This is the story of a greatly planned Turks and Caicos Marriage Proposal; a story that, just like life, is not always as we expect but nevertheless it's wonderful. Sinan contacted me at the beginning of February planning to ask Dilara's hands in May. Then the pandemic struck and the plan changed, not once, but 2,3,4,5 or perhaps 20 times. Emails, texts, phone calls, reservations... the excitement and a little nervousness grew with the passing of time.

The excitement is through the roof, the nerves are shaking, the heart is pounding... where, when and how  to propose?!? William planned his engagement proposal on the best beach in the Caribbean, Grace Bay. No decor needed, just the beauty of the currently deserted beach, a shining diamond ring, a lot of love and your favorite Turks and Caicos photographer hiding in the dunes. Can you guess her answer?!?

Planning a proposal is an extremely personal and emotional event — not to mention a pretty BIG deal. Once you’ve decided that you’re ready to spend the rest of your life with someone, the next step is sifting through the different ways to propose and deciding how YOU should pop the question. There are millions of romantic ways to propose, and “romantic” means something different to every couple, but whatever you choose should reflect you and your future fiancé(e).

There is always something very special about a wedding proposal. When it's a romantic and beautiful Grand Turk wedding proposal, the bar is raised up a knot. On board of Carnival Cruise, Derrick and Holly sailed to Grand Turk, an enchanted island outpost dotted with old windmills, grassy trails and picture-perfect beaches. We planned a "photo tour" and explored the island for 2 hours prior popping the big question. I can still feel the butterflies going crazy inside Derrick's stomach and Holly's confused feelings - I bet the wait was torture! But delaying the dreamed moment erased Holly' secret hope it might be "the day he asks"... when it happened, it was magical.

Once in a while I receive a special gift, such as the opportunity to capture this super gorgeous couple's beach engagement photos. I picked up Cady and Steven from La Vista Azul hotel and within minutes we were shooting in the picturesque Turtle Cove Marina's beach.

The rock formation gave us texture and colour, offering the perfect background for a stunning engagement photo shoot. We played, had fun, laughed, exercised and got sexy (well, they did!) while spending a great hour barefoot on the Turks and Caicos beach.

Turks and Caicos Wedding Planning: what, when, how to do it? Hiring a local wedding coordinator is certainly the number one choice: the agency can arrange all aspects of your important day, including legal paperwork, catering, decorations, hair & makeup and so much more. Even better, it's to plan a site visit to the wedding location, a face-to-face meeting with the wedding planner, a food tasting and, cherry on the cake, an engagement photo shoot.

Lisa and Dustin will get married in November 2019 at Beaches Turks & Caicos: the all-inclusive formula fit their stress-free style and the dream of a fun destination wedding.

Engagement_albumHow are you going to tell you story? What's the best way to display your Turks and Caicos engagement pictures? From cover to cover, a personalised album reveals the most exciting, happy, unforgettable, official begin of your lovestory. Attimi Photography's coffee-table books are custom designed and produced in Europe, with only the finest material in the market: thick, silk finishing pages; leather, varnished, velvet or the stunning acrylic cover; solid bounding and finishing. A collection of images on the computer will never replace the emotions and "butterflies-in-the-stomach-feel" that an album radiate every time you open its pages. A special thanks to Alyssa and Jesus for allowing me to share their Turks and Caicos engagement album layout.

engagement_photoStacey and Paresh are planning a big, exciting, fun, fabulous Turks and Caicos wedding for the spring of 2016. To better plan their special day, they spent a few days on island to meet the vendors, check out the locations, taste delicious dishes, and take some tropical engagement pictures to announce the wedding date. Paresh is a passionate photographer and he loves to learn and pre-explore the sites prior every trip: for their engagement session, the couple choose the Caribbean Blue Hills and the pristine Malcolm Beach, at North West Point, Providenciales. Off the beaten path our exciting afternoon ended with a relaxed, fun, casual dinner at Da Conch Shack: we spoke about the wedding, our common passions, life, kids, memories and adventures. I can't wait for Stacey and Paresh wedding - I'll be behind the camera, capturing  not only my clients but my friends.

Turks_engagement_session"Shall we take our engagement pictures with a snowy and freezing background or a pristine, sun-kissed, Caribbean beach?". You can easily guess the answer... Taking advantage of a deserved family vacation in the Turks & Caicos, Colleen and Jason spent a couple of hours with me to create a collection of romantic, fun, sexy, beautiful images that captured their love. From the beach in Five Cays to Sapodilla Bay and Grace Bay, playing, posing, cuddling - life can be tough, but moments like this make it sweet and unforgettable.
