For Catholic couples in the Tampa area, we compiled a list of the most stunning places for wedding photos. From Catholic churches to nearby event venues, here are the best places to take wedding photos in Tampa, Florida.
Best Catholic Churches to Take Wedding Photos in Tampa
St. Stephen Catholic Church—Tampa, FL
Thanks to its high ceilings and abundance of light, St. Stephen Catholic Church in Tampa helps produce a beautiful, bright photo gallery for couples.
This church is also a 25-minute drive from the Henry B. Plant museum, where we captured a couple’s portraits after mass. The unique building, rich with historical architecture, made for a charming final gallery.
Sacred Heart—Tampa, FL
Sacred Heart Catholic Church is a gorgeous cathedral-style church located in downtown Tampa. Any couple hoping for dramatic wedding photos with european-inspired architecture should take a look at this parish.
St. Mark the Evangelist Catholic Church—Tampa, FL
We had so much fun capturing Alexa and Joseph’s wedding at St. Mark the Evangelist Catholic Church. Located just 20 minutes from the University of South Florida, it was the perfect location for the bride and groom, who were USF students at the time!
Our Lady of Lourdes—Dunedin, FL
This Catholic Church in the Tampa area had the perfect little room for couples to share a private first look, prayer, or moment with each other before the wedding mass.
One charming perk of a wedding at Our Lady of Lourdes is its proximity to the Jolly Trolley service that runs throughout the Dunedin and Clearwater area. The vintage trolley instantly sets a classy, charming mood for wedding photos.
The Chapel of the Holy Cross at Jesuit High School—Tampa, FL
This private college preparatory school in Tampa houses an incredible chapel at its campus’ center. Although the school itself is more than 120 years old, The Chapel of the Holy Cross was completed in 2018 to accommodate its growing student body. The chapel displays artwork from Spanish artist, Raul Berzosa, and sculptor, Cody Swanson. The artwork throughout the church features St. Ignatius, St. Francis Xavier, and more. A new stained glass installment only adds more sacred beauty to wedding photos taken here.
St. Paul’s Catholic Church—St. Petersburg, FL
St. Paul’s Catholic Church has no shortage of natural light, thanks to the bright stained-glass windows throughout. The gardens around the church also make excellent backdrops for wedding photos before the ceremony!
St. Catherine of Sienna Catholic Church—Clearwater, FL
At St. Catherine of Sienna Catholic Church, the natural light entering the building is absolutely stunning. More natural light allows the photographer’s equipment to capture more color and detail without sacrificing photo quality in post-production edits. Thanks to the large windows situated behind the altar, wedding photos easily look and feel brighter.
