Elopement Photography

Amanda + Adam
You know the classic story “a girl walks into a bar”?
Well, six years ago Adam just so happened to look across the bar right at a smiling Amanda. Adam was instantly intrigued by Amanda´s radiating smile. Except for he was a little shy to make the first move. A little later in the night, Adam just so happened to be at the bar right next to Amanda. And that’s when Amanda made the first move.
“I feel like I know you from somewhere,” Amanda asked Adam. Adam replied that he didn’t think so, but he secretly was excited that this gorgeous girl Amanda had started the conversation.
So now you know another beautiful version of “a girl walks into a bar”, and this story happens to continue to one magical elopement on the beach in Playa Langosta at Cala Luna Boutique Hotel this past week. And coincidentally enough, I just so happened to photograph Amanda + Adam’s friends Becca + Tyler’s wedding at Langosta Beach Club a couple of months ago!
Congrats you two!
