I was again commissioned to cover a surprise engagement, this time for Stephen and Valerie. Stephen contacted me weeks prior to his arrival and let me in on all the juicy details of the evening. I showed up at the Aruba Westin Resort, introduced myself to them and went out to the beach to take a few shots. I’ve started out with some pretty simple poses getting them comfortable with being infront of the lens as I know that it is pretty challenging for us non-models, therefore I take my time and really talk and attempt to get the clients as comfortable as possible in as much as I’m convinced everyone has their inner “bedroom/bathroom mirror” sexy, so I attempt to engage this sexy infront of the lens.
This state of mind was not difficult for them to achieve as they are two people that exudes passion. It is very obvious how Valerie sparkles when she’s in Stephen’s presence but Stephen has his inner sexy as well, having planned this engagement from beginning to end. Asked her dad, arranged a photographer, booked a top (romantic) restaurant (Flying Fishbone), candle lit table for two at the water’s edge, toes in the sand experience under the stars explains it all. The brother’s sexy!
Stephen and Valerie met in college four years ago and in Stephen’s words “We’ve been together ever since” They love to travel, they’ve been to Aruba twice prior to this trip and love it very much so what better place for Stephen to pop the question. Valerie and Stephen, congratulations and happy planning!

It was on June 4th, last year we’ve picked her up from the breeders, I periodically post images of here on the blog. I’ve previously posted this one below pretty close to when we’ve received her.

Here you have her on her first birthday. The entire family singing happy birthday. I was the photographer so I couldn’t get in on the fun but I did had my Sponge Bob party hat on. If you look closely you could also see Abhir our other family pet. He’ll get his one post with pictures soon.

Does it show that she’s trying hard to ignore the cake.

Now, this was totally not my idea but Shayenne’s. This is her posing in a dress, a real dress I might add.

Vogue!

No trick, no treat!

She loves to dance so she was having a little dance with Shayenne, really to show the dress.

This doggy bone cake was awaiting us after we got back from the photoshoot.

There’s a saying that goes like this; “No News Is Good News” and this is definitely the case with Bryan Morris Photography, Aruba’s Premier Wedding And Family Photographer. I haven’t posted on here for some time but I was pretty busy with quite a few Engagement Shoots and Family Portraits and also with my personal Flash Photography venture. I’ll soon be an official Aruban Strobist. I’m really enjoying the journey.
Stay tuned for the upcoming posts!
I’ll post a few images with many more to follow as a treat or teaser (however you look at it).
