Jolly Beach Hotel. Antigua. Brian and Valerie

Posted on Monday, November 1st, 2010

Brian contacted me last year about his June wedding at Jolly Beach Hotel and their 40-50 guests flying in from the USA. All the major details prior to the wedding were discussed via email. 2 days before the wedding I met with Brian and Valerie on property, I don’t have much time to get to know my clients but i think it’s very important to make time. In one of Brian’s emails quote “The more and more we explore the different photographers on the island, the more and more we think you’re the photographer for us. I am a professional cameraman in New York City and an amateur photographer. You have a great eye for composition and your photos are just amazing! ” Not that Brian’s just a professional cameraman but he works for CNN, no pressure on my shoulders!! :) One thing they knew best, is how to party and still be up for an early TTD session!!
