style.ish love: Carmel and Andrew, day after

When Carmel first suggested the North Shore for their day after shoot, she described how beautiful it was but it wasn’t until we drove up to the town where Jared and I could fully grasp how beautiful it really was.  It was such a dream to shoot this beautiful couple in these gorgeous surroundings.  Carmel came prepared and had picked out quite a few locations in the area and we loved each location she chose.  I have to mention how awesome Carmel was in getting these shots, she didn’t let her wedding gown, heels or anything get in her way!  I loved seeing this gorgeous bride scale walls and jump fences :)  But I do have to say that it was worth it as the images we captured that day, are some of my favorite pictures that we have ever taken.

It’s funny how on day after sessions we always stumble upon old crumbling buildings and have to take pictures there.  But how could we not?  Look at the texture and the scenery.  Perfect picture making stuff!

Andrew was happy to give Carmel a little boost over the wall

After scaling fences we were able to reach this private road and the breathtaking views.  This is one of my favorite pictures!

Love the details on Carmel’s dress.  The pleats, the ruffles, the buttons, all details to make up the perfect dress.

When we reached this area I couldn’t believe my eyes.  It was AMAZING.  I love this one of them, totally canvas worthy don’t you think?

They tried to go for a dip kiss but Andrew kept on dipping a little too far!  It took a couple of takes and a lot of laughs in between.  These are always the best moments to capture.

Doesn’t it look like they are sitting in a magical forest?  Oh how I love these shots!

There is just so much to love about day after shoots, it’s just all about the couple, being in love, pretty scenery, pretty pictures and oh yeah, brides, you get to wear your dress again!

Carmel and Andrew actually moved to New Zealand that day so we are so happy to have captured their last day in Oahu.  What a great way to remember the island that brought them together!
