Amanda + Jordan | Wedding Photographer Playa Del Carmen, Mexico

 I met Amanda and Jordan through my sister and brother-in-law.  They have become friends as they attend family birthdays and dinner parties.  When they got engaged last fall and Amanda started to talk about her beach wedding, I was thrilled to be asked to be the photographer.  We arrived in Playa del Carmen, Mexico (a resort area about 1 hour south of Cancun) on Boxing Day.  The next day was the wedding so not a lot of time to get acquainted with the area, but an early morning run on the beach introduced me to this paradise like location.  The location was the Sandos Playacar resort and it was lovely.  The wedding was a small and intimate affair on the beach (well if 100 people watching from their reclining chairs on the beach is small and intimate).  We had a lot of fun, both the day of the wedding, the sunrise trash the dress session the next morning (images coming this week), and the rest of the week.  Enjoy Amanda and Jordan.

Every bride needs a picture with the policia federal on her wedding day!

One of my favourites from Amanda & Jordan's wedding day...stay tuned this week for the sunrise Trash the Dress images.
