A hundreds of miles car travel: The wedding of Paola and Baldemar in Pet\u00e9n<\/h2>

Traveling hundreds of miles to cover a wedding (and practically going through the whole country) can be exhausting; but the fact of getting a call from Pet\u00e9n and having booked their wedding date with so much time ahead I guess speaks well of what we do and that brings a lot of satisfaction. On June 30th<\/sup> we traveled to Pet\u00e9n, we got there a few minutes before five o\u2019clock, after checking in at the hotel, we walked to the church in Sayaxch\u00e9<\/em>, where the next day in the morning would be the wedding and there in the church were the bride and the groom checking some details about the decoration; we introduced ourselves and had some small talk about some details for the big day. <\/p><\/div>\n\n\n\n

“Most of the times I meet the couples until the wedding day”<\/h3>

We packed our luggage on Saturday before the ceremony began because we already knew we had to cross by ferry the river \u201cLa Pasi\u00f3n\u201d (wich you can see in one of the photos, almost the first one I took when we got there), in order to keep traveling in road for almost one more hour to Hacienda San Vicente on  road to San Francisco, Pet\u00e9n; where the civil marriage, the photoshoot and the wedding reception\u2026 every stage of the wedding was beautiful, with a lot of detail for every special moment: the decoration, the choreography, the accessories, the place\u2026 Everything! But particularly standing out the enthusiasm of the bride, the fianc\u00e9e and all the guests, great people.

Although before and during the photoshoot it rained abundantly, that didn\u2019t stop us. Nonetheless, after taking a few pictures in the photoshoot, I saw Waldemar with some really earnest expressions\u2026, so I showed him one of the pictures and he reacted with joy and told Paola: \u201cYou were right!\u201d I asked them what was going on and they explained to me that when she was going to hire me, his reaction was something like \u201cWhy do you want a photographer from Guatemala City? Just hire someone from here, I bet he won\u2019t even come all the way over here, but I see now that you were right\u201d. There are a lot of ways in which people recognize our work, directly or indirectly\u2026 for me, this was a special moment; thanks for trusting us.
