Ale & Guille: Beach Wedding in Coronado, Panama

Last year, this wonderful couple of friends got married on a beautiful summer afternoon, in the famous Panamanian beach town of Coronado, and held a beach party afterwards. The celebration started at sunset, filled with colourful wishes lanterns, beach themed details as decorations, and followed by indefatigable dancing led by the energetic, loving newlyweds. Below some highlights of this memorable summer evening 🙂

Shakespeare goes to Boquete, Chiriqui

The Theatre Guild of Ancon‘s play “The complete works of William Shakespeare [Abridged]”, directed by Nick Miles in past March 2016, was brought to Boquete, Chiriquí, a beautiful mountain retreat in Western Panama’s highlands, as a one night only play, to delight the local expat and international community, as well as tourists.

The play was held during sunset in a beautiful amphitheatre, located at Valle Escondido, Boquete, surrounded by lots of nature, tranquility and fresh mountain air. This unusual and super fun production was enjoyed not only by the local community, but also by the whole crew, who came up from Panama City for a weekend only during the Easter Holidays to make this unique experience happen.

These are some of the photos I took of that special day 🙂

Restaurante La Fragata: New Design by Sara Battelli & Partners

Some time ago I was able to photograph the new Restaurante la Fragata, awarded with “Best Leisure of Central and South America Property Awards”, designed by Sara Battelli & Partners, a swiss architect based in the Republic of Panama.

When the former Restaurante La Fragata (a historical restaurant in Obarrio, Panama City) was sold to a new owner, she was commissioned the challenging redesign of both the exterior and interior, giving a whole new atmosphere and unique character to it.

The concept for this project is the boat (the “frigate”), and each detail, inside and outside the place, recalls this atmosphere, giving to the gourmet experience a new addition: the feeling of being inside a cozy boat while having a sophisticated meal.

Ana + Steffen wedding at surfing beach resort Playa Venao

Could’t ask for more for this professional experience… a small, intimate wedding at a beach resort!

This couple is so much fun, as well as their families… I even ended up dancing with them after they insisted I should join them in a non-stop dancing night, celebrating the happiness of this wonderful couple!

I shot this event last month, together with my favourite second-shooter, my husband!
Teamwork couldn’t be more awesome when done with your partner! Endless fun, infinite inspiring moments to capture!

Here’s a small selection of this beautiful experience…!!! ENJOY! xoxo

 

Point Break Live comes to Panama!

shapeimage_1

The Theater Guild has a new play coming up next 20th of June, this time with a ‘90s classic from the famous movie “Point Break” [1991].

Point Break Live is a theater adaptation from the movie, with an interesting twist, each night a member of the audience will perform in it as Keanu Reeve’s character Johnny Utah!

These guys over here are the Ex Dictators, “a surf gang who robs banks to finance their endless summer”!

The photoshoot for the marketing of this play has been divided in two main locations, one in a couple of interesting spots in Casco Viejo (like the photo above, two weeks ago) and the second one took place yesterday, in a completely different location, a buses cemetery just outside Panama City, focusing on the gang with surfers outfits only. The photos will be released from time to time while opening night gets closer.
