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...

Christina and Pete on Style Me Pretty

The photograph that I am sharing with you today is one of my favorites from Christina and Pete’s wedding ceremony. I especially enjoy the detail of the shadows, the cross in particular. It was a beautiful ceremony.

Photographers, this shot was from a Nikon F100, 80-200mm f2.8 lens, at about 80mm, wide open at 2.8. Hand held around 1/60. Ilford 3200 film stock, rated at 1600, metered to the shadow. Processed and scanned by Richard Photo Lab…I love the way they handle black and white film!

xoxo,
Gina Leigh

Christina - This photo exudes regal elegance to me... beautiful, stunning, classic. I must confess I didn't even notice the shadows till I read your post :) Too absorbed in the other details I guess...
