Chicago area DW Photographer Monica Z **PIC HEAVY**


~*petals*~

Recommended Posts

My wedding was last week and I'm totally on Cloud 9, loving my pictures!!! So, I have to tell you about my fabulous photographer Monica Z!

 

When I first started planning my destination wedding, I knew photography was really important and one of the areas that I didn't want to scrimp on... but I was lucky enough to win a destination wedding photography contest offered by Monica Z Photography! As the contest winner, she agreed to do all-day coverage of our wedding in exchange for travel expenses for her and her husband Chris (her second-shooter).

 

Since I live in the Chicago area (she's based in NW Indiana), she agreed to also do our engagement pictures in Chicago last spring, and they were beautiful!

Monica & Chris flew down to Jamaica with us, and gave us all-day coverage of our wedding. Here are a few of my favorite shots from the day:

Monica & Chris are a really laid-back couple and our group got along with them really well.. and the pictures speak for themselves! I definitely recommend them for a Chicago-area engagement shoot or a destination wedding!!

Petals, the pictures are amazing! I honestly have tears in my eyes looking at the two of you together. You look so blissfully happy and vibrant in every shot, and your photographer did a fantastic job of capturing the joy of your day! I love the ones where ypou are both gazing at each other. you can see the love.

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
