Do you want to learn freediving in Turks and Caicos? Samantha Kildegaard is your girl.  Creator of Freedivewithme, Sammy teaches how to experience the water in a different way. You will be able to hold your breath longer and learn how to improve your overall fitness and health while having an amazing interaction with nature. All of it in the magnificent Turks and Caicos water.  "The Best way to observe a fish is to become a fish" - Jacques Cousteau.  Absolute peace. Ultimate freedom. Serene silence. Childlike wonder. These are the simple, heartfelt joys that free divers seek. Unencumbered by scuba equipment, these amazing athletes and underwater enthusiasts can silently hover above reefs or dive hundreds of feet deep with just a single breath of air. 

How are you going to ask your girlfriend to marry you? Dom planned an unforgettable Turks and Caicos Engagement Proposal, a modern fairytale full of surprises and breathtaking moments. Luckily he didn't rely on a few selfies to document the big day, but he hired me to capture it all and treasure it forever. As the day approached, we exchanged emails, texts, photos and ideas; my heart was pounding in unison with his when he declared his love to Amy (well maybe his heart was a little faster ;-)).  A stunning diamond ring, a romantic private beach dinner, flowing champagne, fresh flowers, pictures of their past trips - he thought about everything. And so much more...

The moment October hits, we’re ready for spooky season to start. Telling scary stories, perusing the pumpkin patch for that perfect gourd, setting up a marathon featuring the best Halloween movies of all time, and looking up the most haunted places are some of our favorite fall activities.  The big day is finally here: October 31st, it's Halloween 👻 Halloween evolved from the ancient Celtic holiday of Samhain. Over the centuries, Halloween transitioned from a pagan ritual to a day of parties, costumes, jack-o-lanterns and trick-or-treating for kids and adults.

engagement_turksThere is nothing like having a destination engagement photo shoot! When most of the United States are under the rain, the snow or a freezing cold sky, a Turks & Caicos Engagement session add sunshine, smiles, fun and love to this amazing experience. People say that couples are actually the same person, you know – two halves of an apple. Some couples prove this more than others, and I think the harmony of Alicia and Michael, how loving and caring they were during the engagement photo shoot, serves as a perfect example of this. Their first experience in front of the camera of a professional photographer was great: they giggles, laughs, played... and made a promise to do it again :-)

turks_caicos_swimsuit_photoA swimsuit photo shoot in the Turks and Caicos is not reserved only to the models and celebrities. It's the perfect occasion to celebrate confidence, beauty and femininity. Holly embraced the task, flaunting some sexy curves on a Turks and Caicos deserted beach at sunrise. A real race against the rain, the waves and the strong wind... with a fabulous result. Well done Holly! Behind a serious face and sexy poses, there was a lot of laughters, clumsy moments, jokes and a great girls time. Editor's note: the following are Turks and Caicos' swimsuit photos. There is no nudity but if some bare skin offends you, please skip to the next post.

turks_caicos_actressSonsoles Sanchez Rasueros is a gorgeous Spanish actress. Attracted by the beauty of the Turks and Caicos she booked her flight to the island and planned a quick photo shoot, to expand her portfolio - "I want to have a session on the beach, in this beach, because in Spain, we don't have these beaches". No makeup and no Photoshop, Sonsoles is natural and pure. The freckles on her body are part of who she is, she embrace her imperfections and love them. We had a great time together, not just taking pictures, but talking about photography, the Turks and Caicos, her career, success and life. "Fame is simply an accomplishment, a way to prove to yourself and the people around you that you do what you love, you follow your passion and achieve your goal".

engagement_turks_caicosAlyssa and Jesus recently got engaged after a lovely trip to Providenciales, Turks and Caicos. The island has a special place in their heart (the amazing turquoise water is hard to beat), so they booked another short visit and planned their first professional photo shoot: a romantic engagement session.

From Grace Bay to Leeward beach, with a stop on the Seven Stars dock and the garden area of The Regent Palms.

The couple will  get married in the lush island of St Lucia next year.  Sadly I’ll not be their photographer but I have not doubt the wedding will be fabulous. Just look at them!

family_photography_turksI love people from Texas. It's the biggest state in the US and all its inhabitants are very genuine, pleasant, friendly and extremely nice (at least all the ones I met so far). The new direct flights from Dallas and Huston to Providenciales, make the Turks and Caicos an appealing and easy destination for a family vacation. Last Saturday I had the change to photograph a beautiful family from Texas at Ocean Club West, in Grace Bay. After a stormy day, the sky cleared up just a few minutes before the beginning of the family portrait, offering us an almost empty beach, a flat ocean and a great sunset. Have a look...

turks_family_photo2 years ago I had the pleasure to meet and photograph 2 beautiful families (check out their beautiful album). Thanks to a special gift offered by her best friends, Debbie, Gary, Cole, Max, Delilah and I got together again to recreate the magic: a new background, the Caribbean Blue Hills, different and colourful outfits, and a few extra inches (I'm speaking about the kids heigh of course!). College is calling and it's time to move back to Canada for a couple of years, but the Turks and Caicos is HOME and the vibrant colours of the island will follow them everywhere, thanks to their family portrait.
