You’d love to see Vanessa and Caton Joseph’s Lithia Acres Wedding! Nestled in the natural charm of Lithia, FL, Lithia Acres Barn offers the kind of scenery we absolutely love photographing: open fields, towering trees, and that golden Florida sunlight that makes every moment feel warm and cinematic. Weddings here have a peaceful, rustic–romantic feel, with nature providing the perfect backdrop before you even add décor. It’s the kind of venue that instantly slows the day down, allowing couples to be fully present, fully themselves, and fully surrounded by beauty.
Vanessa and Caton’s love story began in college just three years ago, and they’ve been inseparable ever since. Their first date: fireworks at Busch Gardens, set the tone for a relationship filled with adventure, shared laughter, and new experiences. They love traveling, playing games, watching shows together, and seeking out anything that brings joy and connection.
Their outdoor ceremony at Lithia Acres felt serene and intimate. Imagine vows shared beneath the open sky, the breeze moving gently through the trees, and soft natural light wrapping everything in a warm glow. It’s the kind of setting that feels both peaceful and deeply romantic.
Afterward, we captured portraits of Vanessa and Caton surrounded by lush greenery, with the evening sun casting that dreamy golden-hour radiance across every frame.
The celebration continued inside the venue’s ballroom, where the reception took on a lively, joy-filled energy. With its warm lighting, inviting layout, and rustic elegance, the space created the perfect atmosphere for heartfelt toasts, laughter, and dancing, the kind of night guests remember long after it’s over.
Couples love choosing Lithia Acres because it offers the best of both worlds: wide-open outdoor beauty for ceremonies and portraits, paired with a welcoming indoor reception space that keeps the celebration flowing comfortably into the evening.

Tampa Wedding Photographers
As Tampa wedding photographers, we believe every celebration along Florida’s Gulf Coast deserves to be documented with intention, artistry, and heart. Tampa offers a beautiful range of backdrops, from oak-lined parks and waterfront sunsets to elegant ballrooms and rustic estates, and we love creating photographs that blend the natural beauty of the area with the authentic emotions of your day. Our approach is warm, unobtrusive, and storytelling-driven. We focus on the quiet in-between moments just as much as the big ones: a soft glance during your vows, the way your hands meet during portraits, or the excitement shared with family and friends.
Whether your wedding is intimate or grand, indoors or outdoors, we aim to capture it in a way that feels true to who you are. We prioritize natural light, clean composition, and genuine expression so that the images you receive don’t just document your wedding, they reflect the love and connection at its core. Years from now, we want you to open your gallery and feel the same joy, beauty, and movement of the day all over again. That’s the heart behind everything we do at Original Weddings.

From the golden Florida light to the meaningful interactions with loved ones, every frame is shaped to honor the heart of your day. At Original Weddings, your story becomes a film you’ll treasure for decades.
