Before the I Do

I truly love pre wedding sessions.

It’s the one moment where we can slow down. No timelines. No pressure. No guests waiting. Just us walking through Antigua Guatemala together.

I get to show them my city the way I see it. The hidden corners. The light I’ve been studying for years. The random wall that suddenly becomes magic. In Antigua, everywhere you look, there’s something you can use if you’re paying attention.

It’s also the day I get to experiment a little. I can get them dirty without guilt. We sit on cobblestones. We lean against old walls. We chase light. We laugh. We move.

But more than photos, that day builds trust.

They see how I work. How I direct. How I observe. How I care about the small details. And by the time the wedding day comes, they’re completely confident. They’re relaxed. They know they’re in good hands.

Pre wedding sessions are not just about pictures.

They’re about connection.

And connection changes everything on the wedding day.
