I had so many plans for 2020. So did all the people all over the world. It’s crazy but I had never have everything so perfectly planned and scheduled so it seemed weird: photo and video footage of a couple of weddings in the Dominican Republic, trip to Ukraine and Russia, photo footage of the huge Chinese wedding on Bali, photo and video footage of the wedding in Riviera Maya, Mexico and then homecoming to Punta Cana. Crazy, right?

But 2020 had completely different plans for us. Everything had changed very fast. Future brides and grooms had to postpone or cancel their weddings. Same could happen to Anna and KEVIN.

Their journey might not have taken place due to postponement of the flight but they finally decided to go to the Dominican Republic at their own risk. Lovebirds knew what day I would leave but they wanted to have their wedding made by me so I decided to realize their dream by all possible means.

I packed my bags, organized every single minute, prepared myself for a long day. Breathe in, breathe out. I met this beautiful couple on the beach and they were so happy that everything turned out to be even better than they could imagine. Anna and Kevin traveled a great distance to celebrate this day together. And it was really worth it.

Сoincidentally, on this day my flight to Europe was one of the last flights in general and the airport was crowded. People tried to leave the island before all flights were canceled and the borders closed.

When I finally took my seat on the plane I knew that I could not sleep even though the flight lasted 12 hours. I was a little panicked. I did not know if I would be able to realize my travel plans. My girlfriend was stuck in Brazil and tried to leave the country several times.

When we took off, I opened my laptop and started picking up photos and retouching them. Wow… I really appreciate this photoshoot could happen no matter what. Love cannot be cancelled. These guys were very lucky, but who would have thought that the story of the COVID would drag on for almost a year?
