Crashing the Miami Wedding Scene

I never expected to be on the cover of a magazine.  I can go back 36 years (well, let’s say 30 years) and never once did the idea of being on the cover of a magazine enter my mind.  So when EventDV Magazine approached Candice and I to do a cover story on relocating our wedding photography and cinematography studio to Miami, it didn’t really sink in right away.

But now the magazine is out .. and there we are .. on the cover.  I think it’s still sinking in, but maybe not.  Either way, it’s pretty freaking cool and the article that Stephen Nathans-Kelly wrote up on our adventure to Miami is out of the park.  We know not everyone has a subscription to EventDV Magazine (why not!?!), so read the EventDV article online and, of course, check out the cover.

So we want to know what you think!  Leave some blog love and let us know your thoughts!

Travis - Thanks!February 19, 2011 – 1:24 pm

Travis - Kudos to you for taking on the challenge too! It’s definitely a scary and risky proposition, but when you know what you need/want to do it makes it a bit easier. Best of luck to you guys! Keep in touch and let us know how it all goes.February 19, 2011 – 1:23 pm

Jamie Reichman - Wow! Just happened upon your blog through a link on DWF. My husband and I also run a photography/cinematography studio (except we have an additional cinematographer on staff), and are about to make the same type of journey (from central Illinois to Atlanta) for pretty much the same reasons- it’s amazing how closely our story follows yours. We are simultaneously exhilarated and terrified. We’ve been planning it for well over a year, but the fear is still very real. It’s encouraging to see someone doing it with such optimism and success! We just sold our house today, and so now we start the serious leg of our search for a property- we are also looking for one space to live/work. Yours is amazing- I hope we are even half as lucky! Congratulations to you and much success!February 19, 2011 – 2:23 am
