Rincon, Puerto Rico Airbnb Destination Wedding

January 27, 2022/in Puerto Rico, Wedding Photography /by admin

Here are some photos from a recent destination wedding in the laid-back surfing town of Rincon, on the very tip of the west coast of Puerto Rico. This couple had a DIY approach and rented a big Airbnb in the countryside and held the ceremony right there in the backyard. I love these smaller group weddings as I get a chance to meet everyone and really get to capture people’s personalities and relationships.

We offer custom wedding photography packages to suit whatever you may need. For example, this family wanted to add on an extra wedding photo session in Old San Juan after the wedding. We are flexible and can help you determine your photography needs for your wedding in Puerto Rico.

Let’s see some pics!

Puerto Rico Wedding – Hotel El Convento

September 22, 2021/in Puerto Rico, Wedding Photography /by admin

Imagine a destination as grand and storied as the “Isle of Enchantment” itself, nestled just steps away from historic landmarks and nightlife. Old world charm and elegance meet contemporary comfort and luxury at Hotel El Convento. Built in 1646, it was the first Small Luxury Hotel of the World member in Puerto Rico and is the oldest member of the Historic Hotels of America.

Hotel El Convento is without a doubt one of the premier locations in Puerto Rico to host a wedding. The colorful historic neighborhood of Old San Juan serves as the perfect backdrop to your special wedding day. As a photographer, I always have so much fun shooting at this venue.

January 12, 2021/in Family Photography, Puerto Rico /by admin

Check out some family photos from a recent holiday family portrait session at Ritz-Carlton Reserve Dorado Beach. An annual family photo shoot is a great way to mark the years. It can preserve a beautiful record of your family as they grow. Originally planned for an all beach shoot, a windy day made us switch things up and choose a more protected area. I love these shots with the giant ficus tree in it and provides adds to the great sense of ‘growth’ and family.

Call us and book your session today. Send an email to info@erikruthoff.com for any inquiries. Family Photography packages with edited digital images included start at $275.

Nassau Bahamas Wedding Proposal Photo Session.

January 22, 2017/in Bahamas, Destination Weddings, Wedding Photography /by admin

It was a lot of fun preparing and photographing this destination wedding proposal for a fellow professional photographer in Nassau, The Bahamas. The couple arrived on a cruise and rented a vehicle to explore the island. I went to Jaws Beach ahead of time and planted a “Message in a Bottle” a the end of the pier for her to discover, all the while posing as a sunbather to capture the moment. We went around Clifton Heritage Park afterward to capture a few more shots. Congratulations!

Intimate Eleuthera Bahamas Beach Wedding

January 15, 2017/in Bahamas, Destination Weddings, Wedding Photography /by admin

I love working with couples who have a good sense of adventure. It opens the door for me to try something new and different. After a rainy and windy ceremony huddled under a beach cabana, it hadn’t turned out to be the beach wedding this Austrian couple had envisioned. Luckily, the weather took a turn for the better after the ceremony (including a rainbow!). After we raced across the island to capture some amazing sunset shots.

The following day we went all the way down to Lighthouse Point to take some more photos in better weather conditions. We ended the day at Twin Sisters Beach north of Governors Harbour, squeezing in some final shots before the rain returned.

New Orleans Street Photography

June 21, 2016/in Photojournalism /by admin

My wife and I recently traveled to New Orleans to attend the annual New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival. After living in the Caribbean for a number of years, it was interesting to note some of the similarities between the cultures. I especially was interesting in seeing the Mardi Gras Indians perform as well as some of the brass bands and second lines. No one I asked was familiar with Junkanoo in the Bahamas, even though the traditions have striking similarities. Walking around town, we gained a little glimpse on this amazing and vibrant city. It’s truly one of America’s cultural gems.
