Santiago Engagement Session | Kata y Gabriel

February 3, 2012

This is one hell of an amazing couple. Both doctors, they dedicate their time to working in public hospitals. I’m so proud to know people like them. Clearly they could be making a fortune working for the private health care system. And yes, one day they’ll have to work at least part time for the private system in order to live the kind of life that would also give their future children the opportunity to become doctors if they wanted.

But Kata and Gabriel both believe so strongly that the public health care system is where they have learned and grown as doctors that they owe it to society to give back. And so they’re putting their time and effort into working in public hospitals right now.

I LOVE THEM. I love them, not just for that but because they are beautiful people from the inside out, kind to those around them, giving, smart, funny…everything you could ever ask for in friends.

And did I mention they’re ridiculously photogenic???

Enjoy :)

Isn’t this light and shadow cool here? I love it!

Wow, I ADORE this last photo!!!!!!

Chile Destination Wedding, Frutillar | Vale y Stanley

January 30, 2012

Way back in December I posted Vale and Stanley’s Trash the Dress session (complete with a volcano and everything!) but I haven’t posted the photos from their gorgeous destination wedding in Southern Chile yet.

The big event was held in the quaint town of Frutillar. It’s tiny, but full of personality.

Vale and Stanley’s friends and family came from all over to celebrate with them in a warm, intimate ceremony and reception. The day was so relaxed and happy…I wish we could shoot a million more with the same great vibe. Vale and Stanley laughed and laughed all day long and didn’t worry their pretty little heads about a single thing. They were kind and gracious to everybody who traveled down South for the wedding, the best hosts anyone could ask for. The wedding was more than just an event, it was a whole experience for people who made the trip!

We had an amazing time shooting this wedding. I absolutely adore this couple and their easy-going spirit and their simple joy and love of life. I hope that comes through in their photos.

PS. GIANT thank you to Leo Druker for coming down to shoot with us! He’s an incredible photographer and it was a pleasure to have him travel with us…again! Leo, let’s keep meeting up in random places around the world :)

Vale’s mom is gorgeous and graceful, I see where Vale gets it from.

I am so so drawn to this shot of the hands and the rosary. I don’t know why. Except maybe it’s because I just typed rosemary and then paused and though, “Wait a second…that’s not right…”

OBSESSED with this shot. Obsessed.

I love when couples dance cueca at their weddings! It’s not a dying tradition, that makes me smile.
