At CeceTay Productions, engagement sessions arenโ€™t just photo shoots.

Theyโ€™re fully curated experiences.

I donโ€™t believe in shortcuts. I donโ€™t believe in rushing love. And I definitely donโ€™t believe in doing anything halfway. When you book with me, youโ€™re not just hiring a photographer, youโ€™re stepping into a cinematic production where YOU are the stars

This five hour engagement session across Tampa was the perfect example of what CELEBRITY STATUS at CeceTay Productions really looks like.

๐ŸŽฌ Act I: Ybor City

CENTENNIAL PARK

We began the day in Ybor City at Centennial Park, surrounded by historic brick, palm trees, and timeless charm. She wore a stunning orange dress, bold and radiant, instantly commanding attention against the warm textures of Ybor.

This chapter was vibrant, playful, and intimate. Raichel & Drakeโ€™s laughter filling the park, hands intertwined, moments flowing naturally as I directed them like a scene from a movie. 

Rain didnโ€™t slow us down, clear umbrellas turned a Florida sun shower into cinematic romance. The bouquet she held was custom made by me, CeceTay Productions created exclusively for this session.

๐Ÿš‹ Act II: The Trolley 

TRAVEL FROM YBOR TO DOWNTOWN 

From Ybor, we hopped on the trolley to downtown and back. Quite the journey, But even the commute became part of the story.

Outfit change? Naturally.

She transitioned into a classic short white dress paired with a sheer long white scarf, effortlessly elegant as the trolley rolled through Tampa. The motion, the wind, the candid glances. This portion felt nostalgic, cinematic, and editorial all at once.

๐ŸŒ‡ Act III: Curtis Hixon Park & The Riverwalk 

GOLDEN DARKNESS HOUR 

As the sun began to dip, we arrived at Curtis Hixon Park, walking along the Riverwalk during golden hour. The city glowed. The water reflected the light. The mood softened.

Here, she wore a white top with a silver skirt, an elevated, modern look that photographed beautifully against the skyline and river. This outfit wasnโ€™t an afterthought, I brought it with me, along with multiple outfit options, so she could choose what felt best in the moment.

Thatโ€™s the CeceTay difference. I step in as your director, stylist, and glam support. Anticipating what you need before you even ask. If itโ€™s part of the vision, CeceTay delivers.

๐ŸŒ™ Act IV: Nighttime Picnic

ROMANCE UNDER THE TREES

As night fell, we shifted into a more intimate scene, a romantic picnic under the trees.

Raichel changed into a long floral dress, soft and dreamy, perfectly suited for this chapter.

While Raichel and Drake and I captured photos and video along the Riverwalk, my assistant was preparing a romantic picnic beneath the trees. I brought a sheet and sheer draping to create a soft, intimate space. 

Creating not just a setup, but an atmosphere where storytelling and emotion layered together. Quiet moments. Close embraces. A pause in time.

๐ŸŽฅ Final Act: Tampa Theatre 

OLD HOLLYWOOD ENERGY

We closed the night with iconic nighttime photos in front of the Tampa Theatre, glowing lights, vintage architecture, and undeniable main character energy.

For this final look, she wore the same short white dress, timeless and striking, the perfect contrast against the theaterโ€™s dramatic backdrop. The result? Old Hollywood romance meets modern love story.

โญ Above & Beyond Isnโ€™t Extra

ITโ€™S THE STANDARD 

I styled outfits and brought wardrobe options.

I designed and brought the bouquet.

I packed my 3 clear aesthetic umbrellas.

I touched up hair and makeup.

I mapped locations, timing, lighting, and transitions.

I brought my girl, aka my assistant! โ€˜Cause a production takes a village!! 

When you book CeceTay Productions, you donโ€™t get a basic session, you get a fully produced full spectrum experience.

Nothing is half assed.

Everything is intentional.

And you are treated like a movie star from start to finish. BECAUSE YOU ARE THE KING AND THE QUEEN OF YOUR LIFE, BABE! 

This is why itโ€™s called CeceTay Productions, because every love story deserves to feel like a film.

๐ŸŽฌโœจ love you Queens & Kings, SLAY THE BOOTS HOUSE DOWN! LETS GET THESE TWO MARRIED! ๐Ÿ˜˜
