A few of our favorites… We always love making unique one of a kind portraits, and with grooms we are always looking for that perfect “in between” moment, right before the first look and the ceremony, when the fun is about to start…  watch out for our camera!

We feel so lucky to have arrived into an incredibly welcoming photo community since we came to Boston. Last February, Michael was invited to lecture and mentor industry photographers at Inspire Photo Seminars where he gave a talk: “Finding Your Personal Vision”. It was great being a part of this awesome event, and sharing creative energy with all of this wonderful people. Thanks to the Inspire Team for the hard work creating these opportunities!  Now our first winter is almost through and we are warming up for it what looks like will be an exciting wedding season! and can’t wait until Inspire 2014, I sure won’t miss it again!

You are five! Your aunt is marrying her cool boyfriend, and you are invited to their wedding!  You have no idea what the commotion in the family is all about, the dresses, the suits, the flowers and the food, and so many people. You get to wear a dress that is from a fairy tale, you try it on, it’s itchy at first, but then you start spinning, and you become a swirl within it, the ceremony is about to start, you  walk down the aisle, every one gazes and smiles while you walk.

While the guys get ready, you and your brothers find a nook behind the door where you can watch what are those black suits and ties are  about, but wait, you don’t have to hide, you are invited in, you are allowed into the mysterious grown up world, you think it can’t possibly last, but it does. You are have full access to every part of the party, you are the king on the dance floor, you dance the couples dance, you eat so many desserts your stomach can’t take more, but no one seems to stop you, and there is no curfew! It is one of the happiest days in your childhood, remember it as grand, we are grateful we witnessed it!

Max and Jamie’s wedding was a wonderful romantic celebration, and the Hacienda Las Trancas in Mexico was the perfect place for such an intimate and meaningful Wedding.  They chose to share this day with only 23 of their closest friends and family.  All the little details in their wedding were carefully and lovingly planned; the selection of ceremony readings, the music, a very special dinner where everyone gathered around the same table to exchange great stories, and romantic dancing in the rain at the Hacienda’s courtyard! It’s a privilege to be around families, quite frankly, this kick ass and awesome! A well deserved happy ending  to a beautiful love story! Max and Jamie, thanks for having us be a  part of this very unique day!

Rita & Evan’s wedding at the Lincoln Family Home, Hildene, in Vermont, was by far one of our most fun ones to shoot this past summer.   They had a perfect summer sunny day, great friends, a wonderful and welcoming family and a great DJ, DJ Joe Maz who came all the day from Miami to rock this party.  We tried to stay off of the dance floor but there was just not way to stay still with such good tunes!.  We thank the wonderful staff at Hildene who were so helpful and friendly and gave us access to every area of this fantastic historical venue.  One thing is for sure, this pair is up for many years ahead of fun and love!

We met almost five years ago in San Miguel and this summer we finally tied the knot … Where else, of course San Miguel, in the peak of rain season and under the heavy clouds of July’s sky.  Hey…  after all “life is not about waiting for the storm to pass, it’s about learning to dance in the rain”, And we loved every bit of it!  So the big question remains… who shot our wedding?!!! Well, we were fortunate enough to have amazingly talented friends and photographers coming from all corners of the world to share this day with us who captured every detail and every moment.  It’s incredible to see what happens when you have this many creative minds working and partying together! We feel so lucky and will forever be thankful for having this treasure that will keep great memories alive!

Our very special thanks to our dear friend Mike Sakas not only for creating amazing images of our wedding but also for making our wedding ceremony be more special and unique than we could have ever imagined,

And to our amazing wedding planner Alicia Vilar -San Miguel weddings for her hard work an creativity in making all of this happen,

Click on the images and they will lead you to more amazing work by these great photographers!
