This past Sunday, on Valentines day, I flew down to Miami for Mari and Pedro’s engagement session. Miami had an amazing temperature! It was neither cold nor its usual hot. This was absolutely the best time to shoot outside without sweating like in a sauna (which is usually the case in Miami).

We started the day in Brickell Key. We found a very nice spot between some condos and the lighting was wonderful. Pedro and Mari were so active in the creative process of this shoot,that I really loved it. From the beginning, Pedro wanted to dip Mari and carry her; he was not shy. These two love birds were up for anything, as you shall later see!

I love her eyes on the image below. She looks so beautiful. Mari and Pedro were so playful, it was a pleasure to photograph them.

We stopped at a local Starbucks in Downtown for the shot below. As I was shooting them from the outside, a man almost attacked me! He thought I was a Paparazzi and wanted to save Mari and Pedro’s privacy! It was so funny and yet scary all at once, but I loved it. LOL! Here’s the shot:

We continued to walk around Downtown Miami using the historic buildings as our backdrop.

The shots below were really fun to create. The trick is to wait for the light to turn red, run to the middle, and shoot away! Mari and Pedro were great!

As a Miami-Dade County Fireman, Pedro could not forget to “bunker-up” for some great shots. We had so much fun  in this part of the session! Both Pedro and Mari work for the fire department (that’s where they met).

Mari and Pedro, I had a really great time down in Miami shooting your engagement session. I look forward to your wedding in April!!!
