The Fashion show at The Somerset Resort, Turks and Caicos

Posted by Andy Mann

SomFashfrntThis is the third year we have helped the Somerset resort with its annual fashion show or “Fashionation”. With all local models, local designers, local makeup artists and the Somerset itself, its amazing what they are able to produce in a busy event and party season.

At the last count their were at least four other events all happening last Saturday evening- which for an island the size of Provo is a lot! It was a great show and even had a few cameo appearances from the Somerset team too!

Well done to Karen, Monique, Courtney and everyone else.

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!

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….

Miss Turks and Caicos Photo shoot and behind the scenes video

Posted by Andy Mann

MISSTCI09frntFor the last 3 or even 4 years we have been delighted to help the Turks and Caicos Tourist Board with a photo shoot of the contestants for Miss Turks and Caicos (or Miss Earth TCI – I think it is this year?).

We do it for free, it’s fun and the girls are great to work with. This year it’s a little more low-key (naturally) so it was just a quick two-hour shoot near our studio and on Grace Bay Beach.

Getting married in 2010 – is this your style?

Posted by Andy Mann

blog-frntAfter attending the Engage 09 event in Cayman last month – a meeting of high end wedding professionals from several countries – I have been keeping in touch / following several people including Marcy Blum who has a fab new blog – on her blog she highlights several trends that she would like to see “disappear” (I agree with almost all of them).

Anyway she also mentioned the trend of dancing down the aisle – then today I got this…..

Alison and Brad’s Wedding at The Sands on Grace Bay Beach, Turks and Caicos

Posted by Andy Mann

Buysee_frntAbout an hour before the wedding I got a call from NILA Destinations – the groom was running a little late – he was currently sitting in the Doctor’s office on an IV drip and under doctor’s orders to “rest”…..but the wedding was going ahead – he hoped… It’s moments like this that define people. Would the bride be OK? I could only imagine what state Alison might be in. Clearly this wasn’t going to be a “run of the mill” wedding – it was going to need flexibility, “thinking on our feet” and a delicate touch. If you are even thinking about have a wedding WITHOUT a planner or other professionals – this is exactly why you need them!
