Monika Normand Creative

Matt + Rachel

Last weekend I had the insanely cool opportunity to go to Puerto Vallarta in Jalisco, Mexico to help capture the wedding weekend of two Houston-based babes, Matt and Rachel. With cascading mountains, lush rain forests, and rocky beaches, Puerto Vallarta is like being in a whole different world.

The day before their wedding, we took a short trip down to quiet local beach and splashed around in the water for a quick photo shoot. Being from New England, my idea of beaches consists of smelly seaweed and water temps that reach 68 degrees on a good day. But let me tell you, beaches down here are how beaches should be. Warm water and palm tree dreams.

Hope you like the photos!

All photos are edited with POP Presets Wedding Master Desktop Pack for Lightroom Desktop and Lightroom CC
