Eloping to the Turks and Caicos: a dream of many couples, the real wedding of Andrea and John. The young couple exchanged their vows on the best beach in the world, a few step away from their vacation home, Atlantic Ocean Beach Villas. Romantic, down-to-earth, sweet and simple just like the bride and groom. A special thank to Mary, Nila Destinations' super wedding coordinator, and to Kristen, Andrea's best friend: she recently moved to the Turks and Caicos and I'm sure her presence had a strong influence on the couple's choice for their destination wedding. My favourite thing about this special day? Andrea's laughter and smile - so pure, contagious, real, and certainly one of the reason that make John fall in love with his beautiful bride.
I love weddings and the love-stories that lead to the special day: Lauren and Michael met during happy hour; they dated, laughed, experienced, travelled, shared their lives as boyfriend and girlfriend for a few years. One cold nigh in Colorado, while the snow was covering everything with a white coat, Michael asked Lauren to leave the dinner table a little earlier than planned... bearing the freezing temperature they went for a little walk and he proposed. Fast forward from that unique evening (captured by loyal friends hidden in the bushes), the couple planned a beautiful destination wedding in the Turks and Caicos. Wedding venue: Seven Stars Resort, Grace Bay, Providenciales
A collection of beautiful images is one of the best way to remember your wonderful vacation spent with the people you love the most. When the kids cooperate, have fun and smile away, the family portrait suddenly gives a reason to mom to start an happy dance, and a vision for the home re-decoration. Three sweet kids, gorgeous parents, a touch of vibrant colours, the amazing beach of The Tuscany resort: this family photo session couldn't be better. I felt so lucky!
11:00am at Point Grace, Turks & Caicos: the sun is hot and shining, and my sexy couple is ready to raise the temperature a little more. Passion, fun, romance, connection - Rhea and Rob have it all. Most portrait photographers avoid the direct sun, but when light and shadows are used in the right way, the results are vibrant, colourful and simply amazing. Check it out:
Amy and Joel enjoy the pleasure of a happy, simple, stress-free life. They love to walk on the beach, take a bike ride, watch the sunset, laugh, kiss a lot and be together. The idea of big wedding has been fast replaced by a romantic destination wedding in the Turks and Caicos - a little wild, very happy, just perfect! Venue: Pelican Beach in Leeward, Providenciales; wedding planner: Teresa, Tropical Destination Management; Pastor: Rev. Sherlock Padmore.
Exactly two years ago I had the privilege to photograph the wedding of Taylor & Jack. Coming back to the island is a tradition they would like to repeat every year as they are in love with this beautiful place. Thanks to Taylor's mom, Jaimi, and her passion about photography, every step of their lives is documented by a collection of amazing pictures: from the engagement to the wedding, from the maternity to the delivery, from the first baby to the second. Every moment is precious and it can't be forgotten with the passing of time. Let's take a look at the Turks and Caicos shoot...
Dimple and Sankrant are the parents of 2 years old twins: they love them more then anything else in the world, no doubt. They are also husband and wife, best friends, lovers, a couple that need to spend some quality time together... hard task with 2 toddlers full of energy! To celebrate their anniversary they booked a vacation to the Regent Grand, Turks and Caicos: 5 days under the sun, just with each other. They look like models and they are kind, sweet, passionate, fun and easy going. My job can be so "hard" at times ;-)
 While the "boys" scubaed in the Bahamas, Margo and her 3 gorgeous daughters planned a "just the girls trip" to the Turks and Caicos. For 3 hours they posed, played, jumped, laughed and had a great time in front of my camera - I loved their enthusiasm, beauty and energy. I wish every mom could take the time to spend a week with her daughters, such a treat!
Recently I have been photographing several senior portrait sessions - when I thought it could just not get any better, I met Shaylee. I truly enjoyed working with her and her mom Deavie: 4 different outfits, the garden area and the pristine beach of the Seven Stars Resort, a pair of amazing blue eyes, a perfect tan, and a gorgeous smile. She is absolutely stunning but she doesn't know it yet. The world is in your hands Shaylee: make the best of it!
Jennifer, Mike and Hayden are Turks and Caicos' habitues: they love the water, the sun, the relaxed atmosphere and the precious, full time, family bonding. For this July's vacation they booked The Venetian on the far east side of  Grace Bay, Providenciales. Hayden is a lucky kid: the love, care and attention of his parents are impressive - he truly is the price of the family.
