It was such a pleasure to have Tania at Clear Skies Photography shoot our wedding! She is so professional and really listened to us on what we wanted. Her images are so bright and happy! We love them and loved working with Tania! I highly recommend Clear Skies Photography!

My husband and I absolutely loved working with Tania! She is incredibly nice and easy going. We did an engagement shoot with her in St. Augustine and we were married at the beach and she is just so creative. My husband is certainly not someone who gets excited for standing around for any amount of time for pictures, but she helped him feel comfortable and the sneak preview shots she posted for us to view were absolutely beautiful. We could not have been any happier with our experience with her, I will be calling her in the future (not near) when we are ready for pictures of our children. I would recommend Tania to every bride I know.

Tania is an amazing photographer who truly captured our personalities in our photos...she took the time to listen and asked a lot of questions prior to the wedding so that she knew exactly what we wanted. Our photos are absolutely breathtaking! Tania is so creative and really fun to work with, she makes you feel so at ease.

Tania took amazing care of us from the first time I contacted her. She always responded to every email, and frantic phone call. Her very affordable engagement session gave us the opportunity to see how talented she really is, and to rest assured she has got such a knack for putting her "models" at ease. She is so fun to work with, but was also so unobtrusive at our wedding. I was amazed to see how many little moments she caught without ever pulling us away from our celebration. The best part is--her work product is second to none. Every single one of our photos is an absolute work of art. We get compliments from everyone who sees them. Other brides are constantly telling me what a fortune they spent on their photos and how much better mine are. Tania's work cannot be beaten at any price, but she keeps her rates fair. I can't say enough about her. :)

Tania at clear skies photography was a DREAM come true. She is super sweet, amazingly professional, and her pictures were FLAWLESS. She truly captured the special moments at my wedding, and was absolutely willing to work with me on pricing of the packages, what I wanted included, and the style we were going for. I would absolutely 150% recommend her for any event you want captured on film, and I will definitely be going back to her for my future photography needs. You won't regret booking Clear Skies!

We can't say enough great things about Tania! We had a destination wedding and picked Tania because her photos on her website looked fantastic. We met her 3 days before our wedding for engagement photos on the beach. She was covered in water and sand by the end of the session to make sure she got the perfect shot. On the day of our wedding, she was early, calm, and catered to the quirks of us and our guests. You can trust our comments because I had never met Tania before our wedding event and would use her again in a heartbeat.

Words can’t express how thankful we are for everything Tania did to make our wedding day so special. Tania has been a friend of mine for years now and as soon as we got engaged I knew I wanted her to be our photographer. I always knew how talented she was but of course she went above and beyond my expectations. Our wedding photos turned out absolutely amazing and better than I could ever imagine. My friends and family are still talking about how beautiful they are. She truly loves what she does and is extremely talented as seen in every moment she captures. Tania I can’t thank you enough for being a great friend and giving me photos that I will cherish for a lifetime. Thank you so very much!!! We love you!Jeremy and Tiffany

Tania is so awesome. We found her after looking through literally hundreds of photographs by tons of photographers in Northern Florida. After looking at her website, my husband (then-boyfriend!) and I both knew she was the right choice. The pictures on her website really captured the happiness and fun-loving spirit we want to bring to our wedding. When I talked to her on the phone the first time I was immediately drawn to her enthusiasm and her excitement for her job. She clearly wanted to help us create great wedding pictures, but she also wanted to make sure we had a fabulous wedding. She offered to give us any advice we needed about Northern Florida because she knew we were not locals. When we first met her on the beach (at 6 am!) for our engagement session, we knew we had picked the right photographer. She was all smiles (despite the earlier hour) and we could tell that she wanted the pictures to be perfect for us. She clearly has a vision for her photos, but she also asked our opinions and she wanted to make sure she was getting the shots we wanted. And she did. We love the photos!The day after the engagement session, she shot our wedding. Everyone at the wedding was impressed with her enthusiasm. She was very personable and she immediately put people at ease. During the wedding and reception, she made sure she captured all of the important moments, but she also got a lot of great candid shots. The photos she took and the video she made of them really capture the mood of the wedding. We have received tons of compliments on the photos and we are very happy!We would recommend Tania to anyone.Thanks Tania!

Tania was an absolute joy to work with. I had a relatively short time to plan my wedding and Tania was flexible in every single way. From the start she made me comfortable and more importantly, the photography on the day of the event was non-invasive. My now husband was very leary of the amount of time we would spend away from our guests taking pictures and he too was very impressed. I recommend Clear Skies Photography to anyone I can. The pictures were even better than I had hoped and I am even hiring her to take pictures of our new arrival this year!

We could not be happier with Tania! She was friendly and outgoing and made us feel comfortable during our photos. The pictures came out perfect! I am thrilled with every aspect of Clear Skies! We'll be using her when we have our first baby....hopefully soon! Thanks for making our memories as perfect as can be!

Tania was able to capture the essence of our small and intimate wedding. She knew when and where to take our photos without disturbing our special moments. She's also very responsive to any question I had, which I had a lot of since we planned the wedding from two different states. She's very easygoing, friendly and pleasant :) Please don't hesitate to consider her as a photographer for your wedding.

When I began interviewing wedding photographers, this was an actual, word-for-word response I received from one:"I'd recommend against having the ceremony in the base chapel. It's pretty old, unattractive, and has *really* bad lighting. We shot there last weekend and it was a real struggle to get anything decent." - anonymous Jacksonville photographer Seriously, what did he want us to do? Move our wedding for him? LOL! As a TV reporter and anchor, I know that the sign of a truly talented video or still photographer is someone who can capture light. Any photographer who takes only black and white pictures is hiding their lack of understanding for lighting, one of the most basic but most important concepts. Tania's pictures don't have to be retouched and they don't have to be color-corrected. They look beautiful from the moment she snaps them (I know, because I looked at several of them straight from her camera screen). All you have to do is look at her pictures to know her use of color is incredible, her ability to capture moments is astounding, and the way she conceptualizes the art of a photo is remarkable. She is so versatile, capturing classic, elegant moments with the same skill as the hilarious, fun ones. On top of all that, she was a breeze to work with. My husband, who is VERY camera-shy, was comfortable in seconds with Tania, and he couldn't stop looking at the pictures when we received them. (Which, I should also add, was VERY quickly. Some wedding photographers will take months to get your pictures back to you!) Your big day only happens once. If you get your pictures back and they aren't what you wanted or they don't capture all of the details and moments, there's no do-over. So make sure it's done right the first time. Tania even does a complimentary engagement shoot (which could cost hundreds of dollars by itself!) so that you can see her style and she can learn yours BEFORE your big day. If you want a wedding photographer who is professional, talented and affordable, Tania is the only way to go. Thank you, Tania, for giving us the wedding photos I had imagined. P.S. Our (color!) photos from inside the chapel were incredible. Instead of looking for its flaws, Tania found the chapel's charm and beauty.

Tania at Clear Skies is an amazing photographer. She is easy to work with and she listens to her clients. My husband and I (and all of my family) were beyond impressed with the photos from the wedding, and the engagement shoot. If you like candid shots that really capture the emotions of your wedding day, Tania is the photographer for you!

Tania of Clear Skies photography was the perfect person to photograph our wedding day. Tania is all about unscripted, casual photography which fit our style perfectly. She really made our wedding day extra special. Working with Tania was more akin to working with family then simply hiring some one to go through the motions. She seemed to really care that we were taken care of and it shows in the photos! Tania really went out of her way from driving us around, to taking us to multiple locations and making them work! From a business side she was totally professional and easy to work with. All correspondence was followed up on promptly, she called to confirm a few days before and the day before as well. She arrived early and I am pretty sure stayed beyond the time period we had hired her for. I would highly recommend Tania and Clear Skies photography for any occasion.

Tania is an amazing photographer. Her unique style and ability to capture 'in the moment' pictures made our pictures truly special. We would recommend her to anyone looking for wedding pictures that are true to life, and not posed!

Tania from Clear Skies Photography was a pleasure to work with. We made last minute plans to have a small wedding ceremony in Amelia Island, FL. With very little time, Tania got to know us and the type of photos we were looking for. We couldn't be happier with our outcome. She captured our day perfectly: special but casual. She made everyone in our wedding party feel at ease, which further enhanced the naturalness of the photos.

Tania is an incredible photographer and an amazing person. She is extremely professional, and incredibly responsive. As my husband and I were unable to schedule an engagement photo session, she offered to attend our rehearsal dinner and document the even for us. On the day of the wedding, Tania helped me me relax and took absolutely amazing photos. I just saw all of the pictures of our wedding, and loved all of the photos! it is hard for me to say whether I have a favorite at this point. Tania captured a very special moment in our lives beautifully. I also have to say that as Tania was very easy to communicate via email, and telephone. This was very important for us, as we planned our wedding from out of state.
