Capturing Love on Indian Rocks Beach

If you’re searching for a lovely venue on Indian Rocks Beach, look no further! The Holiday Inn and Suites Harbourside by IHG offers a stunning backdrop for your special day at great prices. As a Clearwater Beach wedding photographer, I am thrilled to share my experience with Nicole and Kyle, who chose True Love Photography to capture their unforgettable moments.

Here is a link to find out more about this beautiful venue: Holiday Inn Harbourside.

A Love Story Worth Telling

Nicole and Kyle discovered True Love Photography through Zola, an amazing online platform that helps couples find their perfect wedding vendors. Their love story is truly special. After 11 years together, they were finally ready to take the next step. Despite the challenges of a long-distance relationship—Nicole pursuing her PA degree in Neurology and Kyle working as a poker dealer—their bond only grew stronger.

Together, they rewired each other’s hearts, proving that sometimes, the greatest diagnosis is love itself—and the best deal is the one you never see coming.

Our Wedding Professionals Shine

It was an honor to be their photographer. I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to their lovely family, who decorated the venue beautifully and created a stunning cake adorned with the biggest doughnuts I have ever seen! A big thank you goes to Barnie, the catering director from Holiday Inn. I have had the pleasure of working with her many times over the years, and she always delivers exceptional service.

The entertainment was top-notch as well. Grant Hemmond DJ and their guest singer did an amazing job keeping the party lively. Here are a few sneak peeks from their already delivered full wedding gallery.
