I can't believe I've sat on these photos for so long! Don't worry, the couple received their photos long ago; I just haven't blogged them yet.
This was my first destination wedding and it was CRAZY! My associate photographer Gary and I flew down to Cancun on a Friday and were photographing the rehearsal within hours of touching down. We were up and shooting again at 8 Saturday morning and didn't stop (except for a bite here and there) until about 10:30 p.m. It was a long, fun day.
Renee and Jon Michael, as well as the rest of the people who flew down for the wedding and a little vacation at the incredible
Moon Palace Resort were awesome. We had so much fun hanging out and shooting with them. Everyone had a great time hamming it up for our cameras. Almost everyone there were huge Pittsburg Steelers fans and apparently, Gary bears an uncanny resemblance to their quarterback
Ben Roethlisberger, so everyone immediately started referring to him as Big Ben and pulling the Heisman trophy pose.
Anyway, on to the photos!
The dress & the shoes:
I love this shot of her pulling up to the ceremony in her horse-drawn carriage and him giving a little wave:
During the ceremony:
Victory!
...and straight into a kiss with a dip:
The wedding party being silly:
And, here's a few from the reception:
That last one really shows what the whole reception was like: non-stop dancing and craziness! There's a lot more photos on
my flickr photostream if you'd like to check them out.
Thanks & congrats to Renee and Jon Michael!
