Even though I shoot in a photojournalistic style of photography, my love and background for fashion photography helps me to pose my clients for the post ceremony photos. I am always looking for that perfect location and waiting for the right moment to take the photo.

Documenting destination weddings in Belize has become my passion. Before weddings I did fashion photography and events but there is something extra special about weddings that made me want to specialize in documenting them. Maybe it’s the love in the air or maybe all the intrigue leading to the defining hour. Or maybe it’s just the fact that I love photographing romantic moments. And fun ones too. After all, a wedding is not only about hugs and kisses, it’s a celebration, especially here in Belize 🙂

Weddings are fun in Belize when you come with your friends and family. While the shot above seems to be from a spontaneous moment, it was completely directed by me.
