Downtown Fort Myers Wedding – Photography on Sanibel Beach

The Downtown Fort Myers Florida River District is such a great spot for wedding photography! Numerous historic venues like the Burroughs Home, Heitman House, Edison and Ford estates and The Veranda are all great wedding locations. Plus, with the new Hotel Indigo, there’s plenty of room for out of town guests to stay in the heart of the city.

Ania and Matt had an intimate destination wedding in Downtown Ft. Myers. So intimate, we did not meet up with them until we photographed their nuptial celebration on Sanibel Island! Leap Year Photography is blessed to take part in all kinds of weddings — big celebrations with hundreds of guests, to small affairs, like Ania and Matt’s, where it’s just the Bride, Groom and the Sanibel beach. We weren’t sure that we wouldn’t be rained out, but I think you’ll see from the photos below, it was very picturesque day – having great subjects didn’t hurt either!

Downtown Fort Myers Photography – Alyssa’s Senior Shoot!

We love to photograph in the Historic Downtown Fort Myers area. Between the Edison Festival of Lights parade, festivals at Centennial Park, and Harborside Fairs, Downtown Fort Myers has been the place to be! It doesn’t hurt that we live just a few miles away. :)

Our most recent Downtown Ft Myers photography session was Alyssa’s Senior Shoot. Check out some of our favs!

Thomas A Edison Congregational Church – Fort Myers Burroughs Home Wedding

Georgia and Kyle’s Wedding and reception in true Historic Fort Myers Style!

The wedding ceremony was held at the Thomas A. Edison Congregational Church. The church, also called “The Little Church Around The Corner”, is just around the corner from Historic Edison Home. What really makes a Church though is not the building — it’s the people. And Georgia, Kyle, their Family and Friends really made this little church come to life!

As if the historic wedding location was not enough, Georgia and Kyle had a 1957 Cadillac Fleetwood to wheel them around in classic style.

Closing out the festivities, the wedding reception took place at the Fort Myers Burroughs Home on 1st Street. The Burroughs Home, built in 1901, is just across the street from the Langford-Kingston Home build in 1919. Just a few doors down is the Heitman House, built in 1908. This truly is the heart of Historic Downtown Fort Myers. Overlooking the Caloosahatchee River and a few blocks from the Old Federal Courthouse, their reception was truly in Old Florida Style!

Congratulations Georgia and Kyle — it was a privilege to be your Fort Myers wedding photographers!
