Baja Wedding Photographers

Wind-blown sand dunes, a decadent private villa, the intimate luxury of Capella Pedregal - Orieta & Jay's Cabo destination wedding had it all! The Calgary couple were up for anything, and it was fun trekking out to some new desert locations to capture the spirit of Baja in their wedding photos. Some of our favorites from their day...

Orieta gets ready at Capella Pedregal resort.

Gorgeous!

Love the architecture at Capella - clean modern backdrop for portraits.


Capella's famous glass-blown hearts.

Dramatic vistas at a Pedregal private villa





My fav is image below on the right - can't beat a real smile at your husband-to-be!

Chris' favorite.

A little wilderness adventure - as I always say, if your wedding dress gets a little dusty, it means you had fun on your wedding day!










Back at Capella, a good luck kiss from her daughter before walking down the aisle.

Married!

Congrats to Orieta & Jay and hope to see you wild westerners in Calgary soon!

Lace Wedding Dresses: Little or alot?

This morning I woke up to the most beautiful wedding dresses on Pinterest courtesy of Martha Stewart Weddings.  Are you a little bit of lace or a cover me in lace kind of girl?

A great idea for the party on the dance floor

If you're having the best band ever at your wedding and you have that great group of friends who love to party, would totally jump on stage with the band (bands typically hate this by the way), love to sing along - here is a fun idea.

When the song comes on that everyone loves to sing along to (really loud), when they've had a few cocktails and are having an amazing time... pass these out to everyone.

Yes, it is a plastic Microphone and its bound to bring great fun and hilarious pictures & video.

Want to give a hint for the fun to come? Update your wedding website with the lyrics to the microphone song(s) - but don't say why.  You can also print the lyrics on the back of your dinner menus.

Great sing along songs:

Living on a prayer, Bon Jovi

Don't stop believin, Journey

Brown eyed girl, Van Morrison

Benny and the Jets, Elton John

The hot new sing a long song: We are young, Fun

Quick Tip: Always make sure your photographer and videographer are prepared in advance for this kind of surprise because this, you will want to see again.
