Most of RLP Studio’s portrait and wedding work has been in the Pacific Northwest but of late, we’ve been getting more inquiries to take our photography work a little farther from home. Our first destination wedding (apart, of course, from the Oregon coast) was earlier this month in the Dominican Republic, in the beautiful resort area of Punta Cana at the Dreams Palm Beach resort. We had met Rachelle and Doug through friends and they have followed our studio’s work from its inception. So when it came time to plan their own wedding, they were excited to have us document the festivities for them. We spent the week in Punta Cana as their personal paparazzi, an adventure unto itself, and then photographed the wedding on a beautiful Carribbean evening. Their love story is one with lots of twists and turns and to see them wedded in paradise was such a wonderful thing that I had tears streaming down my cheeks during the ceremony. I can’t wait to see what the rest of their journey will bring!
