Engagement

Turksandcaicos 3985

A colorful engagement session in Blue Hills

Most of the engagement sessions we shoot are normally around the Grace Bay area, but Kyle and Seana wanted do something a little different and more colorful. We decided to do their engagement session in Blue Hills – a quiet, laid-back part of the island that gives visitors a glimpse into what the island was like many years ago.

Seana and Kyle came to the Turks & Caicos for a short site visit to meet with some of the island wedding vendors to help them on for their coming destination wedding in March.

As part of their visit, they wanted to do a quick engagement session with us. On the day of the photo shoot, I picked them up at the Gansevoort Resort early in the morning and we made our way to Blue Hills.

During the shoot, we stopped at some of our favorite spots like da Conch Shack, an old dock and the colorful kids park.

Here are a few images from their shoot….

Go team NILA!!!!

A site visit to check out your resort is the perfect time to do engagement photos and we’ve had several couples planning weddings for 2015 that have come down to visit us. I think it’s by far the best investment that any couple can make (if budgets permit) to have a visit to size up and get feel for how things will flow during their wedding weekend. Amy is a photographer herself, so that always raising the bar on our shoots, but as a relaxed, fun loving couple they really just wanted a few nice moments rather than anything formal and see what happened!

Kaylie and Sean’s engagement photo shoot.

A free engagement photo shoot for couples visiting us here in Turks and Caicos is a wonderful way for us to get to know our future brides and grooms. We hang out, we talk about the wedding, the island. It’s a fun time and really helps lay a great foundation for the wedding weekend itself. It’s also great for couples who perhaps have never worked with a professional photogrpaher before and don’t know what is expected of them. Kaylie and Sean  were a blast. We zipped around the island avoiding some rain and wind to find fun backdrops before ending up on a secluded beach – all to ourselves – perfect.

A pure Turks and Caicos proposal.

Planning a marriage proposal is always a “test”. How to make it original, unique, memorable? Ryan knocked it out of the park ! While I masqueraded as a member of the crew of Kenard Cruising we sailed up to a remote beach where Melissa and Ryan disembarked to walk, soak up the sun and look for shells.  On the way back Melissa “discovered” a conch shell with a phrase they often use between each other written inside. She turned around and Ryan was on one knee!!! From there it was all tears of joy, love, and laughter. The “photo shoot” ? Well really it was just trying to capture 10% of the emotion that was self evident and all around!!!  So many congratulations to Melissa and Ryan on this amazing day.

Caribbean engagement

A simple Caribbean engagement photo shoot.

We love to meet couples before they get married in Turks and Caicos as it’s wonderful to get and to get to know them and to hear their “backstory” of “why Turks and Caicos”. We can also share our passion for these islands and give our advice (if needed) on timings, locations, the flow of a wedding and what we’ve seen work well over the years. Our free engagement shoots that we do for all weddings in Turks and Caicos that come down for a site visit are a great way for us to play and let couple’s experience our fun, low key style that allows them to feel relaxed and not worry about the camera. Sam and Elin’s shoot last week was perfect. A few pictures, we grabbed a beer, chatted about the wedding and then set up a few pictures for save the date cards…awesome.  Love the props they brought along – very creative. Read More »A simple Caribbean engagement photo shoot.
