Rebecca's fiance was not into the engagement pics so she decided to use her beach visit as a sexy trash the dress shoot. We suggested doing what she did and go to the local shop "Baree Station" for this $20 dress that she used. It worked perfectly and didn't break the bank. The gaudy necklace and bracelet she wore worked perfect to set the scene for the photos.
Your photographer, with a full package, should offer a free engagement shoot to get to know you. That's one less thing to worry about the wedding day and great rememberance photos as well. Why not use it for something unique like this couple-hot!-Julie
October 23rd, 2009 - Susie and Joe
We love this house! It is in the 4X4 area of the island which means no roads, you drive on the sand to go to this location. There is always someone who gets stuck in the sand which adds to the excitement, so make sure to tell your guests! It's a great location for a smaller wedding where all guests are staying together in the house. For this family of 7, it was perfect. There is no more perfect pool area reception than this one. Suzie decided on Julie Dreelins Beach Productions photo/raw video package for this wedding. This custom package included 5 hours of photo and 5 hours of raw footage video for a discounted rate.
October 17th 2009 Double Wedding
At first the vendors doing this wedding at the Kilmarlic Club near the Outer Banks, NC were worried about logistics. Do the brides walk down the aisle at the same time, do they cut the cake at the same time? The question was asked, are they friends? Yes to all of them! This wedding photographed by Julie Dreelin and Lauren Cowart of Beach Productions ended up working out perfectly, thanks to their planner, Ocean Aisle Events's Julie Hume. She would say yes, the brides did put more pressure on the vendors having more food, more decorating, and more photography, but it did pay off. If Julie Hume can plan this event I would say she can plan anything!
Beach Productions photography suggests giving a grooms friend the job of making sure he is dressed properly and has all of the right clothing, etc. This way the groom doesn't have to worry or show up to the photo shoot with a crooked tie!
October 10th wedding - Stephanie and Curtis
Julie Dreelin's Beach Productions staff photographer Lauren Cowart photographed this wedding at the Village of Nags Head Golf Links in Nags Head, NC. Julie Dreelin talked with the bride and groom on planning the evening so that they could hit the sunset right on. At the last minute they decided to change around the first dance in order for Lauren to take advantage of an early glow to the sunset. Always talk with your photographer on planning around the sunset in a beach wedding. The photos afterwards are priceless!
