liza + nicola - st thomas, us virgin islands part 3

Liza and Nicola were married last month in the US Virgin Islands on the island of St. Thomas. Liza told me "You were THE best choice we made for our wedding!". I was honored to have captured the most important day of their lives on such a gorgeous location.

This is the third post of the wedding. Scroll down and you will see posts 1 and 2. There were so many beautiful images that I had a hard time narrowing them down to just one post.

On the eve of their wedding, Liza and Nicola hired a yacht to take all of their guests out on the water for an amazing sunset cruise. It was a gift to their guests for making the long journey to their caribbean wedding.



The sunset was gorgeous. If you look close, you can see a cruise ship in the horizon as the sun was setting.


The next day we did a "trash the dress" session on the beautiful beaches of St. Thomas.




One of my favorite images.




Liza and Nicola, thank you so much for the opportunity of photographing your beautiful wedding. I wish you much love!!!!

This is part 2 of a 3 part post of Liza and Nicola's beautiful wedding in St. Thomas at the beautiful Marriott Frenchman's Reef last month.

There were so many beautiful images that I had to make this post into 3 parts. Stay tuned for more images this week!

Nicola's expression as he sees his bride walking down the aisle.


The garden ceremony was beautiful by the sea.

Smiles were abundant everywhere!




We made our way around the grounds of the Marriott Frenchman's Reef for some relaxed portraits.



This was my favorite.


Liza told me she loved silhouettes. Here you go , Liza!


Iguanas were plentiful on the island of St. Thomas.




The beaches were gorgeous.


So happy!

liza + nicola - st. thomas , us virgin islands part 1

1st, let me begin by saying this will be a 3 part post because there were so many beautiful images that I had a hard time narrowing them down! I absolutely love destination weddings. I have also photographed weddings in Anguilla and St. Kitts. I highly recommend them to every bride!

Liza and Nicola were married last month on the gorgeous island of St. Thomas in the US Virgin Islands. The wedding took place at the lovely Marriott Frenchman's Reef.

The weather was fantastic (in the mid - 80's) and sunshine everyday.


Here are a few scenic shots - can you feel the warmth on these chilly winter days?
