El Far Wedding Photography | Costa Brava

March 24, 2015 | 2 Comments

El Far Wedding PhotographySettled among olive trees high on the cliffs of he Costa Brava you can find a gem of a little hotel called El Far (in Llafranc), where Margot and Philippe’s super stylish September wedding took place. It doesn’t get any more Mediterranean than this and any wedding photographer would have been very lucky to capture such a hip, relaxed but still mega fab event!

The French couple living in Dubai wanted a seaside setting for their big bash where all their guest could take in the scenery but party until the wee hours as well. The Far’s beautiful hermitage was decorated with thousands of cascading baby breath, the decoration was all blue and white and wine & cava was flowing freely! Have I mentioned the stunning Jenny Packham dress and YSL Tribtoo shoes that Margot was wearing?! 

This wedding was certainly one of the highlights of my season last year and I was very happy to see it on the fab digital pages of Belle&Chic too.

I very much look forward to returning to shoot another cool destination wedding in the Far in June! 🙂

Costa Rica Travel Diary

March 5, 2015 | 2 Comments

Costa Rica Wedding PhotographyAt the end of January me and the Mr packed our bathing suits, rash vests, hiking boots and my 35mm film camera and set out on an almost two week journey to Costa Rica. We were looking for guaranteed sunshine, beach with the promise of adventure and Costa Rica was just that AND more. I spent a considerable amount of time planning this trip, gathering recommendations, tips and deciding which areas to visit so maybe this travel diary could be interesting for some of you considering or planning a trip there too. Ready, set, GO!

The first 5 days of our vacation we spent surfing in Santa Teresa, a remote but very beautiful beach town in the Nicoya peninsula. It’s very hard to describe this place… have you seen the movie “The Beach”…. it’s like that! Once we got through the long and not so comfortable journey we arrived to this dusty little town which at first seemed like a Quicksilver commercial. Extremely attractive and über cool surfer boys and girls roaming the streets, wild horses running on the beach and practically no sign of mass tourism! In fact it seems like Santa Teresa is a haven for surf loving expats who spend a few months of each year here or even decided to move permanently! We stayed in a cool tree-house type lodge, the Canaima Chill House which we absolutely loved. Big bedrooms, absolute relaxation, the only negative I’d mention that you need to go with a car everywhere as its located up a very steep road approx 400m from the beach. Every restaurant we went to had a very healthy menu, coconut milk coffee, chia pudding, eggwhite omelettes, smoothies and juices…. exactly my kind of cuisine! 🙂 Our favourites were Zwart Cafe and The Bakery.  I have witnessed some of the most amazing sunsets of my life in Santa Teresa (and I have been spoilt with some gorgeous Ibiza sunsets already) just unreal…. the beach clubs are very different here too (Rocamar Beach Club and Ranchos Itauna were amazing)… no fuss, no bling, everyone barefoot gathers around the fire while the DJ spins his sunset chill out tunes. Mega love!

Costa Rica Wedding PhotographyCosta Rica Wedding PhotographyThe second part of our journey took us to the famous Arenal Volcano… a must see according to every travel book & blog I’ve seen. Well…. in the 3 days we spent there we haven’t actually got to see the volcano as most of the times it’s covered by clouds and while the area is naturally extremely blessed, after Santa Teresa’s purity this seemed to be the typical example of a beautiful place being ruined by mass tourism, Burger King and the likes. We expected wild, lush forests, but actually the hiking routes are all asphalted and you even have to pay an entrance fee… reminded me of a theme park instead of wild nature. Also, mental note…. the rain forest is called rain forest because it’s raining most of the time! (I know! :)) Even though Arenal hasn’t impressed me much, we were lucky to spend those few days in one of the world’s best hotels (nr 2 according to Tripadvisor in the world), the Nayara Hotel Spa & Gardens. Pure bliss, best service, absolutely recommended. We also took part in a white water rafting trip  which was such an amazing adrenalin flush, my first but definitely not last time rafting! 

Arenal Volcano Wedding PhotographyTo finish off our trip we wanted to spend the last few days somewhere on the beach in a hammock with a good book. We found the absolute perfect hotel… the Alma del Pacifico! It’s in a very quite area, but very easily accessible from the capital/airport. Our beach villa was just out of this world… we spent the last days floating in our private pool watching the tide come in and sipping Bloody Mary’s. The hotel also hosts many weddings and I could hardly imagine a more ideal setting so if any one of you is searching for a destination wedding location, definitely have a look!  One of the absolute highlights of the trip was the sunset horse riding trip on the beach… I felt like we were in a cheesy romantic movie as Alex and I cantered on the empty beach with sea water splashing around…. huhhhhh back to reality now! 

Overall this was definitely one of my favourite vacations ever and I’d happily return in a heartbeat. Anyone planning to get married in Costa Rica? Take me with you! 🙂

Belle Route Family Session in Barcelona

March 2, 2015 | 4 Comments

Barcelona Family Session on Film

If you’ve been following me on Facebook, Instagram or any of my social media outlets, by now you probably heard that I’ve teamed up with Esther to give a one day super intensive (hence the name bootcamp :)) wedding marketing workshop in Barcelona on the 21st of March. (more info HERE). Esther and I share a very similar journey to where we are today, two foreigners making it work in a totally new industry, in a new country where we didn’t know anyone and because we met very early on in our journeys we have been following & supporting each others ever since. What we have found, is that it doesn’t matter if you’re a blogger, a photographer (or a florist, designer, planner, caterer… etc) in the wedding sector,  the basic principles of reaching your ideal clients, communicating effectively and making your dream job work for you are the same! We’d love to share what we’ve learned along the way!

I’m very proud to share with you today a few images of Esther and her family from a session earlier this year from Barcelona. This was my first ever session FULLY on film. Oh I’m in love… a blog post is brewing about my new found love for the old medium but for now… please let me introduce you through my pictures to my “Belle Route” partner in crime Esther and her beautiful little family.
