BEACH ELOPEMENT, FLORIDA /  by Ricardo Quintana

EN: Watching my niece hugging her parents with tears of joy for their elopement in Florida, was one of the most beautiful things I've ever photographed. All my best to Karen and Pablo.

SP: Ver a mi sobrina abrazar a sus padres, emocionada con lagrimas de felicidad por el matrimonio de sus padres en Florida, es hasta el momento uno de los momentos mas hermosos que he fotografiado.

Suggested song "Ordinary People" by John Legend.

 

After the amazing ceremony  in Florida  we had a bonus dinner with the family in Salt Lake, Utah. More hugs, food,  tears of joy and pictures!

BOHME BOUTIQUE BEST OF /  by Ricardo Quintana

I did 13 shoots this year with this cool boutique owned by two great Brazilian entrepeneurs sisters living in Utah. Definitely a dream come true to shoot for a succesfull company and seeing my pics in large prints in different States. Their story is inspiring and they have lead a precedent to many other boutiques in Utah. These are a few of my favorite shots.

MOUNTAIN FORMALS, UT /  by Ricardo Quintana

This couple killed it! We started on time and ready to get to Albion Basin in little cottonwood canyon.  After a couple of minutes their car overheated so we had to hitchhike to my car. Then,  my car decided to just turned off, seriously, it just happened, my car was in the shop the day before and it was all good.  We had to wait for a couple of minutes and even a small prayer I turn on my carand drove it at 5 mph. We finally got to an awesome location, not what we had planned but, everything worked out beautifully and I think it was mainly for the amazing attitude Ryan and Cat had during the whole shoot, so upbeat, positive, and full of energy!

 

Suggested song "Girl on Fire" by Alicia Keys.

MOUNTAIN FIRST LOOK, UT /  by Ricardo Quintana

I was dying to post this set! I felt so happy the day they asked me to take their bridals, I mean, look at this stunning couple! Plus, they are looking their sharpest, Melissa looks like a Goddess with the flowers and details on her head and,  KB could be in a GQ magazine with this slick suit of his own brand. 

For this shoot we did first look and then bridals.

Song suggested XO by Beyonce but I'm actually listening Mine by Beyonce and Drake ha.

Dress: Fantasy Bridal Ut

Flowers: Flower Patch Utah

Suit: Kenneth Boggs Suits

Update: This shoot was published by Aisle Perfect Magazine.

UTAH STATE CAPITOL FORMALS /  by Ricardo Quintana

This weekend was the fabulous wedding of this amazing couple and, I couldn't be more happy to have been chosen as their photographer.  Erika and Christian are such a cool laid back couple and should I mention that they are both seriously attractive!  I've been at the capitol many times and every time I go there I'm always amaze of how beautiful this building is.

What a pleasure to take pictures of friends!!! These I took in  October and I'm already missing the warmer weather and more sunsets. Anyway! Laurita is one of my best friends and I had the privilege to help her to look for the wedding dress which once you watched this pictures you will realized how beautiful it is. 

FEELS LIKE SUMMER - CORA /  by Ricardo Quintana

Cora feels like Summer, flowers, green and sunlight.  One more time we team up with Cora, this time just a laid back shoot in some garden and it is pure magic! Cora is only 15 years old and, she totally looks 15 in person but, in front of the camera she can transform to what ever the camera asks. She is also an actress and singer. Currently she juggles from school to two musical and other projects, kids nowadays! Can't wait to see what the future holds for this amazing teen.
