Miami Engagement | Kevin & Rebecca

***This post was meant for this last Monday but technical issues while in Vegas for WPPI ruined all my good intentions.  My apologies. ***

When I asked Kevin and Rebecca how they met….Kevin started with:

“Well, I was golfing and there was this really hot Drink Cart Girl.”

First of all, doesn’t this sound like the beginning of another story altogether?

Second, as the wife of an avid golfer….. what is a “drink cart girl” and why don’t I know about them????? APPARENTLY, golf clubs hire REALLY HOT GIRLS to deliver our men drinks of the golf course. Girls, did you know this? Do you know this?

…but I digress.

And so boy meets girl on the golf course, boy likes girl, boy flirts with girl, girl gets really good tips and makes him WORK for it for YEARS. Rebecca, my girl, you are my type of girl!

For their engagement session we had this PERFECT location picked out. PERFECT. And so we set to meet there at 4pm. This is where Miami traffic got in the way. BOTH of us stuck in traffic on the terrible US 1 going nowhere. And we had to be there by a certain time in order to even be able to use the property. It soon became very apparent that it absolutely wasn’t going to happen we quickly made plans to go to another location all together. Oh and I forgot to mention that a storm was rolling in.  In fact, all my other photographer friends had cancelled their sessions.  We are brave souls.

Luckily, it all worked out perfectly. So perfectly that the first few drops of ran fell just as I started my car to leave after the session. Um, hello? Serendipity anyone?

Miami Beach Wedding | Yoav + Lauren

I met Yoav and Lauren for the first time on my birthday .. in the morning, just before I was about to film a wedding in New York City. Right from the start I could tell there was something very special about them. Lauren had this glow that just seemed to light up everything around her, and Yoav seemed to care for her more than anything else in the world. Within minutes I was addicted to how awesome they were and how genuine their relationship was.

So when their wedding day finally arrived I couldn’t wait to capture it. I really loved how they did so many things so differently, but with meaning … walking towards each other for the first look … Yoav coming up the aisle to meet Lauren during the ceremony … the surprise fireworks that tied into the canter’s final words. It was all very special to the couple and an amazing gift to film.
