Destination Wedding Photography – Married in Mexico – Richard and Andrea pt. 3
We had so much fun with this shoot–Richard & Andrea were up for anything, and then some. And then some more.
Check out our super cool bride & groom
To the jungle!
The sky, the light, the amazingly clear blue water… all came together perfectly for shooting in the ocean
Who knew wedding photography was dangerous? Here I am, cheating death shooting from above
The resulting shot
Then we headed to a cenote, which is essentially an underground cave that is connected to a subterranean water body. Yeah, I’m thinking it too–way cool.
After shooting in there for about an hour, I realized that this particular cenote is home to lots of bats. Luckily, they minded their own bat-business as we continued to shoot and shoot and shoot.
I am surprised this actually worked
I knew exactly what I was doing, and was sure this would turn out
I couldn’t resist. It’s just what happens when you point a camera at me.
Aqua Blue Steel
As much fun as we were having above, it turns out it was even more interesting underwater
I love the way the light brought out the colour. (Which is slightly more colourful than color)
Thank you so much, again, Richard & Andrea!–there are TONS more that we can’t wait to share with you!
Now you know I wasn’t kidding when I said I’ve been waiting by the computer day and night for our next shots – You haven’t even sent an email out and we discovered you’ve just posted!!!
So… they’re not bad. I think if we had a little more depth of field on shot 2 and maybe changed the filter on 4 we’d…. KIDDING!!! ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND!!! HOW AMAZING ARE THESE SHOTS??? DEFINITELY WORTH MISSING YOUR FLIGHT!!@@
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT PUBLICITY AND PICK AND CHOOSE WHAT MAGAZINES THESE GO TO!!!! Can’t wait to see them all.

I am madly in love with these. WOW.
I have waited almost 4 hours to leave a comment, but I am still…
I want to leave words like astonishing, astounding, fantastic, incredible, marvelous, phenomenal, stupendous, unbelievable, wonderful, wondrous, amazing, crazy, off-the-hook, wicked; unfortunately, all off these words pale in the magnificence of your continuous unparalleled and unrivaled creations.
Most amazing pictures ever. I have my whole office looking at them. The gorgeous couple and photographers should become very famous from these pictures.
Great job!! Just incredible!
Hey Bermans!! haha – sorry to keep you in suspense Richard! I wonder, did this comment come in minutes after the post was made? As in at 2am?? You are on top of things!! :o) You are so right – they were definitely worth missing the flight for! Now through what magazine are we going to make you guys famous? ;o)

hi guys!
wow these are some amazing shots!! i just love the color! that is some serious underwater equipment you got!!!! wooooooo! I am going to Italy in December—and suggestions for must not miss sites to visit??!!
Thanks, Brittany :) And no problem–what parts of Italy are you headed to?
First, I’m really glad no one died. Second, if you had it would have been worth it. haha! great shots! you guys are awesome!
Holy Homemade Guacamole!!!!!!!!!!
These photos rock!!!!
wowee wow wow…
I’m not even going to say it because I am channeling the high fives right to your door. Did you get them?? Oh yeah cuz I sent a few. Your underwater gear is way sexier than my brilliant idea to double bag the camera. Eh… maybe its a good thing Brad doesn’t listen to me?!
Unbelievable! I’m less than 48 hours from being done with law school, but I’m seriously considering abandoning this profession and following the McLellans around the world for pretty pictures. Anyone need a camera bag girl?
I just don’t get it. How did you get to be so stinkin’ awesome?
-E
Mel & Sean – I have always known you all were talented, but these pictures blew me away. They are so beautiful! The day is quickly approaching when I will be able to say “I knew them when…”
holy smokes. you two make me sick!!! can’t.go.on.
ahhhh underwater!! and in that amazing place. these are freakin’ awesome!
holy crap.
No doubt these are the best images I’ve ever seen so far. Really pushed the limits! I love it! *bookmarks your blog* I am REALLY loving it!
WOW!!! You continuously amaze me. These are so beautiful.
All I can say is WOW!!! You two really outdid yourselves! Your photography is absolutely AMAZING! I can’t wait to see how you top yourselves NEXT TIME!!!
OMG, these are the MOST amazing, I repeat, AMAZING photos. I am not worthy!
Just gorgeous! Love your work guys!
I love it. The light in the water and the depth of the colors are very striking. Great intimate captures. They say don’t drink the water in Mexico….swimming is ok though :)
Peace,
Parris Whittigham
OMG! The underwater ones are AMAZING! WOW! WOW! WOW!
GORGEOUS photos! I love couples who are willing to really let go and allow the photographer to capture amazing photographs of them.
Wow! That about sums it up. You two have been up to so much this year! Unfortunately Marcus isn’t as interested in traveling for the sake of photo shoots, but maybe I could convince him if I showed him your blog.
Wow! These are fantastic. I, too, have been wanting some underwater housing for a while…these might just have made that jump higher on the priority list. :)
OMG! Un-Freekin-believable! Can I say that on the blog? DAMN Dude…..this is impressive.
Holy cow, these are utterly amazing! I think I’m a little in love – ok a lot – with the one half under/half above the water. The last two don’t even convey in words how utterly fantastic they are!
These are incredible! And what a super cool couple!
CONGRATULATIONS. For everything.
