Krystin and Jim – Live Engagement in Miami

How to even begin to contain my enthusiasm?  A great guy, a gorgeous lady with a sense of humor and enough “in on the guy geekyness” to let her play with the boys, a fantastic photographer hired to help make this a smashing success and three stunning locations.  And that’s not even considering that this was our very first “live” engagement!

Thank you Jim, for entrusting us with this most special of moments.  I sincerely hope to have exceeded your (but more importantly Krystin’s) expectations 🙂

The opening shot above was taken from an undisclosed location in one of the most dangerous areas of Miami (yes really) which however has the benefit of showcasing Biscayne bay’s fantastic’s Skyline.

The photos below were shot at Vizcaya
