Miami Wedding Photographer | Vizcaya Museum and Gardens Wedding | Sabrina and Li

…what TB brides are saying…

“The first time that I met Tati was on August 22, 2019! As soon as I saw her in the lobby of the W Hotel in downtown, looking as chic as ever with 4 inch heels and donning a fedora hat, I just knew that we would hit it off LOL :) She was outwardly fab, and from our first conversation I immediately realized how inwardly passionate she was about photography. Talking to her that day and looking through her work, I was blown away with how incredibly talented she was, but equally impressed with how important her relationships with her clients are to her. As many others have said in their reviews, Tati is a true friend, professional, photographer fairy-godmother, and a genuinely kind and caring person. From our first engagement shoot, helping us cope through COVID plans and re-planning, our surprise 2nd engagement photo shoot, and our wedding day, our memories with Tati will last a lifetime and we will be forever grateful to her for everything she has done. Two days ago, we received our full wedding album and the way that Tati captured all of the many emotions we felt that day was amazing. The photos were elegant, timeless, beautiful, and inviting, just like Tati. I’ve been so pleased with our choice in our photographer that I have also recommended Tati to my family members and friends. Hands down, she is the person to pick to capture your life’s memorable moments and you will not be disappointed. Tati, thank you thank you thank you for everything!!”

Hi there, 

As a Miami wedding photographer, there are times when I want to give back for all the many blessings I have received in life. On May 25th 2021 I was able to do just that. Together, with a dream team of vendors, we gifted an elopement wedding to the most precious couple, Sabrina and Li. Months of planning filled with hours of hard work finally came together on this special day and my heart was moved. To see Sabrina and Li become husband and wife was a blessing in itself and one of the greatest gifts for everyone involved.

The Vizcaya Museum and Gardens, located in Miami, is a stunning site. It was the perfect spot for these best friends of twelve years to say their “I do’s”. It had everything they were looking for:  historical importance, beautiful and majestic architecture, magical landscapes, and bay front views.

The inspiration and theme behind this elopement was put together by Tasha Bracken and her team. Every detail was planned and perfectly executed. Sabrina was overwhelmed by the beauty this vendor team created.

Getting Ready

Sabrina’s wedding dress was a stunner. This mermaid style couture gown, with a short train and deep plunge neckline, featured crystal appliqués and ostrich feathers throughout, from the shoulders to the skirt. It was definitely not the type of dress Sabrina envisioned herself wearing, but once she tried it on, it fit like a glove and could not envision herself in anything else!

 First Look 

Since this was an elopement, Sabrina and Li were together from the time they began getting ready through the ceremony. Sabrina stated that she enjoyed that quite a lot because it felt like it brought an extra sense of intimacy between she and her future husband.  Although they saw each other while getting ready, we still did a first look. It was the moment Li saw Sabrina from afar in her gorgeous gown and veil. We roamed the outside of the stunning Vizcaya Museum and Gardens to capture portraits of Sabrina and Li.

The Ceremony Outside The Vizcaya Museum and Gardens

Sabrina told me that when she saw Li waiting for her at the altar with their officiant, she was flushed with so much excitement and fell in love all over again. Sabrina walked down the aisle to the man of her dreams to a live violinist who was playing the traditional wedding song. It was completely magical! Sabrina shared that her favorite moment of the day was during their ceremony. Being able to hone into their relationship and take it to the next step meant everything to her.  Their officiant, Michael J Calderin, had the most perfect words to bind their partnership.

After the ceremony we whisked the newlyweds away for portraits on the steps in front of the windows of Vizcaya. So in love, filled with joy and respect for each other, Sabrina was just in awe of the man she married.  Seeing him in his suit with the perfect breeze and weather was a moment she will never forget.
