Are you having an engagement shoot? If you weren’t planning on one, this awesome session that was sent to me all the way from Miami might just change your mind!
“When the bride contacted me, she said she didn’t want the typical Miami engagement photo session”, photographer Yesi told me. “We both quickly thought about the MIMO district and agreed that mixing Miami with old motels would be the perfect blend for old school glam with some raw indie editorial style photos.”
“Erika and Piero didn’t want their engagement session to be cliché and they didn’t want the usual poses. Rather they asked me to capture them hanging out and being themselves.”
Erika wore an amazing and colourful dress by For Love and Lemons and Piero donned a colourful shirt which was found at the Salvation Army thrift store. “This shoot is not your typical ‘stare into each other’s eyes’ engagement session”, Yesi concluded. “In fact, we strayed away from ‘poses’ as much as we could. We wanted it to have more of an editorial feel. This shoot tells a love story in a different unexpected way. We hope it inspires Rock n Roll brides to take a risk and have fun with their engagement shoot, to not settle for the usual.”

I must preface this feature by letting you all know that this is an explicit photo session, and one that not everyone will be comfortable looking at. But in the spirit of Rock n Roll Bride being about self-expression and doing whatever is right for you and your partner, I really wanted to share it! There are a lot of NSFW photos featured below and while I personally think they're really tastefully done and the story behind them is one worth sharing, I understand that not everyone will agree.

Vancouver Island in British Columbia was the perfect spot for this DIY shoot - oh yes, I said DIY - the pair made their outfits themselves from scratch!

‘Til Death Do Us Party Wedding Shoot: Angelo & Rin

"Angelo and I were super lucky to have design/photography duo Everywhere We Shoot on board to do our prenup photography," bride-to-be Rin writes. "These guys are friends who frequent the same gigs, art spaces, and thrift shops that we go to. Their philosophy has always been to keep doing and creating, not for money, but just because they love what they do. And knowing that we were on a budget-DIY-wedding, they agreed to do a pro bono engagement shoot for us in a heartbeat. I was also blessed to have a former schoolmate slash band groupie of mine, Kitty Caragay, do my make-up."
