wedding blogs...

Just seen that we were published some time ago on Island Bride Jamaica, Jamaica's Destination Wedding Specialists.

Donna and Peter's wedding coverage was our first in Jamaica - not only were the bride and groom delighted with their images, it was televised on Channel 4 in March this year.

Read what the bride and groom had to say...

DONNA SMOJICE & PETER LIVINGSTON in Montego Bay

Wedding date: 21 November 2009

Location: Jamaica

Venue name: Rose Hall Resort & Spa

We had planned on flying a photographer from the states with us to photograph our wedding and in the 11th hour we were offered an opportunity to have an experience of a lifetime. World renowned photographers Denise and Michael Ebanks were in the process of taping a documentary with Ricochet Productions and chose our wedding to photograph based on the location of the ceremony and reception. The documentary will air on Channel 4 in the UK sometime in the February/March time-frame of this year. So technically we had two teams of photographers and we have photos to share of them filming and photographing us if this is something of interest. Included in the link below are a highlight of photographs combined from both photographers. 

Enjoy!

destination wedding : amber and anthony's jamaican beach wedding

Warm congratulations to Amber and Anthony on their Jamaican beach wedding at Rose Hall Resort on Friday.

Here I am again in Jamaica, honoured to capture the beautiful wedding of Amber and Anthony, as they committed to tying the knot in Montego Bay.

As we know, getting married is a special occasion and a destination wedding is truly amazing - being a destination bride myself.

The wedding was perfect and started way before sunset for me. By noon my assistant, Sandra, had arrived and we were headed down to the Salon to capture some images of Amber whilst she prepared for the most amazing day of her life.

I could go on in words about how fab the day was and Amber & Anthony's lovely friends and family; Justin, Sarah, Jessie, Trish, Olivia, Sydney and Grandma to name a few, however, sharing the images will speak volumes...

destination wedding : 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...

destination wedding : 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...
