Especially when the destination is Mexico and the time of year is the end of November. Palm trees and fruity drinks replace snow, ice and hot chocolate. Hola Mexico was what I was thinking. A destination in the Mayan Riveria was very exciting for this wedding photojournalist!

Cassandra and Jon from Grande Prairie invited me to be their ‘Official Destination Wedding Photographer’ in March not knowing where their destination wedding would take place exactly I gladly excepted the invitation. A wedding adventure filled with friends, love and lots of fiesta’s!

The wedding morning started very low key. The bride and her brides maids sipped champagne in her ocean front room while her stylist ensured every hair was in perfect place for her special day.  A warm ocean breeze floated through the room as the girls relaxed and enjoyed the morning. In the afternoon the ceremony took place in after a light shower settled the sand on the beach. They both said “I Do”  with the crystal clear tourquioise waters of the Carribean sea behind them and their closest friends and family by their sides. It truly was a fairly tale wedding for these two amazing people.  I was so honored to take part in their amazing day and capture those images for them forever.  Below are a few teasers of Cassandra and Jon’s beautiful wedding. It was an experience I will treasure forever.  Thank you Cass and Jon for sharing your day with me.

The weather was unusually warm for the majority of the month, I guess it was preparing us for this blast of winter we recently received. It couldn’t be better timing though for a Central Alberta photojournalist who is heading out on her first destination wedding. On Friday November 19, I leave the frigid cold of Alberta and head south to Tulum in the Mayan Riveria of Mexico. A million thoughts run through my head… Make sure you bring an extra camera body, how many compact flash cards will you need?, do I really need my laptop?, how many lenses? The list goes on and on. I have to admit although I am excited to be heading away to a tropical paradise for work it is quite nerve racking thinking of the factors out of my control. Different than a regular wedding probably not so much however after three years of Alberta and B.C Wedding Photography one develops routines, I am not so sure the same routines will work in Mexico so it is a little bit of an adventure. The adventure to photograph a Wedding in a Mexican 5 Star Resort, how awesome is that! I will continue to pack my bags, check my list and plan for the shoot,  knowing this next week will be a great experience for me, one filled with some amazing images for the bride and groom! See you in a week Alberta, if you could plan a chinook when we come home…. that would be awesome.
