GULF BREEZE AND PENSACOLA AREA WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER

My name is Cami Grudzinski and I'm a professional wedding photographer now located in Gulf Breeze, Florida. Serving Pensacola, Navarre, Destin, Gulf Shores and region.


Welcome to my website and thank you for stopping by!


I am a wedding, engagement and portrait photographer now based in Gulf Breeze, FL. My work has a distinct artistic flair. It is a beautiful mix of dramatic images, heartfelt portraits and real moments.


I am easy to work with, it is my pleasure to help you design a solid timeline to maximize your investment in photography and together create the most stunning and unique collection of all moments of your wedding day.


My clients come from all over the place. They are from a wide range of backgrounds and life paths, but they seem to have a few things in common - very easy going individuals that have a deep appreciation for photography or art in general. They are attracted to my work by its colors and lighting but I am thrilled to say that we usually end up becoming friends by the end of the process.



CAREER


I started my career at Disney, photographing over 500 families a day. I had the incredible opportunity to work and photograph in many different departments at Disney including Theme Parks, Marketing, Weddings and Events. At Disney I learned not only the importance of customer service but how to communicate with people from all backgrounds, all ages and all levels of energy and enthusiasm.


In 2013 I was brave enough to open this business and quiet rapidly I was able to leave the Parks. My business sky rocketed and in 2017 alone, I photographed 75 weddings.


My work has been awarded internationally, standing out against some of the best photographers in the World. In 2017 I was nominated one of the 30 top growing photographers in the world by a main photography publication, which was a huge honor.


I rapidly grew from competing in International Imaging competitions to judging it in 2018-19 - an extremely humbling experience, where I was able to finally start giving back to the industry that gave so much to me.


WEDDINGS


A question I get asked often is "why weddings?".


Weddings require sharp skills in all areas of photography plus amazing people skills. We, wedding photographers, are next to our couples from beginning to end and while all vendors have wrapped their work at the end of the wedding day, the imaging team is just getting started.


Besides the thrill of the wedding day, and the passion for the art of photography, to me weddings connect all dots. Being away from home has made me appreciate the love and family interactions from a different perspective. Images are the only thing that will stay with my couples forever. That is so unique and special.


I love meeting families, friends, paying attention to relationships, learning about people, and capturing couples, and them from my unique viewpoint. I love the beauty of it, hugs, loved ones reuniting, laughter. Nothing compares to weddings!


NOW IN GULF BREEZE - FL


Why Gulf Breeze? I never imagined my career in Photography would take off as it did. I was simply pursuing my passion and trying to raise my son as a single mom. Most of my clientele was fascinated by my sunset portraiture but the beaches were a far drive for me. I spend so much time on the road, time that I could be spending with my son.


I am so very thankful for Central Florida and all the opportunities but deep inside I knew I needed to change things and also seek a better education for him.


I decided to start researching for places to focus on his education, quality time, outdoors life, and hopefully still ideal for the business with less time on the road. Friends and fate pointed me to the direction of Gulf Breeze. It all fell into place as I am in absolute love with the area.


Gulf Breeze has extraordinary education, it is family oriented and with a slower pace that both him and I craved so much. It reminds me of home. A stunning and quiet coastal town with 4 seasons.


After hundreds of weddings around Orlando, Tampa, Saint Petersburg, Sarasota area I was extremely thankful but it is time to move on.


I am excited for this new journey and I am thrilled that something about my work has spoken to you! If you want to learn more about me contact me now!
