Celebrity Wedding Photographer Ophelia Photography || The BIG SURPRISE Unveiled

Monday, February 22, 2010 at 5:27pm Posted in Uncategorized

So the BIG surprise has been unveiled.    Only a few privileged souls have been privy to my “special project” and I know they have been waiting anxiously for the outcome.    The outcome is that Barbie and Ken got married in a secret romantic get away in the Mayan Rivera and hired me to photograph the nuptials.  I have to say they were very hush hush about the their wedding details and to my surprise were AMAZINGLY out going and will to “go there” to get the shot.    They were fearless, hopeless romantics and so very easy to photograph.  Along with their good friends, Barbie and Ken had an MAGNIFICENT wedding, with white sands, tropical flowers and plants, iguanas, pina coladas and lots of love!

Now that I am officially a destination and celebrity wedding photographer, I can cross another goal off my 2010 list of things to do in my photography.


The wedding party!  They have so many friends.



Barbue never stops smiling!  She would make Miss America jealous!

Ken’s idea for a shot was to get close to an iguana!   I just love fearless couples.

Do you like Pina Coladas?  Barbie and Ken do!

Even the animals were loving this couple!   This peacock wanted to be apart of the photos!
