Sunita and Nate Married in Cancun

Sunita and Nate were a dream to work with for their destination wedding in Cancun, Mexico. They are from Edmonton, Alberta in Canada. They booked me for their wedding at Dreams Cancun almost a year ahead of time and the hardest part was waiting for their wedding to finally get here. After the intimate ceremony surrounded by their closest friends they planned nearly an hour and half for photos so we could take full advantage of our surroundings! I am so happy that I had the chance to join Sunita and Nate along with their friends in Cancun for this wedding.

I love when wedding blogs feature my work, and seeing one of my images in print in a national publication blows my mind! I’m excited to show off my bouquet image printed in the Summer issue of Get Married Magazine. Check out page 45, a pretty pink and white bouquet from Joslyn and Bill’s wedding (that still needs to be blogged!), designed by Joy over at Stanford Designs. Get Married magazine has lots of great ideas, with fun features and images throughout.

Next up, Destination I Do Magazine featured Cathy and Dan’s wedding at Secrets Maroma Beach in Riviera Maya on their blog. You can check out their feature here Destination I Do’s magazine and blog are full of inspirational ideas for your Destination Wedding.

Catherine + Elliot Married Playa Del Carmen

Four years ago Emily and Barrett were married and I was there to photograph their Dallas wedding. In November Emily’s sister Catherine was getting married to Elliot in Playa Del Carmen and asked me to travel with them to photograph their beach wedding. It is such an honor for a family to consider me their “family photographer”. My wife Sarah and I were happy to go spend the week in Playa del Carmen with Catherine and Elliot and their family and friends. Unfortunately, Hurricane Ida was making her way through the Yucatan channel on the day of the wedding so we had to move the wedding off of the beach. But everyone was in great spirits and having such a good time it was no problem. They had a beautiful wedding and reception at The Royal Playa del Carmen. The day after the wedding the sun came out and we got a chance to take some photos on the beach. Thanks Catherine and Elliot for having Sarah and me along for the ride and including us as part of your family.

Prisca + Colin Married in Virginia

I was thrilled that Prisca and Colin asked me to photograph their wedding in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. My wife Sarah’s family have been life long friends with Prisca’s family, so it was that much more special for us that we could be there and all celebrate together.
We started out with an intimate first look in Charlottesville, Virginia before the wedding. Prisca and Colin both went to the University of Virginia so we grabbed some photos in front of the Rotunda. It is such a beautiful campus.

The wedding was at their church in Charlottesville, surrounded by friends and family. The ceremony was beautifully backlit by huge windows looking out into the trees.

We ended up the day at Barren Ridge Vineyards for their reception. A gorgeous location, I couldn’t have asked for a better place for photos.

Thriller on the dance floor…With BABIES!!

Congratulations Prisca and Colin!

Cathy + Dan Married in Riviera Maya

Destination weddings are so much fun.
#1. I get to go to the beach
#2. The beach is nice
There are many other reasons involving the beach, water, snorkeling, and all-inclusive, to name a few. The best part is that they are just laid back events with the couple’s closest family and friends in an exotic location.
Cathy and Dan were married at Secrets Maroma Beach in Riviera Maya, Mexico. They had a beautiful wedding and everyone had a great time dancing into the night. Thanks to Cathy and Dan for taking me along with you to Mexico!

We also had the opportunity to run around the Secrets resort for a day after session.

Kat and Ryan Married in Cancun

Jeremy — Sat, 18 Oct 2008 22:06:05 +0000

Welcome to the new blog and website! To get things started off right around here this first post is going to be an epic destination wedding in Cancun. I love to travel and I love to photograph weddings, so for me it can’t get much better than destination weddings. I also get a little more time hanging out with the bride and groom and the wedding party when I travel for weddings. Kat and Ryan’s group accepted me as part of the family, and we had a great time. Thanks for dropping by to see the new site, and without further ado, on to the awesome.

The wedding was held at the Dreams Cancun Resort

Everyone was so much fun, here’s the best man Jeremy doing some last minute checks.

An intimate ceremony with their closest family and friends

Strike a pose. Whose is better?

At many weddings when guests ring a bell it means for the bride and groom to kiss. Kat and Ryan had to kiss but the best man instituted a new rule: Someone had to stand up and tell a story about one of them. This brought much hilarity and some tears, I’m a sucker for tears (See About Me Section).

The day after the wedding we did a Trash the Dress session of course. I love these sessions, and we always get cool pictures.
