I’m super inspired by the romanticism of old Floridian style. I’ve been calling my personal look “French Palm Beach” for years so when I had the chance to capture this darling afternoon, my heart sang. Stay tuned for more home updates and pretty coastal inspired weddings to come. Credits Photographer- @kir2benDesigner – Pamela Barefoot Events […]

Palm Beach Inspired Wedding in Amelia Island | Antiquated Romance | South Florida Weddings | The Hybrid Co 

After nearly 8 years as a wedding photographer, it’s rare that I share an experience that fundamentally changes the way I do my job. That said, I think we are all perpetual students; there’s always something to learn and some way to grow. 🤍 So much can be said without speaking and that reminder was […]

We had been planning this engagement for over a year now! Once COVID hit, we weren’t quite sure if we were going to be able to make Irene and Matthews engagement dreams come true. These two were debating between getting married in FL or DC so I just knew we were the perfect match! Since […]

It’s hard to put into words how I feel about these photos. I’ve known this groom for over 20 years! Yup, you read that correctly. We met in middle school at St Josephs and have been friends ever since. I finally met Taylor at a friend’s wedding and instantly fell in love. She’s down to […]

South Florida Wedding Venues | Best Florida Wedding Locations | FL Wedding Photographer Kir Tuben

Can you even believe this first photo!? This was actually before their ceremony! Tatiana threw off her shoes and walked across these stones just moments before their nuptials. This is exactly the type of couple Tatiana and Damien are: easy going, up for adventure and tackling anything thrown their way, together. Life can bring you […]

Sundy House Wedding | Delray Beach Wedding Photographer Kir Tuben | Tatiana and Damien

It’s a little surreal to be posting this because I have actually known this bride for over a decade. Devin and I used to swim together and “grew up” on Atlantic Ave, a street that runs through Delray Beach. I was over the moon when she got engaged and couldn’t wait to meet Colin. I first got to hang out with them both on the beach in swimsuits for their engagement session and got to know their goofy fun-loving relationship then and got a sneak into what wedding day was going to be like: a low key affair filled with sarcasm and beers.

South Florida Wedding | Naples Florida Spring Wedding | Devin and Colin

I have known this bride to be for about 15 years and counting. Devin and I grew up swimming together in South Florida and were very much girls that grew up around Delray Beach. We would see each other on the pool deck and on the Ave as teens so it is CRAZY to me that she is getting married!! Colin makes her so insanely happy and he was just a trooper for this beach engagement sessions!

Boca Raton Engagement Session | Florida Wedding Photographer Kir Tuben | Devin + Colin

Abbey & William planned a trip to South Florida to celebrate their one year anniversary. We actually snapped these portraits on the exact day these two got hitched one year ago! When deciding where to have their session, Abbey knew she wanted a few beach snaps but some classic South Florida backdrops as well. I suggested Worth Avenue and it seemed like the perfect match!

Worth Avenue Engagement Session | Palm Beach Florida Wedding Photographer | Abbey and William

I feel like I can’t even find the words to write this properly. Katie was my first friend I made after my parents divorced and my mom moved us to South Florida. I was the quite girl who talked to her cat and liked Jewel and Katie was my loud next door neighbor who did gymnastics, loved to play capture the flag and seemed to talk to everyone. We became best friends all through middle school and high school even though we never actually went to school together and I ended up moving houses nearly every 2 years. We then ended up going to college 20 minutes away from one another in North Carolina and have seen each other through various boyfriends, all sorts of pets, quitting sports, moving jobs and now getting married.
