2 years ago I had the pleasure to meet and photograph 2 beautiful families (check out their beautiful album). Thanks to a special gift offered by her best friends, Debbie, Gary, Cole, Max, Delilah and I got together again to recreate the magic: a new background, the Caribbean Blue Hills, different and colourful outfits, and a few extra inches (I'm speaking about the kids heigh of course!).
College is calling and it's time to move back to Canada for a couple of years, but the Turks and Caicos is HOME and the vibrant colours of the island will follow them everywhere, thanks to their family portrait.
"I booked this trip the weekend of Mother’s Day with family photographs as my top priority!" - Rebecca.
Her little girls are now beautiful young women and the time spent together is precious, rare, special. To make it unforgettable, we captured a collection of pictures to cherish forever, an unique gift to treasure for the years to come.
Skipping the traditional images shot in front of the resort, we took a little island tour, accessing different parts of Provo, from Blue Hills to Leeward, for a real Family portrait Turks and Caicos style.
Bailey proposed to Allie after a long walk on City Par New Orleans: when she least expected he got down on one knee and asked Allie to be his wife. He is the love of her life and the "yes!" was immediate. The fabulous ring, personally designed by Bailey, sealed the deal... and here we are: it's time to announce the wedding with a collection of beautiful pictures taken in the Turks and Caicos.
I love to photograph engagement sessions: always fresh, happy, romantic. And I'm happy to fly to wherever you want for the wedding ;-)
I'm very excited to post the images of Andrea and Jim, not only because I love them, but because I'm completely fascinated by this amazing couple: they are parents of 5 beautiful children (3 of them are from international adoption), they are artists, writers, travellers, world changer. I love Andrea's unique sense of style and I truly would like to see in her art creations. I love Jim's expertise and way of speaking... if I didn't just spent more then a hour on his blog and order his latest marketing book, this post would have been finished long ago!

To celebrate her birthday, they indulged in a date-vacation to the Turks and Caicos... from Blue Hills to Leeward Beach, enjoying every step in between.
Charrish doesn't like have her pictures taken. She literally hates the process. Charrish is a little shy. She would have preferred to hide all day in her room than pose for me.
According to me... Charrish is a beautiful woman, smart, talented, interesting. She is an artist and she as an unique style - I LOVE her hair. Charrish is the awesome designer of Attimi Photography's logo. I'm forever grateful.
The photo shoot? A real success! She let her barriers down and transformed herself in a model, self confident, proud, naturally beautiful. Check it out:
The latest trend in wedding photography is the "trash the dress" shoot however, when the gown is too precious for the bride, there is no reason to spoil it. Anna, Nick and I took a tour around the island to create a collection of colourful images that will complete their wedding album. A Turks and Caicos experience is sunny, fun, vibrant, wild and so worth living it.
I loved Dee's first excited email: "We live in Chicago and knowing the beauty of these islands first hand (my family is from the Turks and Caicos), I am looking to use this opportunity to take some  pictures to freeze these memories in time.  My excitement: I just got our airline tickets last night, so the reality of the trip is setting in for me and the kids (Dimi 17 and Sammy 12). I found you via facebook last night with help from my god daughter and took the time to like Attimi Photography and look through your galleries which I absolutely love... Truly we are interested in and open to any background that screams Provo!'.
While working on my portfolio, I had the opportunity to photograph my friend Caroline, from Toulouse, France. It was a pleasure to work with her: officially an awesome hair stylist (Maxime le Salon), she posed for the camera like a real model.
The Turks and Caicos are "Beautiful by Nature", but the inhabitants, native or not, make the island look even better!
