A 9-11 love story – Aaron & Candi at Villa Renaissance

Posted by Chris Mann

Hark-thumbSeptember 11th is a date that of course will always be remembered for the tragedy of the attacks on New York and Washington in 2001 – but thankfully there are also happier reasons to remember that date.

For Aaron and Candi from Virginia, 9/11 had special significance before 2001 – it was the day of their first date ten years ago, and also the day they got married in 2004!

This year, they came to stay at Villa Renaissance on Grace Bay, Provo to celebrate their fifth anniversary – and Aaron organized a surprise vows renewal for Candi – and a photo session with Tropical Imaging! Read the rest of this entry »

Shinaaz and Chris’ engagement session

Posted by Andy Mann

Adamo-frntAs both Shinaaz and Chris live in the Turks and Caicos we picked a great day to do their quick and easy engagement session. They both wanted something fun and simple -  so earlier this week we did just that !

It was delightful  – the connection they have is wonderful to see and they were BOTH game enough to go the whole nine yards and really get into it. The wedding is going to be so much fun!

Ten ways to “pop the question” in Turks and Caicos.

Posted by Andy Mann

Sandpiper_frntWell summer is virtually over in the US  and the autumn/winter season always brings on a flurry of proposals.

It’s also not uncommon for us to hear that the reason why many brides choose the Turks and Caicos for their wedding was that they had previously been on vacation here or were proposed to in the TCI – so we thought we’d give the guys a helping hand with some ideas.

Enjoy!

Family Time!

Posted by David Gallardo

Sangster_004smallAfter two weddings, boat trips, rehearsal dinners, and a few busy weeks with lots of planing for the Sangster and the Pollon families they decided to have one family portrait just before everyone gets back to home countries.

It was fun and easy for Chris and I because we already knew everyone from all the previous events we had already done with all of them and it was great to see everyone so relaxed and having such a great time.

For the start of the photo shoot we took some photos around the Ocean Club West Resort and we continued on a very quiet Grace Bay beach where all enjoyed another great sunny afternoon.

Kristen and Tamir’s engagement session.

Posted by Andy Mann

Tamir0074frntWhat a fabulous couple. A few days ago I sat down and chatted with Kristen and Tamir about their wedding next May. It was great that they could spend a few days down in the Turks and Caicos planning their wedding with the help of Diane from Island Harmony. Such visits make all the difference – it gives couples such a peace of mind to have seen everything. It was then delightful to meet up with them again a couple of hours later to do a small shoot on the beach.

Tropical Imaging signs agreement with Extreme Music.

Posted by Andy Mann

Tubridy_495We are so excited that we’ll finally been able to work out an agreement with probably the best music production sources available anywhere. Finding the right music for our projects has always been a challenge. We want to be legal and not use regular music, but at the same time cannot stand budget quality “elevator music” that is available “royalty free”. We think we’ve found the perfect solution….

The wedding of Kirsty and Ben Pollon

Posted by David Gallardo

Pollon_254smallFrom the first time I met with Kirsty and Ben at our office I knew this was going to be a very fun wedding to photograph and especially knowing that lots of people that I know on the island were attending their wedding.

Kirsty and Ben met while working on a private yacht and they decided to celebrate their wedding in the Turks & Caicos because Ben grew up in the islands and his family and lots of his friends are still living here.

The wedding ceremony took place on the beautiful property of Dawn Beach House located at the end of Grace Bay beach. After the wedding ceremony and some family photos at the beach everyone went to the

Magnolia wine bar and restaurant for the wedding reception.
