A little romance early in the morning.

It’s been a busy few weeks this summer. So much so that we could only do a photo shoot for Sanjana and Moin on early Sunday morning rather than the more usual late evening and sunset time slot. Did it matter? I think not, in fact shooting early in the AM is actually a lot of fun. First there are less people around the resort and on the beach. People only really started to walk on the beach right at the very end of our shoot. Secondly, the light here in Turks and Caicos is so amazing and shooting in the AM allowed us to play with it. Third and not least – the knocks your socks off color of the water…wow..it never gets old.  Yes we were limited in the shots we could do on the beach due to a little squinting etc but the blue is just fantastic. LOVE these pictures. This was Sanjana and Moin’s first trip to Turks and Caicos. they had a great time staying at the Seven Stars resort. I have a feeling this will not be their last visit 😉

Mullins family photos and vow renewal

With 17 family members helping to celebrate Lora and Mike’s wedding vow renewal this was always going to be a fun packed photo shoot. The renewal was actually at the Beaches resort in the AM, so with their rules we could not cover the actual event. However we arranged to collect the whole tribe 😉 with both David and myself driving vehicles. We soon had everyone at the lovely Royal West Indies resort for a few garden shots, with both of us helping out. With five individual families there was certainly plenty to do ! Everyone was fantastic and not shy. We did all manner of combinations, individuals and some candid moments of course as well. With sunset fast approaching it was soon time to head off to the beach where the fun continued until the last rays of sunlight disappeared over the horizon. Of course with little ones around they can “steal the show”. Do check out the height that Nate (1), gets and also his awesome expressions when sitting in the sand alone…A vows renewal ceremony is a wonderful moment and having so many close family surrounding them and able to join them on this trip to Turks and Caicos is really amazing.

Magical proposal on Grace Bay beach

As well as a busy week at the studio we are also having quite a romantic week! A couple of days ago we helped Steve pop the question to Jaclyn. After a few telephone calls with Steve we set up a plan involving a walk along the beach close to the Gansevoort Resort with me hiding/lurking ready with a camera. Jaclyn luckily didn’t suspect a thing and even Steve almost missed seeing me!  After the proposal we did a few pictures before the sun started to disappear  and then gave them a lift to the Grace Bay Club where Steve had made dinner reservations. What a lovely way to spend an evening…a magical proposal on Grace Bay beach.

Family vacation at Ocean Club Resorts

Helping with a family vacation at Ocean Club Resorts is one of our favorite things to do. The resort itself is quiet, laid back and purposefully promotes itself as a great place to relax and unwind. Old school caribbean rather than breakfast with Elmo and water-slides.  With kids ourselves we understand the attraction of each.. meeting up with the Curry family involved dodging the rain showers as it was literally pouring with rain minutes before we agreed meet up time. Families and brides often ask us about the weather. Well, its hard to predict when it can change so quickly. With rain drops still dripping from branches we were greeted to an amazing blue sky and a fab sunset. After a few formal groups and so on in the garden we headed to the beach for more relaxed, candid moments. Wow, what a great family. Loads of fun. I love the kids running ones but grandpa almost steals the show right at the end with some fun moments..awesome.Read More »Family vacation at Ocean Club Resorts

Capturing Precious Family Moments at Longbay House Villa in Turks and Caicos

In the midst of life’s constant hustle and bustle, it’s important to take a step back and cherish the precious moments spent with family. Last week, we had the pleasure of working with the Babcock family, providing them with an unforgettable experience of “Family time” at the exquisite Longbay House villa in Turks and Caicos. As a portrait photographer in Turks and Caicos, our goal was to create a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere while capturing the essence of their bond.

With two little ones under the age of three, it was crucial to keep the session low-key and fun, ensuring that the children felt comfortable and at ease. Longbay House villa, known for its scenic beauty and refreshing winds that attract kitesurfing enthusiasts, provided the perfect backdrop for this memorable family gathering. However, on this particular day, the wind was almost “howling,” presenting a unique challenge of managing wayward hair. But despite the blustery conditions, we embraced the moment and created beautiful memories together.

Three-year-old Edwin was a bundle of energy and excitement, keeping everyone in place while captivating us with his curious questions and infectious laughter. Marceline, the adorable little one, melted our hearts with her irresistible cuteness. Even the adults were cooperative and ready to create lasting photographs that captured their love and joy as a family unit.

In a world that often feels like it’s spinning at the speed of light, taking the time to pause and document these special moments becomes all the more meaningful. As a portrait photographer, it is our privilege to freeze these fleeting instances in time, allowing families to revisit and relish in the love and happiness they shared.

At Brilliant Studios, we understand the significance of family and the importance of preserving cherished memories. Our team of dedicated professionals strives to create an atmosphere that is relaxed, enjoyable, and tailored to each family’s unique dynamics. Whether it’s a playful session at a picturesque villa or an adventure in the great outdoors, we go above and beyond to capture the authentic connections and emotions that make each family special.

As a portrait photographer in Turks and Caicos, we are grateful for the opportunity to be a part of the Babcock family’s journey. We believe that these photographs will serve as a reminder of the love, laughter, and joy that fills their lives, providing a timeless keepsake for generations to come.

In a world that moves at lightning speed, let us pause and appreciate the precious moments that create the fabric of our lives. Contact us at Brilliant Studios to capture your own family’s unique story, creating treasured memories that will be cherished for a lifetime.

Sherrill & Clive’s Wedding at Seven Stars Resort

Sherrill & Clive’s Wedding at Seven Stars Resort was just one of those weddings that simply a joy to be involved with.. A lovely couple  – he is a brit so that was a good start !!, combined with a picture perfect day, a gorgeous resort in the Seven Stars Resort with its fabulous wedding set up of the beach and its oceanfront deck, Teresa from Tropical DMC keeping everyone happy, on time and organized, Ann and Geraldine from Beauty & the Beach. It’s hard to pin down one element that made this wedding so great. There were simply lots of small moments that were fab. The kids hanging out with us before the wedding, having cocktails before the ceremony, the impromptu arch friends made as Clive and Sherrill walked down to the beach, the seven stars waiter looking after the kids during the cocktails, the dramatic sunset and sky during the reception. It was fun and we hope the pictures tell that story. Many congrats to Sherrill & Clive.

A baby and Engagement beach escape !

Jayne, Alex, Gina and Carlo all love to travel together. With a new toddler/ baby in the mix and now also Jayne and Alex getting engaged, abeach escape photo shoot was a great way to catch some “first steps” and engagement pictures. So with a couple of cocktails in hand we headed off for our classic beach escape. With the trade winds blowing we found a couple of sheltered spots before going to some of our fav locations and then ending up at Sapodilla Bay for a classic sunset setting almost right over the water. It’s also a lot less windy on the south-side of the island – so that helped a lot with hair ! It was quite a challenge to switch from engagement mode to baby mode back and forth and I was concerned that I might loose any rapport built up…but we kept things loose and easy going and managed to capture some great moments and pictures.  Be sure to checkout the last sunset shot – WOW!!Read More »A baby and Engagement beach escape !
