What an awesome time I had photographing Amelia (Ame) and Arturo (Art) this past weekend in Puerto Rico! I cannot begin to tell you how much fun we all had in “La Isla del Encanto–The Enchanted Island.” Puerto Rico is a gorgeous island and the good God blessed us with fantastic weather. We flew in on Friday for sunset photos by El Morro and some night shots within El Viejo San Juan. On Saturday, we spent the day in El Viejo San Juan to enjoy its colorful richness. Ame and Art are both an enchanting couple. I think their most valuable characteristic is that they truly know how to enjoy life. They are always in such laughter and joy it made our two-day trip fly by too fast! I would like to thank Ame’s family for giving us a place to stay Friday night and specially to Ame’s aunt for driving us back to the Airport so fast!
On the last image below, you will notice a photograph of Ame and Art by the fountains. Well, we had been planning that shot since the night before when I saw it as we were driving by. As our time on Saturday was closing and we had to catch our 3:45pm flight back home (I could not miss the bridal show on Sunday), we noticed that we were running out of time. Nonetheless, instead of going home, we took courage and decided to change, walk a few blocks to the fountain, and take some shots (all within 20 minutes). It was crazy and wild, but we did it!!!!! We drove really fast back home, grabbed our baggages and literally jetted to the airport where we made it in the nick of time all thanks to Ame’s Aunt!
This trip was fun, exciting, wild, and enchanting all at once!! I hope you enjoy a few of my favorite images here below:
Ame calls Art her "moon" and since the moon was out, she asked me if I could photograph them with it. Here is the end result. (right)
Thank you Ame and Art for the amazing experience in Puerto Rico! I look forward to your wedding in June!
