[ updated and re-posted back from January 2010 ]
I don’t know from where to start describing my feelings about me going to my home country to shoot a wedding. Since most of couples in Lebanon seems to fall in the traditional style when it comes to photography, Laura and Wissam are not any ordinary couple. They wanted something different , something fresh and mostly fun. Its the type of couple you want to spend the whole aftern0on with taking pictures, having an ice-cream and few drinks. We went to the city of Byblos and walked around the Marina and the old market. It’s said that Byblos is to be the oldest inhabited city in the world, the source of the first Phoenician letters that gave us our alphabet. Even if it was December, the weather was just amazing for an outdoor photo session . Thank you Laura and Wissam for the opportunity you gave me and for everything. Hope you enjoy the pictures.

Let me start by saying I don’t do trash the dress often . But when it happens its a lot of fun and the results are always out of this world.

Jamie and Melissa are such a beautiful couple and we were so looking forward for the next day after the wedding to shoot some pictures around the resort and on the beach .

It was a warm sunny day now in Varadero , Cuba. The preparations were are the resort before the ceremony and reception to be held at the Casa Dupont. Dina was surrounded by her sisters, her mom and her little angle during the preparations in the morning. While Renie was taking it easy in the pool with friends and few drinks to start the wedding day on the fun side. We left the resort by car to the venue while the Dina took a horse ride. After the ceremony we took an hour for few pictures around sunset and then we hit the dance floor for some hot music time. The very next day, we went for a trash the dress session with the bridal party. Hope you enjoy the slideshow .

Fun E-session with Reve and Wissam in Lebanon

I have met Reve and Wissam through facebook and we got to meet in Lebanon where I was heading for a wedding in December. It was exciting to shoot for the first time in my home country and capture the beauty of the place. Wissam and Reve did their home work before I arrive and they actually did go scouting for locations and were kind enough to drive me around from one location to another. From the souk of Zouk to the train station passing in down town Beirut , we spent 2 days capturing fun imaging and having a good time.

After a week of vacation on the beautiful beach of Cuba, it was hard to get back to the real routine life of everyday. I was lucky with this busy wedding season to be able to escape for a week under the sun with 5 of my buddies .
