Every Frame Tells
Your Story.

Your wedding day is a single, irreplaceable day — and every detail deserves to be preserved as beautifully as you envisioned it. At Canon Moment Photography, we approach Gainesville weddings with intention, invisibility when it matters, and an instinct for the moments that happen between the posed ones.

We've worked at the Hippodrome Theatre, the Hilton UF Conference Center, the Phillips Center, the Cade Museum, the Sweetwater Branch Inn, and the Wooly — and dozens of private venues, country clubs, and waterfront estates throughout Alachua County. We scout your venue in advance, coordinate with your other vendors, and arrive with a plan — so when the light is perfect and the emotion is real, we're already in position.

27 five-star reviews. Weddings across Gainesville, Newberry, Alachua, High Springs, and North Central Florida, and beyond. Gallery delivered in 2–3 weeks — every photo edited, full resolution. Second photographer included in every full-day package.

Iconic Gainesville
Wedding Venues

01
Resort & Hotel Weddings

From oceanfront ballrooms to historic boutique hotels, we know how to work the indoor-outdoor flow of Gainesville's top resort venues. We've documented weddings at downtown Gainesville and beyond.

02
Garden & Outdoor Estates

Private estates, botanical gardens, and waterfront properties across Alachua County — we know the golden-hour windows and the best portrait spots at each venue we work.

Beach & Waterfront

Sunrise ceremonies, sunset receptions, and everything in between. We light the speeches when the sun goes down and capture every wave-blown veil moment.

Private clubs and historic estates across Alachua County. We coordinate with venue planners weeks in advance — so day-of, everyone already knows the timeline.

05
Intimate Elopements

Just the two of you and a witness, or a guest list under 30. We bring the same cinematic eye to small ceremonies — no posing, no awkwardness, just real moments.

Common Questions

Everything You Need to Know
Before Booking

How far in advance should I book my Gainesville wedding photographer?
For peak season (October–April) we recommend booking 6–12 months in advance. Summer and weekday weddings have more availability. Popular Gainesville dates go fast — once your date is set, reach out immediately.
Is a second photographer included?
Yes — a second photographer is included in The Forever (full-day) package at no extra cost. For the Half Day package, a second shooter can be added for $300. Two photographers means we capture both partners getting ready simultaneously, and catch every angle during the ceremony.
When will we receive our wedding photos?
Your full edited gallery is delivered within 2–3 weeks via private Pixieset link with full-resolution downloads. A teaser of 20–30 images arrives within 48 hours of your wedding.
Do you travel for destination weddings outside of Gainesville?
Absolutely. We've photographed weddings across Florida, New York, Punta Cana, and internationally. The Away Wedding package quotes everything as a single custom number — no surprises.
What is your backup plan for equipment failure?
We carry redundant camera bodies, multiple lenses, and backup memory cards. Every image is written to two cards simultaneously. We've photographed 100+ events without a single equipment failure.
What Gainesville venues do you work at?
We've photographed weddings at the Hippodrome Theatre, the Hilton University of Florida Conference Center, the Curtis M. Phillips Center, the Cade Museum, the Sweetwater Branch Inn, the Wooly, and the Reitz Union, and dozens of private venues, country clubs, and waterfront estates throughout Gainesville and Alachua County.
