I once read somewhere that you always learn something after shooting a wedding and this something is usually due to a mistake you have committed, forgotten shots, wrong composition, under exposure, over exposure, what ever it may be you learn something. I learned quite a lot from my first Destination Wedding at the beautiful Barcelo Maya Beach Resort at Riviera Maya region in in  Mexico. I was there with one of my mentors David Toth who I learned so much from, more of it was just by observing the way he works and we talked some technical stuff and talked about differant types of clients but the biggest lesson I left from this trip was be true to yourself and no more feeling self conscious. Well this was only my fourth wedding and I was in a differant county, in the most beautiful beach I have ever been, shooting a destionation wedding and have David as my second shooter, it was an out of body experiance sort of when I got married as I was walking into the church. I did not know if I smiled or cried or where to look, I did not feel like myself. And at this wedding, I felt overwhelmed, self conscious, after all all eyes are on me as the pro and David has been doing this for what 15 years now, he knows better, let him take charge and I really could have given more in Cancun. I should have been more me, more in charge, more do this, more just the Bridal poses that now I am kicking myself in the butt for, but I am not sad, oh no, cause I jotted down what I did wrong, what I should have done and I know I will be back, Riviera awaits me and so do other places. Before I left for todays wedding, lots of bad things happen, but I was not gonna cry or pout but I was gonna make the best of it cause I know it all works out in the end. I am way behind with my editing and I know many would love to see the Cancun shots, but wait a little longer, here are some more shots of the fabulous Barcelo, and a sneak peak of the Bride and Groom. Ole!
