shannon & zack's jamaican beach wedding

When I met Shannon & Zack on Thursday, I just knew that their wedding was going to be amazing. Despite circumstances beyond their control, four special people were unable to attend the wedding at the very last moment. It was emotional at the time, I'm sure, however, Shannon and Zack remained positive.

I was delighted to have such a laid back, relaxed couple who were happy to go with the flow and experience a wonderful destination wedding here in Jamaica.

Everything seemed to line up perfectly for Shannon and Zack on their big day; location was perfect, weather was perfect, company was perfect, they were perfect. Below is a rather large selection of images that tell their story... enjoy and share your comments...

carmen & wendell's jamaican gazebo wedding

On 12 December, I met Carmen and Wendell on the afternoon of their wedding.

Wendell was quite simply beaming - well, of course, he was marrying his lady that afternoon.

Carmen was amazing - so warm and welcoming, not to forget full of laughter and fun. The getting ready coverage in Carmen's suite was great, all the ladies preparing themselves for Carmen and Wendell's big day. Rosa was super - just like Carmen, she kept it real and in the spirit of the day.

I loved capturing the details, beautiful portraits of equally beautiful ladies and some truly special spontaneous moments.

The wedding itself was fun, lots of smiles, laughter and enjoyment - and I was the fortunate one who was able to capture it all - thank you Carmen and Wendell for choosing imageXperience for your wedding photography.

For those of you who haven't had the opportunity to preview the images in the private gallery, please enjoy a selection of images below...

a jamaica wedding - meet donna & peter...

On Saturday 21 November, Donna and Peter married their best friends - each other.

We only got to meet Donna and Peter on the Thursday before their wedding to introduce ourselves and what we had to offer.

Clearly both Donna and Peter were impressed with the intimately You™ album and Donna had indicated to me that she would love a session that afternoon.

With the wedding questionnaire complete, intimately You™ session booked, we were ready to ensure Donna and Peter's wedding photography experience was a complete imageXperience.

Enjoy the images...

Donna and Peter, thank you for choosing us to capture your day. Live your life and treasure the moments.
