Kara Gold Photography


Honoring your story, one moment at a time.

I'm Kara

a St. Petersburg, Florida native with a passion for storytelling. I specialize in capturing the moments that matter most—whether it’s a wedding, bat mitzvah, personal milestone, or community gathering. My goal is to create photographs that feel natural, timeless, and true to your story, so you can return to them for years to come.

Weddings

Every love story is unique. My approach to weddings is simple: to capture the beauty of your day as it unfolds naturally — the laughter, the quiet moments, and the joy you’ll want to relive forever.

Portraits

From family portraits and milestone moments to professional headshots, I create images that reflect connection, authenticity, and individuality. These aren’t just photos — they’re keepsakes you’ll treasure for years to come.

From stage to celebration to casual gathering, I capture the moments that bring people together. With a director’s eye and a storyteller’s heart, I specialize in archival theatre photography that preserves the artistry of live performance — and in documenting community events filled with laughter, connection, and joy. These images honor the spirit of your gathering, whether under stage lights or out in the world.

Frequently Asked Questions

This is my first headshot session, what should I know?

Your headshot should be an authentic reflection of who you are. Your hair and makeup should look polished, but true to the 'you' that will be showing up to the audition. Put your best foot forward!

Can you photograh my event outside of florida?

At this time, I'm only taking clients within the Tampa Bay Area.

How long does it take to get our photos?

For events, portraits, and performances, you'll receive a selection of top photos within 3 business days. The full album will be delivered within 3 weeks.

For headshots, you'll receive a catalogue of proofs to choose from within the week of your shoot.

Wedding and B’nai Mitzvah albums can take up to 3 months. A selection of top photos will be delivered within the week.

Can you recommend any good locations?

Absolutely! I have some favorite spots around the Tampa Bay area that are perfect for anything from headshots, to family portraits, to surprise engagements.

If you have somewhere in mind already - that's great too! But if not, I'm happy to help you figure out the best fit for the vibe you're looking for.
