I’m so excited to share Evan and Shelby’s Saint Thomas wedding with you today!

They had an intimate wedding at beautiful Villa Serenita. This house is located on the east side of the island and is perfect to host all the events of a wedding day. It has enough space for everyone to comfortably get ready. I’m in love with the main room that the bride gets dressed in. The large windows are perfect for photos.

There was a little note on my timeline that said “parent’s first look”. I had no idea that this would be such a moving event. I still can’t look at these photos without getting a little emotional. Such a sweet and powerful moment.

Evan and Shelby decided to do a “first touch.” They wanted to have a private moment together before the ceremony but keep with tradition and see each other for the first time as Shelby walked down the aisle.

The ceremony was so special. They both wrote their own wedding vows and it was amazing how similar they were.

I’m so thrilled to share Brett and Alex’s St. Thomas wedding photographs! I might have a few too many for just one post, but I can’t help it—they are such a beautiful couple and their day was so so so crazy pretty! They held their wedding at Villa Serenita, The Wedding House, in the morning. It was one of those perfect Caribbean days for a wedding.

They did a first look prior to the ceremony. I think Brett loved the dress almost as much as me…

After the ceremony we had a first dance, a little cake, and for the reception TACOS!!!!! I would never think tacos for a wedding but who doesn’t love tacos and why wouldn’t you want a taco for any occasion?!

I’m so excited to share Peter and Jacqueline’s St. John engagement session with you all. Jacqueline had seen a photo I had made at the Trunk Bay overlook and just had to recreate it and see it for herself. I’m so thrilled we did—I just love her fire red dress against this backdrop, it makes me so filled with joy! Here are a few of my favorite photographs from our time together…
