Destination shoots always carry a beautiful sense of impalpable wonder. Being captured in a foreign land that holds a distinct significance and symbolism for the couple elevates the overall experience during the shoot, as well as the connection not only between the couple and the environment but also with me as the lensman.

Spain is a beautiful tapestry of rich culture, breathtaking architecture, and heartwarming cuisine, and these factors alone make it very easy to fall in love with the country and peg something special to link with it. This is also the reason why this pre-wedding shoot is one of the few that deserve a two-part blog series. An activity that started under the bright blue skies of Madrid and the postcard-worthy streets of Seville, Sasha and Brian really took the shots and made some picturesque moments, all forming a wondrous visual campaign. It was an absolutely charming experience like no other.

Sasha and Brian managed to successfully cross the tightrope of blending in while standing out. Love was definitely present, and despite some challenges, especially in points of interest where shooting was extremely constrained, those challenges were compensated by alternatives that yielded better angles and brighter shots.

There is always something special seeing a place for the first time. And being a first-timer in Madrid, I can’t help but just be in awe and appreciate the moment beyond the lens. Something unique, something worth experiencing, and something so immersive into life and the passion we are pursuing.

Watch out for Part II of this romantic film that came to life, thanks to careful planning, impeccable execution, and, of course, passion that can be felt from afar.
