Coral is such a beautiful color to use on a beach wedding. Chelsey and Doug chose it perfectly for their big day. It gave it that whole relax ambience of the event. And everyone was just full of exuberance! They also provided barefoot sandals for the ladies to use. It was every bit of what a simple beach wedding should be with loads of fun included.
Photographer Sara Stankiewicz tells us about her experience in shooting this lovely pair and how she was able to capture these breathtaking photos –
Just as expected Chelsey and Doug’s wedding day in Jamaica was filled with so much laughter and emotion. There were so many favorite moments of mine such as Chelsey’s Dad seeing her for the first time, Doug seeing Chelsey for the first time as she walks towards him down the aisle, and the amazing speeches that I had the privilege of listening to (I teared up…a lot!). But I think my favorite moment of all was when it started to drizzle rain and I had just started to photograph Chelsey and Doug on their own by the beach. I said “Okay guys, are you okay being out in this rain?!” Not for one second did they second guess; just being in the moment and going with it. Chelsey was barefoot and her dress was dragging in the sand while it was sprinkling rain and I thought to myself, this girl knows what its about! I love it! They laughed and played through the whole thing. It warmed my heart. Thanks to their wonderful attitudes I was able to quickly capture some fun, fresh, and organic photographs of them and every second was like a dream to me.
The look on Chelsey’s face after Doug put her wedding ring on — just priceless!
