Quinceanera


Quinceanera, or Mini Wedding... you be the judge.
If you ask me, the only difference between the two events are the young ladies involved... oh yeah, and the fact that one is turning 15 years old, and the other is actually getting married! But when it comes to the elaborate locations, flower decor and size of these events, there's no telling them apart. First, you have the Quinceanera ceremony held at a beautiful resort, followed up by a cocktail hour for all the adults. Next is the grand entrance of the young lady and her royal court. She has her first dance, followed by the father / daughter dance. Off go her shoes, and on come the glass heals... This modern day Cinderella has it all, reception, dinner, cake, dancing and ice cream. Oh yeah, don't forget about two music groups playing in the background and reception.
This was an exciting event to shoot, all 6 1/2 hours of it. It was just like shooting a wedding, and by the time I was done, I was exhausted to say the least. Breann's Quinceanera was beautiful, this is another one of these events that I will always remember shooting.
