Melissa & Kevin's Cuban Wedding

What a wonderful trip I had over the past week documenting Melissa & Kevin’s wedding in Varadero, Cuba! This part of the World holds some special memories for them and I was honoured to be asked to capture it. It was so nice not only to photograph and film the wedding itself, but also to get to know everyone that came from Canada to attend their wedding over the course of the week.

We’re in the middle of preparing a video trailer to show at their Vancouver reception on April 4th and will post it here on our blog on Sunday, April 5th – so be sure to check back then! In the meantime, below are just some of the photographs that we took in Havana and of course on their wedding day.

Thanks again for bringing me down to Cuba – I can’t wait to show the trailer to all your guests!

***Update – I “may” have just posted a 40-second teaser video of Melissa + Kevin walking through the streets of Havana on the way to their photo shoot (look under all the pictures below)!

Here’s what happens when you put the Canon 5DmkII on a Glidecam:

Bruce…the photographs and video of my daughter and son-in-law’s wedding are stunning! I’m so glad you joined us in Cuba. You were relaxed, which put everyone at ease…while your excellent eye captured the celebration beautifully. Thank you!
