Desha and Kyle - July 24, 2006
Our adventure with Desha and Kyle started when I saw them for the initial consultation in January 2006. Before I tell the whole story let me present one image from the couple's engagement session. After two attempts spoiled by bad weather forecasts and a storm of the century we finally got together for some quality photography time on July 2, 2006:
What a great couple, what a wonderful plan for a wedding, what an unfortunate coincidence... but let's start from the beginning: Desha and Kyle had planned to have their wedding reception at a beautiful venue in upstate New York on July 28 - great, I was available for the date ! They also had planned to have their wedding ceremony in Aruba on July 24 - and it would be even more exciting if I hadn't been booked for a wedding on July 23. They were inviting me to go with them and photograph the ceremony in Aruba. I would do it with a great pleasure but there was simply too much risk involving a super tight schedule for the flight and no extra time in case of an unforseen delay. It seemed I had no choice but to pass on this great opportunity. With help came my friend Neil van Niekerk. Thankfully he was available and more than happy to visit Aruba together with Desha and Kyle and create these beautiful images:
from the portrait session after the civil ceremony:
it looks to me like wherever you go in Aruba the colors around you are just amazing:
this image was captured during the official beach wedding ceremony:
...and another, beautiful silhouette shot:
Aruba brings not only beautiful sunset but also wild ocean waves into the picture:
one of the good-bye images:
A few days later, back in New York Desha is getting ready for the wedding reception:
it's not Aruba anymore but the colors can be just as good !
the beautiful bride:
I guess you'd have to try pretty hard to take a bad picture of Desha, this one by Jose:
Let's not forget the fantastic wedding cake:
...and the venue's exotic architecture:
one more image from the couple's outside session:
the first dance gave us a chance to create many special images:
...as did the front of the venue at night:
Desha and Kyle ! Thank You for the unforgettable experience, Thank You for being a wonderful couple to work with and the unique opportunity to photograph Your entire Wedding ! Neil - Thank You for delivering a superb set of images from Aruba !
