So lucky to work in Turks & Caicos all the time!

Posted by Andy Mann

greatrex_frnt.jpgWe have been having some simply fabulous weather over the last few weeks. Day after day of perfect blue skies and sunshine with a great cooling tradewind to keep things in the low 80s…. We have also been lucky enough to help several families with some fun photo shoots. The Greatrex family actually live in the TCI (all our kids go to the same school) - so it was a real pleasure to help them recently with some simple, fun, family photos.

It’s always a pleasure to photograph a family more than once, twice, three times?

Posted by Andy Mann

parnellfrnt.jpgThe vast majority of our clients come to the Turks & Caicos Islands as visitors and as such we typically only have the opportunity to photograph them once. However recently we seem to helping many more families again and again and it’s really a wonderful “pat on the back” for us - we must be doing something that they like!

With the Parnell family in particular, we have been fortunate to help them on several occasions - this last Sunday was a wonderful family session at the local restaurant ,”The Conch Shack”. Read the rest of this entry »

Dancing in the dark with Brook and Peter

Posted by Chris Mann

bock_150.jpgLast Saturday’s wedding at The Somerset on Grace Bay was a little different from our typical weddings - Brook and Peter from New York held their wedding ceremony after sunset in accordance with Jewish tradition - so we had to bring our video lights and flash equipment so that we could cover the ceremony, which was outdoors on the beach.

We’ve covered wedding ceremonies like this a few times before so it’s not a problem - and although the ceremony coverage is not quite so straightforward on the technical side as with a daytime wedding, we always have a great time photographing the preparations as the sun goes down, and also the dancing at the reception afterwards - and this wedding was no exception.

Lots of new ideas for ‘08 at the Wedding Photographers’ convention

Posted by Chris Mann

tampa_150.jpgWe’re always on the lookout for new tips and techniques to help us take better and more creative photographs, so earlier this month I went to Tampa in Florida to attend the annual convention of the Digital Wedding Forum.

The DWF is a worldwide association of photographers who specialize in weddings and portraits, and most of our industry’s top practitioners - including 9 out of 10 of the world’s top ten wedding photographers - are members. So I was keen to hear from some of the “best of the best” what’s new in wedding and portrait photography. Read the rest of this entry »
