The perfect “upgrade” for the Beaches all-inclusive bride!

Friday, February 12th, 2010

We’ve had a great relationship with the Beaches Resort in Turks and Caicos over the years. I mean I helped paint the walls of the reception area BEFORE it was even a Beaches!!!! Such is island life ;-) As it turns out we’ve noticed over the last few months that more and more brides having destination weddings have been contacting us wanting something “more” than can be offered by the on-site, in-house photography crew at the resort. Nothing wrong with that and kudos to those brides for wanting to take their wedding to a new level! So to answer that need we’ve put together a special “upgrade” for Beaches brides this year…

Talking to local Turks and Caicos business about blogging!

Saturday, January 30th, 2010

Even though we have been blogging about the fun times we have with destination weddings, with honeymoon couples and families for a while now (4 years) it was still a great surprise to be invited to talk to other local companies in the TCI at a business lunch hosted by Digicel this week. The talk was to be about blogging – why blog, how to blog and a few tips we have picked up along the way – nice and simple!

A quick promo piece showcasing our portraits with video clips!

Basso_092One of the main barriers we come across is that guests staying at the various resorts in Turks and Caicos assume that “local” photographers are probably not that good and that the session itself will be painful, slow, boring with a lot of cheesy posing. Clearly once people SEE what we do they “get it” and want it ;-)   So to that end we have made a quick DVD that we will give out via the concierge desks for families visiting the island. Of course our blog and website is also a great resource, but there are times, when people just don’t think about having some photography until they get onto the island. So here is a sneak preview of the DVD. (more…)
