Transforming Your Wedding Look From Ceremony To Reception
November, 24 2023
Your wedding day is a whirlwind of emotions, celebrations, and cherished moments. It's a day when you want to look and feel your absolute best, not just for yourself but also for the lasting memories captured in your wedding photos. To achieve this, many brides and grooms choose to switch up their wedding looks between the ceremony and the reception party. This change in attire not only adds a touch of excitement and surprise to your big day but also has a significant impact on the overall quality of your wedding photos. For the wedding ceremony, brides often select a traditional, formal gown that aligns with the solemnity of the occasion. This is the moment you've been dreaming of, and your attire should reflect the grandeur and elegance that comes with it. A long train, intricate lacework, and a veil can add a touch of drama to your ceremony look, making you feel like a celebrity as you exchange vows.
Miami Magic: Gabriela & Zachary’s Elegantly Romantic Celebration
November, 21 2023
A wedding day is a day of many emotions, a great time to celebrate those who are close to you, and the start of a beautiful journey. Gabriela and Zachary’s wedding celebration was pristine, sweet, and a wholesome celebration of love. Reminding us of the beauty of the city of Miami, these two love stories put a smile on our faces when we saw their wedding photos and warmed our hearts. Before we talk about their love story our wedding photographer captured into brilliant photos, let’s talk about the city. Miami's story is a rich tapestry woven with various influences. Originally inhabited by the Tequesta and Seminole tribes, it later became a Spanish territory in the 16th century. The city's name, "Miami," is a nod to the Mayaimi tribe who once inhabited this region. In the late 19th century, Miami began to flourish as a city, largely thanks to the arrival of the railroad. Miami's historical significance continued during World War II, when it served as a training ground for soldiers, and during the Cold War, as a key location during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Over time, it evolved into a melting pot of cultures, particularly as a gateway for Cuban immigrants. The beauty of Miami is simply undeniable. This city enjoys a tropical climate, blessed with lush palm trees, pristine beaches, and crystal-clear waters hugging its coastline. The historic South Beach district boasts striking Art Deco architecture that contrasts beautifully with the modern skyscrapers punctuating the skyline. The city's natural beauty extends to its numerous parks and gardens, such as Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden and Matheson Hammock Park. And just a short drive away, the Everglades National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, celebrated for its unique ecosystem, teeming with wildlife and offering unforgettable airboat tours and nature exploration.
