Dominican Republic: Krista+Luis

Picture this, a warm tropical breeze is blowing through the palm trees. You are surrounded by your closest family and friends and looking into the eyes of the one you love most in life. This is exactly what happened for Krista and Luis on their beautiful wedding day in March.

We landed in Punta Cana and I first felt that warm salty breeze and knew we were in paradise. The resort of Margartitaville in Cap Cana was more than anyone could have asked for. We spent the day in the amazing pool and sipping drinks while getting to know everyone. That night the resort provided a welcome party and Krista provided some amazing and thoughtful welcome bags for the guests. She was just the absolute sweetest.


The following day was wedding day and the weather was AMAZING. Krista and Luis got ready in separate parts of the resort and were both equally excited and nervous. I headed over to Luis and we got some super cool getting ready shots of him while he was taking one last look at his vows. I then headed over to Krista who had an amazing bride squad on her side. She laughed and shed a tear or two before we headed over to the ceremony sight in a golf cart. This wasn’t your typical golf cart ride…..but it was full of laughs and adventure.

As soon as Luis saw Krista walking down the aisle his face lit up. Krista could barely hold back her emotions as she walked down to meet him. They had written and recited their own vows and it was the absolute sweetest thing to witness.

I had some time to spend with the newly married couple on the beach at sunset and boy oh boy it did NOT disappoint. I firmly believe that everyone should have some time just the two of you on your wedding day for portraits. These two were just spectacular.

The reception these two put on was a PARTY and lots of fun for all involved. I am so grateful that these two chose me to help document the most important day of their lives. I made some new friends and have memories to last a lifetime. Congratulations again to Krista and Luis.
