We’re now booking holiday events for the upcoming season! While the holidays may still feel months away, November and December fill up quickly with corporate parties, nonprofit galas, employee appreciation events, and community celebrations along with all of our family portrait sessions. There are only so many prime Friday and Saturday evenings before Christmas, and those dates are often the first to book. Reserving your photographer early helps ensure your event is on the calendar before the busiest weekends are gone.
The holiday season is one of the busiest times of the year for businesses, nonprofits, and organizations across Tampa Bay. Whether you’re planning a corporate holiday party, awards banquet, fundraiser, or community celebration, professional photography helps preserve the memories while providing valuable images for your website, social media, newsletters, and future marketing.
At Xina Photo, we photograph holiday events throughout St. Petersburg, Tampa, Clearwater, Bradenton, and the surrounding Tampa Bay area.
NEW! Live Photo Sharing Available
We’re excited to now offer live photo sharing as an optional add-on for your holiday event. Throughout your event, guests can view and download professionally captured photos almost instantly from a shared online gallery using a tablet or their own mobile device.
This feature is perfect for corporate holiday parties, galas, and employee appreciation events, allowing guests to enjoy and share their favorite moments while the celebration is still happening. It’s a fun, interactive experience that also gives your marketing team immediate access to high-quality images for social media and event coverage.

Xina’s photos are breathtaking. She communicates on a timely manner and is very professional. She made sure the weather didn’t get in the way and is knowledgeable of the St. Petersburg area and flexible to the place and time.The photos of our beach elopement are stunning and although I was a bit tense she made sure to put me at ease and capture the perfect shots during our sunset beach shoot. The turnaround time was also incredibly fast for us. Go look for yourself in Instagram and Facebook . Highly Recommend!
Xina provided us with a great experience through the planning, recommendations, and the shoot itself. The photos in the preview turned out beautiful and we are very excited to see the final results! Would absolutely work with her again.
Xina was an event photographer on a retreat I attended and I loved the color, clarity, and enthusiasm of her work. Grateful for this beautiful photography!
Xina is an extremely talented photographer! She was a calm, gentle presence during our retreat in Bali, beautifully documenting our daily activities like morning yoga completely without interruption. I've only seen a few sneak peeks so far, but I am absolutely confident the final collection will be stunning. I highly recommend her for your next memorable event!
Xina was amazing to work with and helped me plan my engagement perfectly! She was very easy to communicate with and fast to respond. The photos look amazing!
Xina did professional headshots at an event for us. The experience was great, she took time and did several poses with everyone. The photos turned out fantastic, best headshots I've ever had!
Xina Scuderi Photography was amazing to work with! Very easygoing, professional, and incredibly creative. Everything was done on time, and I absolutely loved my pictures. Highly recommend!
Had the most wonderful experience being photographed by Xina with my family for a Fall photoshoot at Gallaghers. She is so easy to work with, makes everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera and is a ton of fun to be around. Highly recommend her for your next event or photoshoot. Her turnaround time was fantastic and the vast array of images presented to us was amazing. Can’t speak more highly of her, both in her technical skills/shooting/editing etc and also her as a person/artist/creative. Five stars all day long! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Just received the most incredible photos from Xina! She captured my beach yoga class so BEAUTIFULLY—the colors of the sky and ocean stood out in such a powerful way and truly elevated our presence. I was blown away by her dedication and artistic approach—she put so much passion and effort into shooting from different angles to capture the energy of our yoga and sound bath class. She even edited out a distracting sign in the background and enhanced the colors so everything looked even more magical. The turnaround time was so fast, and I felt completely supported by her throughout the process. Xina isn’t just a photographer, she’s an artist, and I’m so grateful to have her talent behind the lens. If you’re in St. Pete—especially if you’re dreaming of stunning sunset photos at Upham Beach—you absolutely need to connect with her!
We setup a sunset photo session, we like to have family photos every couple of years, and Xina made this session so special. We could not be happier with the pictures, and with her directions and her professional attitude on having fun while getting these bits of history inked in digital medium. If you want a great set of pictures during the sunset she is the one to call.
We booked a session while on vacation and really appreciated how easy she made the process. She met us right outside our hotel, which fit perfectly into our schedule and made it effortless on our part. She blended into our day without any stress or time-consuming planning. The photos captured our trip nicely and were a convenient way to get some family shots without having to arrange a big photo session.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! I’m so glad the session felt easy and stress-free—that’s exactly what I aim for. While some photographers spend a lot of their clients’ time on outfit planning, props, and storytelling concepts, I keep my sessions simple so you can enjoy the moment without extra calls, consultations, or preparation. I want the process to fit naturally into your day, capture authentic memories, and give you beautiful photos without taking you away from your vacation. You are such a beautiful family, and your photos turned out absolutely spectacular—it was a joy to capture those moments for you!
Xina took our engagement photos in Clearwaters, on the beach, during sunset, and it went so well ! We were first timers and never had gotten our pictures done professionally, and she was very patient with us . She worked very well with our awkwardness haha . if we are ever back in Clearwater , we would book her again and I recommend her to anyone else interested in getting their pictures done

You were awesome. Love a couple with beautiful eyes! So easy to direct. Thank you for booking.
Xina did an excellent job photographing our baby girl for her 1/2 birthday! We had family portraits taken with her at The Vinoy in the tea garden which was a perfect location! Xina was very professional and knew exactly where we should pose to get the best results. She even sang silly songs to our baby to get her to look at her and it worked!
We were so impressed with the quality of the photos we received. They came out better than we expected and will be treasured forever! We are going to have to get some of them printed to hang up in our home. They are worth every penny! We can’t recommend Xina enough for any of your professional photography needs.
