Brittany and Paola are real-life partners that married each other just a few months before this styled shoot. I was told by Brittany that their wedding came with a lot of heartbreak and baggage because both of their parents chose not to attend.
I wanted the two to relive their wedding day but in a more positive light. I was inspired to create a very soft intimate styled shoot setting filled with light colors directly on the beach. They were overjoyed, their favorite part was jumping in the water and being free without any judgment! After the shoot, I received a thank you message from the Brittany and Paola saying, “Today was perfect. This came with no baggage, no hurt, no pain, just pure happiness.” —Brittany Dunbar, photographer
