Michelle and Michael’s Island Escape

March 8th, 2010 by Chris Mann

As regular readers of our blog will know, the weather is something we’re always interested in, since we are so often out shooting on the beach! Last weekend I was due to shoot an “Island Escape” session with Michelle and Michael, and as luck would have it on Saturday and Sunday we had some rain and wind – but fortunately Monday was better so we were able to jump in the van and spend a couple of hours shooting at several different locations around the island.

We had some sunshine at Blue Hills, but by the time we got to Leeward it had clouded over. But hey, no worries – with a cloudy sky we have soft, flattering light, no squinting, and some dramatic clouds to have in the background! So I personally am not too bothered whether it’s cloudy or sunny (must be because I’m English! ;) ) Continue reading…

The Wedding of BJ & Brian on St Valentine’s Day

March 3rd, 2010 by Ileana Ravasio

I’m not sure how the question came up, but it may have sounded more or less like this: “What do you think about sailing around the Caribbean for 3 months and stop in the Turks and Caicos to get married on St Valentine’s Day?”.

WOW! That’s sound like a daydream but it’s all real. BJ and Brian left South Carolina on their beautiful boat, the “Executive Sweet”, and started an amazing lifetime adventure. Continue reading…

Jacqueline & Chris

March 2nd, 2010 by David Gallardo

Looking for a perfect location for your destination wedding sometimes can be difficult, specially with some many places to choose from. The good thing about the Turks & Caicos Islands is its proximity to the United States and the big variety of big and small hotels with great amenities for a perfect destination wedding.

We first met with Jacqueline and Chris about a week ago and I was quite happy to hear that one of the most important things about the future wedding will be their photography. They haven’t decided yet if they will be getting married in the Turks & Caicos Islands but they came to check out some of the hotels and as part of their up-coming wedding we did an engagement session with them at The Somerset Resort.

We love to do engagement sessions with couples before their wedding, this helps us a lot to show them our photography style and to show them as well how much fun they can have while taking photos with us ;-)

Jenea & Scott

March 2nd, 2010 by David Gallardo

Scott came to our office a couple of weeks ago to book a portrait as he was looking  for a very relaxed beach photo shoot to surprise his fiancée.

On the day of the shoot I met with Scott and Jenea at the Turks & Caicos Club hotel. The idea was to take the couple’s photos at the end of Grace Bay beach because it is normally a bit quieter and with fewer people walking around.

We had an overcast afternoon but perfect for beach photos because it wasn’t too hot and  Jenea and Scott were such a fun couple to work that they made me laugh during the entire photo session!

Here are some of my favorite images….

February 25th, 2010 by Preston Dickenson

Meagan is one of our “superstar” brides – she has been AMAZING at posting on blogs and forums . We are SO lucky to have been able to help her and Dallas with their wedding. We wanted to give them a gift – so we made a short movie of their “trash the dress” shoot. It was shot a day after their wedding here in the Turks & Caicos Islands, at three different locations. We really enjoying shooting this couple and they loved being filmed & photographed as you can tell !!! Continue reading…

Our website was down…

February 22nd, 2010 by Chris Mann

Apologies to anyone who was trying to access our website from about 4.30pm EST on Saturday to 7.30AM EST on Sunday – our web hosting company suffered some major problems when their fire protection system went off accidentally during an inspection test, and damaged a lot of their equipment.

As you can see, everything is back online again now!

Brianna and Carmine – soon to be married…

February 20th, 2010 by Ileana Ravasio

Decisions, decisions… planning a destination wedding is not always easy. To find the perfect answer to where, when, how and who a trip to the Turks and Caicos becomes mandatory. Brianna and Carmine left the freezing temperatures that hit the States this winter and jumped on a plane direct to the island to finalize their wedding details and enjoy a little sunshine.

We love to meet our future couples and share our “Provo’s secrets”, as well as offer them a free engagement session to get the feel of being in front of the camera and be the star of the day. Continue reading…

Baby, Baby, oh baby!!

February 18th, 2010 by Andy Mann

Our new fab, “eco friendly” photo studio allows us to do  indoor studio work for the first time. With big north facing windows, air conditioning and plenty of space, we can now offer photography services that are not best suited to the outdoors or on the beach. A quick executive portrait, a video interview, boudoir session and especially infant and baby photos. Such fun!

The Sottak Family

February 17th, 2010 by Kellie Hayes

Last week I met with up The Sottak family at the Royal West Indies resort.   Quite a few of our local portrait sessions are done here because it has  awesome gardens, a great little rock wall and the right amount of shaded coverage.

With the bright white buildings reflecting the light towards our shaded areas we are not stuck with dull, flat light but more like I have an assistant holding one of our reflectors.
