Maylin and Michael had a truly elegant and unique destination wedding. We started the day with an exciting and fun photo session in the Casco Viejo neighborhood of Panama City. Known for its gorgeous colonial architecture, it was the perfect setting for wedding photos. The church was an equally beautiful setting. Especially for an evening wedding ceremony. Many couples have concerns about how their pictures will look in a dark environment. This is one of many situations where it is extremely important to work with a professional wedding photographer. Specifically one who has experience working with all types of lighting situations. The technical challenges of your wedding venues should be easily resolved so your photographer can concentrate on capturing the emotion, joy, and love of your wedding day. This is one of my favorite images. The excitement of the bride and her father was felt by everyone.
Not only did Maylin and Michael choose stunning locations to host their wedding, but they really know how to throw a great party! The cocktail hour on the roof top of The Intercontinental allowed guests to enjoy the breathtaking skyline of Panama City. The bride and groom joined the party by entering into their first dance with confetti, sparklers, and a fireworks display.
After a classic and refined meal the dancing began with a carnival of dancers and musicians. This was the point in the night where I smiled at my amazing second shooter, Laura Meyer, and said “are we lucky or what?” This feeling was not only because we had the opportunity to photograph such a great wedding. Maylin, Michael, their family and friends welcomed us with open hearts and generous spirits. We were included in all of the meals, celebrations, and even some dancing. My sincerest gratitude goes to this couple for allowing me to experience Panama, and to enjoy a wonderful weekend with new friends.
