July 11, 2009 – Playa Del Carmen, Mexico

A breathless destination + a stunning couple + a wicked cool bridal party = very lucky photographers… we could not have asked for anything more.  Whitney and Jennifer from One Luv Agency came along and did an amazing job (as usual) styling hair and make up for Lausanne and her bridesmaids

Lausanne and Jimmy not only introduced us to a beautiful location but they are over all really, really genuine people – the kind of couple that I would love to be friends with and share great times with.

After the ceremony they arranged for a traditional Shell Toss where all of their guests make a wish on a shell and toss it into the ocean – this little guy must have some big dreams…

The cocktail after the ceremony was a great celebration with the talents of Stephanie from Ajua Weddings– the mariachi blared and the drinks rolled in as all of the congrats and well wishes made their way to the new Mr. & Mrs.

And the festive reception took place at Ajua Maya! Restaurant – dinner was delicious!  I am ready to take the trip again just for the great dining experience!  Lausanne and Jimmy took their first dance to a whole new level – it was an impressive show…

So if all of this wasn’t great enough, they iced our adventure cake with a spectacular bridal session in a Mayan cenote… seriously, we could not have been luckier.

Sanne & Jimmy:  We had a spectacular week with you, your wonderful friends and your accommodating family – thank you for letting us into your world to capture such a great time in your lives.
