Bryan Morris – Aruba’s Premier Wedding Photographer

I’ve had the absolute pleasure of shooting family portraits of Jacki Dion and her family.

I’ve got to our appointed location and found them all there. Upon arrival I knew they were the family that I’ve had to photograph. We’ve never met before, we’ve only communicated by email so they were curiously looking in my direction wondering if I’m the photographer. The great give away was when I took my camera bag out of the car, then the expression of relief on their countenance was obvious. No more frowned eyebrows. They’ve been wondering for a while already, Is it him or not?

I’ve walked up to them and introduced myself to everyone in the party individually and we started with the shoot. These guys were the best, they were so easy going and up to anything. I’ve really had a blast with them and the two little ones are so adorable.

Here you have one complete family portrait.

 Here you have Jacki, her husband, Rich (Tell it like it is, he’s indeed rich to have such a great family). Their daughter Brianna and Sons, Lil Mike and Jason.

 This is Jacki’s parents, Linda & Ken.

 These are my future clients whenever Big Mike decides to pop the question. (Mike, what are you waiting on) I just know that they have to get married in Aruba and I’m hoping to be the photographer.

 Another family portrait………

 Brianna and her two little brothers, Lil Mike and Jason.

I just love this image. They were not asked to pose like this. I was taking another shot and turned around and found them like two lovebirds in this position. All I did was asked them to stay there and I shot it. That’s was so natural. Don’t they make a beautiful couple?

 Three generations: Grammy Linda, Momma Jacki and Brianna

Another traditional family shot. 

This shot caused tears to flow as this was a recreation of another shot…..It was awesome to experience.

My will shall shape the future. Whether I fail or succeed shall be no man’s doing but my own. I am the force; I can clear any obstacle before me or I can be lost in the maze. My choice; my responsibility; win or lose, only I hold the key to my destiny. - Elaine Maxwell

Keep this quote vivid in your mind, revisit if necessary. This is really a booster.

I don’t know where the ideology of a wedding being a bargain on Aruba compared to the US or Europe was conceived. I’ve heard this terminology both from couples planning on getting married on Aruba as well as the local wedding planners.

This thought, never cease to bewilder me. It really used to make me think that maybe I’m amiss in my ideals. I was compelled to analyze this thought from a variety of perspectives, mine as well as the wedding couple’s and the local wedding planners.

What I’ve concluded left me stupefied.

This is one of the many natural bridges on the island. It is said that we have 6 of which one collapsed 2+ years ago. The one that collapsed was the main one. We however have a few more that can be marveled over.

Serendipity Videography is based in Arizona. I’ve had the pleasure of working with Jeff from Serendipity Videography last year at a wedding. The first 15 minutes  talking to Jeff I’ve noted that Jeff was a videographer of high quality and after checking his bio it really confirmed my thoughts.

Many photographers abhor working with Videographers. Some must be really obnoxious as the saying goes ”where there is smoke there is fire”  nevertheless, there are quite a few repugnant photographers as well that keep walking into the videographer’s shot. I can’t say much about videographers but all the videographers I’ve worked with were very polite, Thank God!

The best option is for a photographer and videographer is to get along as they’ll be working together the entire day. Layout the ground rules from the beginning and you shouldn’t have any problems.

A couple months ago the final edit of the wedding we did together was delivered and I must say that the edit was phenomenal.

I’ve recently received the gratifying news that they’ve won the Arizona Bride Best of Brides 2008.

Anytime you decide to look for a videographer swing over to their site and check them out.  The good thing about them is they don’t confine themselves to Arizona, they do destination videography as well. So if you’re looking for  award winning wedding videography, you’re in the right hands.

The most favorite time of the day for me living in Aruba is sunset. I could never have enough sunset images.

Enjoy your Sunday.
