the same—and your photography coverage shouldn’t be either. Instead of asking you to squeeze into a preset package, we’ll build your coverage together based on what matters most to you. Whether it’s a one-hour beach ceremony or a full day of celebration, you’ll get exactly what you need (and nothing you don’t).
Emotion-first storytelling
The best moments can’t be staged—and they shouldn’t have to be. My approach is grounded in real connection and honest storytelling, so your gallery reflects the true energy of your day. The happy tears, the deep belly laughs, the hugs that last a little longer—I’ll be there for all of it, quietly documenting it as it unfolds.
Timelines that prioritize your people
You’re not planning this day just for the photos. You’re planning it to be surrounded by the people you love most. That’s why we’ll build a timeline that honors that—minimizing time away from your celebration and making space for both stunning portraits and meaningful time with your guests.
Let’s tell the story of your wedding day—honestly, beautifully, and in a way that feels like you.
We’ll create a photography plan that’s tailored to your day, your people, and the moments you want to hold onto forever.

Not sure how much coverage you need?
You don’t have to have it all figured out before reaching out.
So many couples feel like they need all the answers before they can even inquire—how many hours, when portraits should happen, whether they need a second shooter… sometimes before they even know what time dinner’s being served.
That’s exactly what the consultation is for.
We’ll talk through your day, your priorities, and how you want it all to feel—then build a photography plan that fits just right. No pressure. No rushing. Just calm, expert guidance and a plan that supports the experience you actually want to have.
From digital to tangible
Because your images deserve more than just screen time
Frequently asked questions
Wondering what to expect? You’re not alone. Answers to the most common questions I get from couples like you:
Still got a question? Get in touchDo you travel for weddings?
I’m based in St. Pete and photograph weddings throughout the Tampa Bay area.
I also travel for weddings in Crow Wing County, MN.
Can we add on an engagement session?
Absolutely! Many couples choose to include an engagement session so we can connect and get comfortable together before the wedding day. You’re also welcome to add on anniversary sessions, albums, or even rehearsal dinner coverage if you’d like to extend the story.
When will we get our photos back?
Your fully edited wedding gallery will be delivered within six weeks of your big day. You’ll receive a private online gallery where you can view, download, share, and relive all the moments (and tears and laughter) again and again.
What if we don’t know how many hours we need?
Totally normal—and very common! I’ll help you figure that out. During our consultation, we’ll talk through your timeline, priorities, and the flow of your day so you can feel confident in your coverage from the very beginning.
How do we book?
Start by reaching out to check if your date is available! From there, we’ll schedule a complimentary consultation call where I’ll learn more about your vision and walk you through creating a custom photography plan that fits your day perfectly. Once you’ve chosen your coverage, a signed agreement and retainer officially reserve your date.
