What is A Pen for Pearl?  A diary of sorts...a photography journal. 



A Pen for Pearl is dedicated to my grandmother, Gloria Pearl, in honor of her

faithfulness to handwritten letters and her love for the beautiful things in life.  

May her legacy be carried on through my journal as I correspond

regularly with you, always remembering the beauty that surrounds us.



I am a Tampa wedding photographer, and I specialize in capturing natural,

personal, romantic images.  I shoot primarily with film...a timeless medium.  I

would love for you to visit A Pen for Pearl frequently!  Consider it an

invitation to sit with me on my patio, enjoy a home brewed latte, and

browse through a handful of photographs together...

~Care for a Latte?~

Dear Friends, Have I mentioned my love for antiques? Several weeks ago, while meandering through one of my favorite antique stores, I found myself swooning over this Theodore Haviland china…circa 1860, from Limoges, France. I now enjoy my morning lattes with an extra touch of French class. There is something so special about holding a...
