Are they really?
I wonder who’s the dishonest person that came up with that quote. Anyway, there’s none of that here. I’ve promised you that I’ll be featuring a few weddings from last year that I haven’t blogged. So, with no further ado, I present to you Mrs and Mrs Eklund. They were married on the beach at the Divi, the ladies of Aruba Weddings For You, again did a superb job with the setup.
Nina Boo and Stefan Eklund came all the way from Sweden to promise each other an eternal life together. We really appreciate the fact that they’ve chosen Aruba our island for such an important milestone in their life. And above that I’m elated that I was chosen to document the event.
I don’t take it for granted when people come from abroad to get married on Aruba. They could’ve chosen anywhere else.
They are really in love and easy going, this really shows in the images that we’ve captured. They didn’t mind getting low to get some different angles.
Blessings,

Enjoying each other in the garden.
Are they in love or what?
So easy going so romantic.
Walking down the sand isle.
What a simple and yet beautiful setup. Less is more.
Detail shot of the rings.
The first kiss.
The toast!
A piece of art.
Getting comfy in the garden.
Detail of the flowers.

A perfect Saturday evening on the pristine powder white beaches of Aruba, Melanie Harris and Joel Cooper promised to remain at each others side until death do them part at the Eagle Beach. It was a very casual setting. They were accompanied by their close relatives and loved ones. Rev Gibson was the officiant. They were all smiles the entire evening with each other. See for yourself in the images. Melanie and Joel when the not so nice seasons approach you, just holds hands look in each others eyes and smile just as you’ve smilled on your weding day. Know that those dark seasons are nothing but seasons. We all go through them from time to time. Aruba Weddings were the wedding planners for this evening, who did a great job in setting this up.

Her name is pronouced “Tee”.
Destiny brought her to Sweden as a little girl from Vietnam, where she grew into a beautiful young woman.
Faith had it that as she grew up she would work in the restaurant where she met Tommy. It was love at first sight. Tommy became a regular customer of that restaurant just to stop by and see Thy.
After requesting Thy’s hand in marraige from her parents. He proposed to her about a month later on bended knee in a restaurant in Bastad, a popular summer retreat in Sweden.
The wedding plans began and after consulting some travel experts in Sweden they were advised to come to Aruba. After them doing their own research, their unanimous decision was Aruba.
They tied the knot on Sept 10, 2007 at the Bucuti Beach Resort . Nashette, the wedding planner did a marvelous job at preparing everything as the couple raved about not being able to ask for more. These guys are so in love you can see it in every shot. They were just so natural in front of the camera and you could really see their emotions through the images.
Thy and Tommy, may you live a happy life together. May God bless your marraige. We’re right here anxiously waiting for you to come back to our island, Aruba.
Blessings,

Photography for me started out as a hobby and then it became too expensive so after quite a few years of practicing photography as an expensive hobby with a few paid gigs here and there, On June 1st, 2003 I’ve registered myself at the chamber of commerce which officially launched me as a small business owner. Since then it’s been work, work, work. Not much time has been allocated anymore to shooting for fun.
I’ve been monitoring the sunset for a few days already and yesterday I’ve decided to go out around sunset and shoot a few frames. It was not as nice as I would’ve liked it to be but I’ve worked with it as much as I could’ve and find that I’ve still managed to get some great shots of which I’ll post one that I really like. I really enjoy the sunset and I enjoy shooting it even more.
While out shooting the sunset it just dawned on me how blessed I am. In this industry that I work I meet people from all over the world and all walks of life and speaking to them I learn that some people are not as privileged as us to be able to see as sunset on a regular basis and we tend to take it for granted that we have the sunset. While going through with my thoughts it made me realize that I’m really blessed to live where people come on vacation, meaning I’m kinda, sorta always on vacation. I’m really grateful for this privilege in life to be able to live on this little rock Aruba, www.aruba.com I’ll make it a priority to go out and shoot a little more to illustrate to you a little of my island.
