Arlene & Jacob are married! /// One Ocean Resort Wedding
As I was editing the photos for this wedding, it was hard to find a picture of Arlene where she was NOT laughing. As each person entered her getting ready room, she quickly rushed up to them, screamed, complimented them, hugged them tight, and gave them a kiss in true Puerto Rican style. Even though it was HER wedding day, Arlene made everyone feel like they were the most important person that day. She even handed me a gift half way through the day, and I was like, wait, it's YOUR day, why am I getting a gift? But that's just how Arlene is. And Jacob is the same. When he introduces you to something, he not only introduces you, he gives you the run down on why that person is amazing.
Arlene and Jacob are obviously full of a lot of love and together are such giving people. To them, their wedding day was not just about them, it was about the family of friends that surrounded them and making sure they felt just as loved. They also included Arlene's daughter into everything, making it much more than just about Arlene and Jacob, but about the coming together of a family.
And boy, do they know how to party! For the reception, Jacob threw off his jacket and rolled up his sleeves, and Arlene changed into a hot red number and as they danced with friends all over the floor to the sounds of her home country. What a festive night it was!

My favorite shot of the day!
We were walking back to the hotel and Arlene ran up to thank me. I love this shot that my second shooter Mandi Singer took of us hugging each other! Looking at this shot and how happy Arlene is, it reminds me, this is why I love being a wedding photographer!

A-mazing shoot. Poppin colors, and such perfect composition.
What can I say Scarlett? You are even more amazing than I could have EVER imagined. Absolutely graceful, skilled, professional and magnificently talented! The pictures are just PERFECT! You captured our day and froze it in time for us. I can’t stop looking at the pictures; they make me cry and laugh at the very same time! They stir up such emotion in my heart, I could not have asked for a better gift. There is NO amount of money that would keep me from choosing you again if I had to do it all over again. My husband was skeptical at first and thought that any old photographer would do, BUT now he knows better and he said he would have paid double or triple! No amount can really justify your ART. Thank you so much!!!
When Arlene started to plan her wedding she called me one day and said "Mommy I found my photographer, I just emailed her". after this is was torture while Arlene waited for a response, thank goodness it didna't take long!
I also, like jake, told Arlene not to worry, any photographer will do, BOY WAS I WRONG!!
you have not only captured images but you captured the soul of eveyone there. while watching the video, one can feel the emotions of the day and the happiness of everyone. I have watched it at the very least 30 times and I don't get tired.
it's funny, Arlene would not hear of anyone else but her Scarlett, I am glad she she picked the best!!!!!
Thank You!1
Oh Arlene and Grace! Your words made my week!! Thank you so much, it was a pleasure documenting the special day! :-)
