Aubrey & Chris Engaged!

....as a photographer, I'm flattered when a couple goes out of their way to work with me. Aubrey and Chris came all the way down from Atlanta to do their Engagement Session here with me on South Beach. They loved the edgy feel to some of my Engagement Sessions and wanted that feel in theirs. We worked the streets of South Beach getting some really cool and fun images. The sun actually stayed out for most of the shoot! What a change, we have been battling rain for the past few weeks! These two were a great couple to work with and hopefully we will get to work with them again in the future.....

 

Congratulations on the engagement Aubrey and Chris!
