When Ayesha Onyekwelu, of Bedazzled Photography, contacted me to shoot her wedding I was excited for so many reasons. The first being that she is an awesome photographer and I’ve been a fan of her work since I started 2 years ago. Another obvious reason being that her wedding was in Jamaica! Even in my excitement I could have never prepared myself for such a perfectly, beautiful weekend.
Ayesha and her new husband Chinedu have such impeccable taste. The location, the colors, the food and every detail you could imagine all came together perfectly. The most refreshing part of the whole weekend…. Ayesha took her photography hat off and was simply a bride. I am beyond flattered that Ayesha trusted me with one of the most important days of her life and allowed me to tell her wedding story. Check it out below!
*Sidenote: If you know anything about Ayesha, you would know that she could not have found a more perfect wedding shoe, lol*
Venue: Moon Dance Cliff Resorts
Wedding Planners: TiannaVivienne Events (These ladies are AWESOME)
The reception was amazing… they even hired a fire eater!!
Ayesha and Chinedu were every photographer’s dream couple. They were down to wake up at 6 am the next morning and do a portrait session with me. What happens next is some of my favorite wedding portraiture ever!
Glamorous wedding guys… love the details pics of the day. May all your zillion days together forever be just as glam..
Oh Elton! You did an amazing job,just wonderful and Ayesha looks beautiful. Gorgeous ceremony. Very well done.
As usual, great stuff Elton. I love the little things/ideas that you come up with that the typical photographer would not think to do. You have a very imaginative mind. This leads me to my question, was the Scrabble (WWF) thing your idea or theirs? lol
Flawless!
Sandals? Nice pics as always.
The Scrabble idea is DOPE. Never seen it before, original concept?
Ah! ELton what can I say a fab Wedding and Job all aroung…love ‘em!!!!

AWEsome… Great Job Elton.. Love it when the Bride and Groom are down for a little fun!
Elton, you have outdone yourself bro! THIS IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING AND INSPIRING! I love every bit of it!
Very very very nice
uh yeah. you were right. i just DIED. the four “sliver” pictures are AHHH-mazing.
Great photos as always, I love the color she infused into the day. These photos exemplify why she trusted you as the photographer on her day. I love that she actually didn’t mind getting her wedding dress wet, what an awesome moment to capture. Two thumbs up!
love your photos elton. one of these days I’m going to have you take pictures for me. You’re great!
Well! The next post was WORTH THE WAIT (I had bugged you on twitter to update lol!) And it could not have been a more delicious posting as Ayesha who I am also acquainted with by way of photography (not claiming friendship here o heheh! but awesome chick she seems ;P) WOW is all I can say about this wedding and the posting! Congrats to them indeed and to you for bringing this wedding live to those that missed it!
Great job! One of the most romantic set of pictures, I’ve ever seen.
Well, well, well, you’ve done it again. I just love your work. I’m so excited that you’ll be apart of our special day.
Beautiful.

[...] Elton Anderson recently sent over a link to view his blog of a wedding he recently photographed at Moon Dance Cliffs. The yellow and white color scheme were complimented with pink touches throughout the ceremony and reception, making for an elegant, fun event! Check out some of the beautiful pictures here: http://www.eltonandersonblog.com/2010/08/10/destination-weddings-negril-jamaica/ [...]
