Downtown Fort Myers Wedding – Photography on Sanibel Beach

Erin — Fri, 11 Jun 2010 17:53:50 +0000

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!

Pink Shell Resort Fort Myers Beach Weddings

Erin — Mon, 31 May 2010 14:07:53 +0000

As a Fort Myers Photographer I’m frequently asked what my favorite venues are for weddings in the Ft Myers area. The Pink Shell Beach Resort and Spa certainly is on the top of my list! The Pink Shell’s beach location provides a very picturesque wedding setting all photographers would love. Not only that, they have fantastic staff and other amenities that make it a great location for a destination wedding. As a Bride you’ll appreciate that the Pink Shell has a dedicated coordinator, like Dony Bruder, for every wedding. We especially liked that Dony coordinated in a ‘photography mindful’ way as well, checking in with us on the time-line of the day frequently.

Without further adieu, some of our favorite photos from Rachel and Adam’s Wedding:

The Pink Shell Resort and Spa is located at 275 Estero Boulevard, Fort Myers Beach, FL 33931.

Wedding Photography from the Sundial Resort and The Dunes Sanibel Island

Scott — Sat, 27 Mar 2010 22:45:12 +0000

Anne and Matt’s wedding photography from Sundial Beach & Golf Resort on Sanibel Island, with their reception at the The Dunes Golf Resort, also on Sanibel Island.

To say, as photographers, we’ve been blessed with good weather for our wedding photography would be an understatement. We’ve only had one wedding that had to move to an alternate inside location because of rain. However, we thought Anne and Matt were going to be the second Bride and Groom to have a rain out. It was raining all morning, but, as if it was planned, about an hour before the wedding, the sun came out!

Perhaps part one of the reasons the Sundial Resort was voted “Best of The Knot Weddings in 2010″ was due to how flexible their staff was. The Pear Whelk Beach wedding ceremony location was not set up due to the rain but, the Sundial Resort (with the help of some guests) quickly had everything in place, just in time!

The Sundial Beach & Golf Resort is located at 1451 Middle Gulf Drive, Sanibel Island, Florida 33957.

While The Dunes has an 18-hole championship golf course, the focus this night was on Anne and Matt’s wedding reception in the Rassa restaurant. It was clear to this photographer that all their friends and family had a great time from the wedding dance to the cake cutting. And their cake didn’t just look good — it was delicious! We usually stick to the photography and don’t have cake, but when we heard it was from Mason’s Bakery we couldn’t resist!

The Dunes Golf & Tennis Club is located at 949 Sand Castle Road, Sanibel Island, Florida 33957.

Fort Myers Beach Wedding Photographer at Bowditch Point

Scott — Sun, 03 Jan 2010 19:58:52 +0000

Doug and Danielle had a beautiful wedding on Fort Myers Beach at Bowditch Point Park! I’m sure photographers say this about all their clients, but D&D truly were one of the nicest clients we’ve worked with. Their love and emotion for each other was clear and we were honored to be a part of their wedding day.

It’s funny that no matter how many times we photograph weddings on Ft Myers Beach, there is always another great venue or location that the area has to offer. Bowditch Point is the perfect setting for an intimate ceremony, just down the road from the Pink Shell Resort and not too many people. It’s also a great beach for the sunset, which as you can see below, certainly delivered for D&D’s wedding.

Are you planing a wedding at Bowditch Point Park, the Pink Shell Resort or any of the great venues on Fort Myers Beach? If yes, contact Erin of Leap Year Photography to capture your special day in South Florida!

Wedding at the Pink Shell Resort and Spa Fort Myers

Scott — Sun, 20 Sep 2009 23:06:52 +0000

The Pink Shell Beach Resort and Spa certainly has a fantastic tropical setting for wedding ceremonies on Fort Myers Beach. With their large Ballrooms, on-site services and helpful staff its also a great place for your wedding reception as well. Add in plenty of rooms for your guests and we can see why the Pink Shell is a popular place for destination weddings in southwest Florida. We’re happy to say it’s wedding photographer friendly as well.

We recently had the pleasure of photographing Jessica and Vince’s wedding and reception at the Pink Shell. For most weddings, the Bride is the star of the show with the Groom looking good, but in no comparison to the Bride. For this wedding Vince, in his United States Marine Corps Dress Blues, gave Jessica a run for her money. In the end though, Jessica still out-shined everyone, including Vince…

The Pink Shell Resort and Spa, located at 275 Estero Boulevard, Fort Myers Beach, FL 33931, has a variety of wedding and receptions options. The Lido Grand and Captiva Ballroom provide more formal wedding settings. While their signature lagoon-style “Octopool” waterfall and Bongo’s or Jojo’s restaurant provide a more tropical setting at the Pink Shell. Perhaps the best setting is their 1,500 feet of white-sugar sand beaches.

If you are considering the Pink Shell as your wedding venue, please contact Leap Year Photography to photograph your wedding day. Leap Year Photography’s Fort Myers Photographers will provide personalized coverage to suite your Wedding Photography needs at the Pink Shell on Fort Myers Beach.

Fort Myers Beach Wedding Photography – Terri and Jeff

Scott — Thu, 14 May 2009 00:59:54 +0000

We’ve provided photography for many weddings on Fort Myers Beach. However, Terri and Jeff’s wedding was the first time we photographed the Bride and Groom in the surf during the ceremony! I must say, I was a little nervous during the exchanging of the rings. There would be no second take if a ring was dropped… but my fears were unfounded and their wedding was flawless.

Terri and Jeff’s wedding was on Ft Myers Beach just across the street from the Beach United Methodist Church.

Meghan and Brian’s Sanibel Harbour Resort Wedding

Scott — Fri, 03 Apr 2009 03:36:22 +0000

We had a great time photographing Meghan and Brian’s wedding at the Sanibel Harbour Resort.

We already knew that it’s a great place for a relaxing weekend, but just recently we discovered what many Couples already know – Sanibel Harbour is a great place for a destination wedding!

Kelly and Grant’s Captiva Wedding Photography at ‘Tween Waters

Scott — Fri, 13 Mar 2009 20:30:25 +0000

Captiva Weddings don’t get any better than at ‘Tween Waters, and Kelly and Grant’s wedding was no exception.

From the beautiful beach ceremony, fantastic sunset, reception at the Wakefield Room, and after hours party at the Crow’s Nest – it was a great celebration!

Congratulations Kelly and Grant – it was our pleasure to be your photographers!
