Hello my friends! :)
About a month ago, and then again a couple of weeks ago, I had the opportunity to work wih my friend José Pablo in a couple of photoshoots in an incredibly gorgeous new golf resort called La Reunión, in Antigua Guatemala.
The first couple: newlyweds who had just spent the night before in one of the very nice suites of the resort. Here are a few of my favorite shots from Sasha and Will’s shoot.
The second couple: a soon-to-be married couple that was celebrating their legal marriage just a few minutes after the photoshoot. This was more of an e-session, but a formal one! So here are some of my favorite photos from Lilibeth and Aaron’s photoshoot:
About a couple of months ago, one of my brothers asked me to take some family portraits for him because he wants to decorate his house with some new, different photos. I took the “different” part very seriously! Because I thought, what if I take these photos at his house? Everyone would feel comfortable, the kids could be themselves… it would work perfectly!
And so we did it. We organized ourselves and they got ready one Sunday morning. The day was gorgeous, sunny and bright, which made it perfect for some “natural light” type of photos. I was very pleased with the result! I think the whole photoshoot turned out great, everyone’s personality shines in every shot and I liked that! So here are a few, hope you enjoy them!! :)
Hello everyone!! :D
This is another version of a post I made earlier this year on my spanish blog called: black and white madness!! And now, I have quite a few new black and white shots that I’ve taken since I posted that last ‘madness’ deal, and thought about giving it a second part!
So I chose a few of my latest shots for you, and hope you enjoy them!! :)

Take care and hope you’re having a great week!!
A year ago, I was completely unaware of the fact that I was going to end up working as a photographer… a wedding photographer, actually. But since my friend José Pablo asked me to help him with a few weddings in January this year, I started looking at weddings from an entirely different perspective.
One of the first things he told me was about how one as a photographer, grows fonder of the bride and groom from the wedding(s)… which, at first I thought it really wasn’t that true, but as my first wedding took place I immediatly knew he was right! The bride and groom were complete sweethearts!! The bride was even calling me Anita (which is like saying ‘little Ana’, most of my friends call me that) and it felt so nice because it felt as if they were really putting their trust on us to capture the most special moments from their big day. At the end of the party (well, the end for us :P) I was completely exhausted! but feeling so happy and accomplished because I thought it was a very special and unique experience.
Of course this one being my first wedding didn’t really make me an expert or anything like that from the beginning, so after a few suggestions from my friend, I was ready for my next wedding! And after that we had wedding after wedding after wedding, and my ‘wedding photographic eye’ grew even more and more with every wedding we had. I was so happy and excited about that! So here I am now, working as a photographer and loving it more than I thought I would!!
The beauty of wedding photography though, is beyond all that… in my case (and in my opinion), I think it’s a very special type of work simply because you’re not photographing any type of party. It’s a wedding, something most women have planned and dreamed about ever since they were little, and there we are with front row seats to witness that unique day for both the bride and the groom! We sometimes even get special views from when the bride is getting ready, the little details on which everyone has put so much effort on, the look on the family members’ faces to see their daughter/son getting ready to take a very important step on their lives. And to know that those special little moments that happen during that day will be captured by our cameras, is something unexplainably beautiful… because you know that whenever the newlyweds (their families and friends) look at their photos they will live those moments all over again, and that’s actually very true once you see the big grins on their faces while going through their photos! So that’s what I think makes wedding photography so beautiful and special, capturing the most meaningful moments and details of that very special day. ;)
Thank you very much for your visit!! hope you have a wonderful week!!
Greetings everyone!!
After some time of consideration, I thought about opening an english, photography blog… since I already had one, but in spanish (given the fact that it’s my native language, hehe). So here I am, introducing myself into the english blogging world! ;)
I’m from Guatemala and a self-taught photographer, being a freelance photographer on my own and working on wedding photography with a very good friend of mine. Thanks to his help and the help of a couple of other photographer friends, I’ve grown a lot as a photographer. So here I am, sharing with you a little bit of my work and how much it means to me. Therefore, I hope you enjoy it!! :)
