Dreams Resort Cancun Mexico – Destination Wedding Photographer

As I blogged before I spent last weekend in Cancun, Mexico shooting a wedding and Trash the Dress session at the Dreams Resort Cancun. I have so excited to play with these images…just trying to pick a couple to satisfy those waiting to see what we got was more of a challenge than I expected.

Jo & Stacy my new “cousins” :) were amazing. They invited Tiffani Sunshine and I in as if were part of their family. Checking with us to be sure we had all we needed, allowing us to play as much as we wanted, and downing many drinks (after the wedding & TTD) with us. It is always an added pleasure to come home knowing I have new friends and not just clients! These two are clearly in love and share the same kind of BFF type humor and candor that I share with my own hubby, it warmed my heart the entire time I saw them interact. Enjoy a little peek, and more will come soon!

News & Updates – Virginia, DC, Maryland Photographer

ahhh! My long lost blog! Seems lately I have been pretty busy with the back end of my business. I have had lots of sessions scheduled but the wonderful April rains have delayed them all! So…reschedule, reschedule, reschedule! For those of you on this “reschedule list” it is worth the wait…promise. That nice warm sunny glow, is so so worth it.

So what else has been going on with Marta Locklear Photography?

Blush – As you have seen in previous posts my friend and I launched Blush Boudoir. The DC marathon scheduled for June 12 & 13 is almost sold out, we have a few slots still left open. We are working on a Richmond, Atlanta, NC, & NYC marathons in the near future. If you would like one in a city near you that is not posted contact us on how to get us to you!

Weddings – The wedding season is starting off with a bang this year. I am packing up and heading to yummy sandy and sunny Dreams Resorts Cancun this weekend to shoot a wedding and I can’t wait!! What a way to start the season off. With that said, I want to do more destinations…not just warm sunny coastal goodness (even though those are just divine), but all over the country. So far this year I am traveling to Charleston, SC, Cancun, Maryland, several here in VA, and one in the works in NC next year already.

Portraits – It seems this is the year for travel! I have decided to not charge travel fees if it is within reason this year. I have clients all over. Most of my clients are not local to me, and that is perfectly fine with me! A nice long kidless road trip is never something I shun :), but enjoy the chance to roll down the windows and crank up my music (something besides Jonas Brothers and Miley Cirus).

Locations I am already scheduled to visit and will take sessions are:

Raleigh NC May 29/30, and June 6/7, Charleston, SC May 31-June 4

Working on a summer NYC trip for portraits too!

Contact me if you want to book a session on any of these dates or would like to see about another location.

I will be adding mini-sessions this summer. I will find a great location and host a day of 30 minute mini sessions in a theme oriented enviroment. So stay tuned for those details to come soon.

Seniors – Booking 2010 seniors now! And still shooting those last minute 2009!

I think that is all for now! Sessions should start popping up on the blog soon, and of course some super yummy Cancun images!

Enjoy the gorgeous weather VA is going to have this weekend (of course after I leave town).
